I maintain a small open source program called kionjb. I got the following bug report from a user.
> "Configure" is o.k., but "make" is stopping with the error > > cd . && autoheader > ./aclocal.m4:2508: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion > acfunctions.m4:1108: AM_FUNC_OBSTACK is expanded from... > ./aclocal.m4:2508: the top level > autoconf: tracing failed > make: *** [stamp-h.in] Error 1 Can you help me troubleshoot his problem? My first confusion is trying to figure out why the auto* tools are running at all. He's simply trying to compile my source tarball. My understanding of the auto* tools was that the user didn't need to have them installed, and thus they shouldn't run during a normal ./configure && make build process. The source tarball is built by a 'make dist' using a Makefile generate by automake. Thanks, Shaun
