I didn't want to upgrade the system Perl further (or indeed downgrade it), since that would risk the stability of my Ubuntu installation.
So, I worked around the bug by installing `automake` using brew, and prepending the directory for `automake` (and only `automake`) to my path. This suggests that the problem with Perl is indeed around process exit (since in my scenario, `autoreconf` is still the Ubuntu version, only `automake` is not). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2059079 Title: automake crashes on every single call To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/automake-1.16/+bug/2059079/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
