That is, are the scripts creating a file configure.lineno and executing that file? If so, can you capture these two configure.lineno files and post them? config.works uses ${SHELL-/bin/sh} to run configure.lineno, whereas config.broke uses $CONFIG_SHELL. Do these evaluate to different shells? If so, that might explain the problem. Perhaps CONFIG_SHELL is buggy. > http://www.esc.cam.ac.uk/~twhi03/config.broke > http://www.esc.cam.ac.uk/~twhi03/config.works I assume that you inserted the "echo here..." lines after running "autoconf". Did you insert any other lines? _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
