That's what I do in a similar situation. In all regular cases it will be just a single file: ac_file_inputs="$ac_file.in" This issue of multiple input files can happen only occasionally when you use: # You can override an input file name by appending to FILE a # colon-separated list of input files. Examples: # # AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile:boiler/top.mk:boiler/bot.mk] # [lib/Makefile:boiler/lib.mk]) Regards, Lace
