Thanks for the report. Here's the fix that I first wrote a day or so ago, but somehow managed not to include in the series I pushed: >From 135664d25e09d9b285b59012832f0e8db5802042 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyer...@redhat.com> Date: Sun, 2 Sep 2012 13:46:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] maint: disable sc_proper_name_utf8_requires_ICONV test It would still pass, but would print many diagnostics like this: Can't open src/Makefile.am: No such file or directory. * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Temporarily disable a test. This test will need to be adapted to work with a non-recursive build set-up, in which there is no Makefile.am alongside each program.
