Hi Vaibhav, Thanks very much for your note! Fantastic job on your blogs. I read the entry on managing the two versions of autoconf and have been trying to follow it carefully. Could you please see the attached txt file?
I'm in development/newlib/newlib-cygwin. I get the error where it tells me to use exactly autoconf 2.64 and not 2.69. I change the $PATH to make sure it is checking the opt/autoconf-2.64/bin first. I check the autoconf version and confirm that it is now using 2.64. But then when I try to run autoreconf -fvi, I get the same error as I had yesterday. Do you have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks again!
