autoconf2.1-2.13-1
This package misses /usr/bin/autom4te-2.13
resp. the wrapper has no extra logic for the missing autom4te.
I solved it by
cp /usr/bin/autom4te-2.5x /usr/bin/autom4te-2.13
Strangely this was the first time I needed such an old cruft, for catdoc.
autoconf-2.13 does not have and never has had an autom4te. Thus,
there's nothing to wrap -- and copying the 2.5x version is certainly
wrong -- because now aclocal will invoke autoconf-2.5x operations on a
2.13-specific project.
So PLEASE remove this guaranteed-to-break-stuff suggestion from your
catdoc README:
test -e /usr/bin/autom4te-2.13 || ln -s /usr/bin/autom4te-2.5x
/usr/bin/autom4te-2.13
The real reason you got an error is described in this thread:
"Ping autoconf maintainer (was Re: auto tools issues)"
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-07/msg00352.html
I encourage you to read the whole thing. (A possible workaround for
your problem in building catdoc is to have your cygport script create a
symlink within your build directory: aclocal -> /usr/bin/aclocal-${VER},
and then put the builddir in front of the PATH. This has the advantage
of not permanently modifying the the regular cygwin environment just for
catdoc-building)
Thanks for the hint.
I forced the correct aclocal-1.4 now and fixed the README.
Later I'll try to persuade cygport to recognize the correct aclocal
version in cygautoreconf.
