Thanks for the report. Unfortunately, you snipped the interesting bit - which tests failed; you also omitted any description of your system (which OS, compiler, etc). Furthermore, there are newer versions of m4 out there. Would you please try either m4 1.4.11, or a more recent snapshot? http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/m4-1.5.89a.31-d9538d.tar.gz http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/m4-1.5.89a.31-d9538d.tar.gz.asc http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/m4-1.5.89a.31-d9538d.tar.bz2 http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/m4-1.5.89a.31-d9538d.tar.bz2.asc http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/m4-1.5.89a.31-d9538d.tar.lzma http://home.comcast.net/~ericblake/m4-1.5.89a.31-d9538d.tar.lzma.asc | | also when I do a make install i get this error: | | test -z "/usr/local/bin" || /bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/bin" | /usr/bin/install -c 'm4' '/usr/local/bin/m4' | /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/bin/m4': Permission denied What are the permissions on /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/bin/m4? Do you have permissions to install software for everyone on that machine? If not, then read INSTALL, which mentions using ~ './configure --prefix=/path/to/alternate/tree' to allow you to install things for yourself when you don't have root privileges for the entire machine. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
