Comment (by SimonKing):
Can you help me to solve the following problem, please?
I would like to add a little test script that relies on a file test.reg
that can be found in the same directory as modular_resolution.h.
In configure.ac, I have `AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([src/modular_resolution.h])`
When I go to a new directory and do
{{{
/path/to/sources/of/modular_resolution/configure --prefix=`pwd`
}}}
then `make check` works. The file test.reg is sought in
/path/to/source/of/modular_resolution/src, where it can indeed be found.
However, when I do `make distcheck` (which is a target provided by
autotools), then first the distdir is created, and in distdir/_build the
package is built and tested. Building it works fine. However, the test
fails, because this time test.reg is sought in `../../src`. Apparently the
test is executed in distdir/_build, not in distdir/_build/src. Thus, it
should be sought in `../src`.
In other words, when doing "make check", an absolute path is used, whereas
in "make distcheck" a wrong relative path is used.
How can that be fixed?
