Hi, As Yasunari had suggested, I added AC_CONFIG_HEADER([config.h]) to configure.ac to fix the problem I had, that generated config.h.in when I ran bin/autoheader. But I need generate config.h, so I ran autoheader on configure. I got the error: autoheader: error: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS not found in configure I thought I can fix the problem the same way, so I added AC_CONFIG_HEADER([config.h]) to configure, but then I got another error: autoconf/status.m4:437: AC_CONFIG_HEADER is expanded from... configure:1233: the top level autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 autoheader: /usr/local/bin/autom4te failed with exit status: 1 Can anyone guide me as to how I can generate config.h?
