Hello,
installing arts-dev 1.0.2-2 from source on OS10.1.5 / fink 0.4.1 leads
to a "undefined macro: AC_Dest" error from autoconf:
  $> fink install arts-dev
  [unpacking and patching work fine]
  make -f Makefile.cvs
  This Makefile is only for the CVS repository
  This will be deleted before making the distribution

  *** Creating acinclude.m4
  !!! If you get recursion errors from autoconf, it is advisable to set
  the
      environment variable M4 to something including "--nesting-limit=500"
  *** Creating list of subdirectories
  *** Creating configure.in
  *** Creating aclocal.m4
  *** Creating configure

  make[1]: *** [cvs] Error 1
  make: *** [all] Error 2
  ### execution of make failed, exit code 2
  Failed: compiling arts-1.0.2-2 failed

This problem has been reported before on the
fink-beginners
list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg04144.html
and elsewhere on the net, e.g.:
http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/autoconf/2002-January/012198.html
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2001-August/msg00037.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2002/debian-kde-200210/msg00362.html
but no work-around is given.
Some replies suggest that this might be due to autoconf v 2.54 (other
versions seem to work). However, arts-dev automatically upgrades to the
autoconf25 package even if one has downgraded to autoconf 2.13 before.

Can anyone confirm or invalidate this autoconf version explanation, and
does anyone have a suggestion on how to work around this problem ? If
more information is needed, please ask.
TIA,
Adrian Daerr

p.s.
I just saw that there is a pre-compiled arts-dev 1.0.2 which can be
installed through dselect, so the above issue looses its urgency.
