> Key: COUCHDB-414
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-414
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build System
> Affects Versions: 0.10
> Environment: Ubuntu 9.04
> Reporter: James Henstridge
> Assignee: Noah Slater
>
> For some changes a Linux distro might make to couchdb when packaging, the
> build might reinvoke aclocal, automake, autoconf, etc.
> If "aclocal" gets invoked, it doesn't know that some of the macros are stored
> in the m4/ subdirectory. This can be fixed by adding the following line to
> the toplevel Makefile.am:
> ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4
> This is documented in Section 6.3.4 (Handling Local Macros) of the Automake
> 1.10 manual.
> It is also recommended to add a line like the following to configure.ac so
> other tools know you're using m4/ as the autoconf macro directory:
> AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])
> With these two changes, it shouldn't be necessary to explicitly m4_include()
> m4/ac_check_icu.m4 in configure.ac
