The problem is is that XXX *DOES* actually appear in an AM_CONDITIONAL. Right in the "configure.ac" file, actually. So, obviously, it is having some problem actually finding the AM_CONDITIONAL not not being clear enough for me to fix the issue. Is it necessary to macroize the text and only use the macro in "configure.ac"? If so that seems like it is very non-obvious.
========== However, in the process of composing this, I have determined that this: [`some-shell-script-test` if test $? -eq 0 then AM_CONDITIONAL([XXX], [true]) else AM_CONDITIONAL([XXX],[false]) fi] won't work, whereas: AM_CONDITIONAL([XXX],[some-shell-script-test]) will. Perhaps the search for the existence of "AM_CONDITIONAL([XXX]" is a bit too weak? Thanks! - Bruce
