Hi Ralf. You were right about the autoconf version. I did mean 2.59, and today I did upgrade to 2.61, which solved the whole problem. It passed every test. I should have ensured my autoconf was current before I bothered you, sorry.
Thanks very much for your help.

Hmm, that's weird, in conjunction with all the test failures. > The legacy automake and autoconf are both version 1.9. Autoconf 1.9 is really really old (from 1994). Did you mean 2.59 by any chance? Anyway, for Automake 1.10 you will need Autoconf 2.60 or newer installed so that Automake can find the programs installed by Autoconf. > Let me know if there's any info you need or anything I can help you > with (e.g., testing). > 519 of 536 tests failed > (68 tests were not run) Could you go to the build tree and run env VERBOSE=yes make -e check and stop the testing soon, look at one of the test failures? If you can't spot the error, please post the output of one such failure. Thanks, Ralf
