If I add "test" here, I get: $ ./autogen.sh Using autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.53 Locating GNU m4... ./autogen.sh: 41: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "then") Without the "test" the script works fine. So for some reasons it should not be there. I'm not a shell script guru, so can't explain why. Rob.
