Hi Ingo. My AC_LIB_PREPARE_PREFIX is at /usr/share/gettext/m4/lib-prefix.m4 , which comes with the gettext package. Which was already installed. I still get the same error, when compiling pinentry from the official tarball: ``` $ wget https://www.gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/pinentry/pinentry-1.3.1.tar.bz2 (...) $ tar xf pinentry-1.3.1.tar.bz2 $ cd pinentry-1.3.1/ $ ./autogen.sh autogen.sh: Running aclocal -I m4 ... autogen.sh: Running autoheader... autogen.sh: Running automake --gnu ... autogen.sh: Running autoconf ... configure.ac:341: warning: AC_LIB_PREPARE_PREFIX is m4_require'd but not m4_defun'd m4/iconv.m4:10: AM_ICONV_LINKFLAGS_BODY is expanded from... m4/iconv.m4:21: AM_ICONV_LINK is expanded from... m4/iconv.m4:246: AM_ICONV is expanded from... configure.ac:341: the top level configure.ac:341: warning: AC_LIB_RPATH is m4_require'd but not m4_defun'd m4/iconv.m4:10: AM_ICONV_LINKFLAGS_BODY is expanded from... m4/iconv.m4:21: AM_ICONV_LINK is expanded from... m4/iconv.m4:246: AM_ICONV is expanded from... configure.ac:341: the top level configure:9869: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIB_PREPARE_PREFIX If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
