Run 'make dist' on a new enough machine and use the resulting tarball.

So I'm not inclined to support that; I don't even have a distribution here that uses it, *and* (I repeat myself) normal users should be using release tarballs/tarballs made from "make dist". FWIW autoconf 2.61 was released in 2006 so it's not new by any definition. -mato _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
