Hello,
Are you sure gnu M4 was installed at /usr/ccs/bin. That's the place where original Solaris m4 is installed. Maybe you installed gnu m4 at /usr/local/bin...
Don't replace original solaris m4 by gnu m4, as the first one is needed for some solaris tools (syslog, e.g.).

Hi, I am trying to install autoconf 2.59 on Sun Solaris 5.8 for which GNU's M4 1.4 is required. So, I installed GNU's M4. As far as I am concerned there is no problem in the installation of M4 1.4 and it is installed in /usr/ccs/bin. But when I try to install autoconf I get an error message which says that GNU M4 is required. I am unable to figure out the reason of this happening. I would appreciate your feedback about this. Please help me in solving this problem. Thanking you in advance. Your sincerely, Kaushik Chaudhury Ushacomm India Pvt Ltd., Kolkata, India
