Hi Christian, I appreciate your help, thanks!
Tried the gnubg-0.15-20060214.tar.gz tarball. The "aclocal-1.9 -I m4" command does not require any files, it just gives "underquited definitions" warnings. With the original m4 dir: # aclocal-1.9 -I m4 acinclude.m4:17: warning: underquoted definition of AC_DEFINE_DIR run info '(automake)Extending aclocal' or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal acinclude.m4:37: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GUILE acinclude.m4:75: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GTK2 acinclude.m4:108: warning: underquoted definition of AC_PROG_CC_IEEE acinclude.m4:127: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK acinclude.m4:320: warning: underquoted definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES acinclude.m4:381: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GLIB acinclude.m4:579: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK_EXTRA m4/libart.m4:11: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIBART m4/gtkglext-1.0.m4:11: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTKGLEXT_1_0 m4/gtkglext-1.0.m4:218: warning: underquoted definition of AC_GTKGLEXT_SUPPORTS_MULTIHEAD m4/gtkextra.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK_EXTRA m4/gtk.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK m4/gtk.m4:200: warning: underquoted definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES m4/gtk-2.0.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK_2_0 m4/glib.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GLIB m4/glib-gettext.m4:329: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT m4/glib-gettext.m4:330: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GLIB_DEFINE_LOCALEDIR m4/glib-2.0.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 m4/freetype2.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AC_CHECK_FT2 m4/esd.m4:10: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_ESD m4/esd.m4:169: warning: underquoted definition of AM_ESD_SUPPORTS_MULTIPLE_RECORD m4/audiofile.m4:12: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_AUDIOFILE /usr/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4:36: warning: underquoted definition of AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG /usr/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4:59: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_WXCONFIG /usr/share/aclocal/pstoedit.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_PSTOEDIT /usr/share/aclocal/paragui.m4:12: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_PARAGUI /usr/share/aclocal/oaf.m4:4: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_OAF /usr/share/aclocal/nspr.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_NSPR /usr/share/aclocal/libguppi.m4:11: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIBGUPPI /usr/share/aclocal/libglade.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIBGLADE /usr/share/aclocal/gtkDPS.m4:3: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK_DPS /usr/share/aclocal/gconf-1.m4:4: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GCONF /usr/share/aclocal/gconf-1.m4:71: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GCONF_SOURCE /usr/share/aclocal/autotrace.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_AUTOTRACE aclocal:m4/gettext.m4:378: warning: macro `AM_LC_MESSAGES' not found in library configure.in:582: warning: jm_GLIBC21 is m4_require'd but is not m4_defun'd configure.in:582: jm_GLIBC21 is required by... m4/gettext.m4:411: AM_INTL_SUBDIR is expanded from... configure.in:582: AM_INTL_SUBDIR is required by... m4/gettext.m4:341: AM_GNU_GETTEXT is expanded from... configure.in:582: the top level With empty m4 dir the list is actually shorter as the files in m4/ are missing: # aclocal-1.9 -I m4 acinclude.m4:17: warning: underquoted definition of AC_DEFINE_DIR run info '(automake)Extending aclocal' or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal acinclude.m4:37: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GUILE acinclude.m4:75: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GTK2 acinclude.m4:108: warning: underquoted definition of AC_PROG_CC_IEEE acinclude.m4:127: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK acinclude.m4:320: warning: underquoted definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES acinclude.m4:381: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GLIB acinclude.m4:579: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK_EXTRA /usr/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4:36: warning: underquoted definition of AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG /usr/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4:59: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_WXCONFIG /usr/share/aclocal/pstoedit.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_PSTOEDIT /usr/share/aclocal/paragui.m4:12: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_PARAGUI /usr/share/aclocal/oaf.m4:4: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_OAF /usr/share/aclocal/nspr.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_NSPR /usr/share/aclocal/libguppi.m4:11: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIBGUPPI /usr/share/aclocal/libglade.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIBGLADE /usr/share/aclocal/gtkDPS.m4:3: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GTK_DPS /usr/share/aclocal/gconf-1.m4:4: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GCONF /usr/share/aclocal/gconf-1.m4:71: warning: underquoted definition of AM_GCONF_SOURCE /usr/share/aclocal/autotrace.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_AUTOTRACE But this gets more and more interesting: Gentoo's portage -
