RE: Help: Missing something simple...


A little expansion...

* I've tried this with automake 1.2 and 1.4
* I've tried this with autoconf 2.12 and 2.13
* I'm using GNU m4 v1.4

Exactly the same results each time.  I believe the above installations are
correct, but is there something I could do to verify it other than use
'--version' flag which reports the right information.  It appears that
aclocal.m4 isn't having an effect on the output (except to cause
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE to go away).  Any ideas?

I believe that autoconf-2.12 is not compatible with automake-1.4
Use autoconf-2.13, otherwise some variables will not be substituted.

Unfortunately, I don't see any graceful way for automake to enforce using
autoconf-2.13.
