Hi Simon, Yes, a pretty good idea: > make[3]: Entering directory `/home/jas/src/autogen-5.16.2/agen5' > gcc -std=gnu99 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -I../autoopts -pthread > -I/usr/include/guile/2.0 -g -O2 -MT autogen-ag.o -MD -MP -MF > .deps/autogen-ag.Tpo -c -o autogen-ag.o `test -f 'ag.c' || echo './'`ag.c > In file included from ag.c:8:0: > autogen.h:32:19: error: operator '<' has no left operand > In file included from autogen.h:40:0, > from ag.c:8: > expr.h:28:19: error: operator '>=' has no left operand > expr.h:31:23: fatal error: guile/gh.h: No such file or directory http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2012-08/msg00042.html Apparently, guile.m4 expects that anybody using it ought to have read and understood all the contained comments: >>> configure.ac:140: the top level >>> configure:14130: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIB_LINKFLAGS_FROM_LIBS >>> If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. >>> See the Autoconf documentation. >>> bootstrap failure: trapped exit signal >>> mk-all: line 197: 5702 Killed > > As the comment says: > > dnl AC_LIB_LINKFLAGS_FROM_LIBS is defined in gnulib/m4/lib-link.m4 and needs > dnl the file gnulib/build-aux/config.rpath. > > This means that these two files have to be imported in[to] your project for > this to work. In other words, using guile.m4 requires using gnulib. I was "lucky" in that it worked in my environment. I think the correct fix is going to be to scrap the guile.m4 file. Not because I want to duplicate their code myself, but because autogen still has glitches that cause gnulib usage to fail, meaning config.rpath is out. Besides, 50% of my build time is involved in running configure and configure takes twice as long using gnulib, so it isn't clear I even want to wholesale import gnulib. Anyway, thank you for prodding me on this issue. I'll try to rip it out next weekend.
