Package: autoconf Version: 2.64-1 Severity: normal
I built ruby (www.ruby-lang.org) with autoconf 2.64-1, and I found strange directory '"$as_dir"' found in build directory. Ruby's configure.in includes $as_mkdir_p, it makes '"$as_dir"' directory. reproducable example: % cat configure.in AC_INIT() if $as_mkdir_p; then MAKEDIRS='mkdir -p' else MAKEDIRS='install -d' fi % autoconf % ./configure % \ls "$as_dir" autom4te.cache config.log configure configure.in % -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages autoconf depends on: ii debianutils 3.2 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii m4 1.4.13-1 a macro processing language ii perl 5.10.0-24 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages autoconf recommends: ii automake [automaken] 1:1.10.2-1 A tool for generating GNU Standard Versions of packages autoconf suggests: pn autobook <none> (no description available) pn autoconf-archive <none> (no description available) pn autoconf-doc <none> (no description available) pn autoconf2.13 <none> (no description available) ii gettext 0.17-6 GNU Internationalization utilities pn gnu-standards <none> (no description available) ii libtool 2.2.6a-4 Generic library support script -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
