Thanks to members of this group, I have been walking through Alexandre Duret-Lutz's fine Autotools Tutorial, and have encountered a problem at the outset. First, I upgraded my toolset to current (autoconf 2.59, automake 1.95, libtool 1.5.18, and gettext 0.14.4. Then I created the Hello World example. When I ran "autoreconf --install" on the Hello World example, I got many "underquoted definition" errors in /usr/local/shared/aclocal. I picked the last one on the list, wrapped the macro name in brackets ([AM_PATH_CPPUNIT] instead of just AM_PATH_CPPUNIT) in the definition, deleted all the newly created files, and ran autoreconf again. That error dropped off the list, suggesting that I might need to do the same thing on many of the files in that directory. But is there a smarter way to handle the problem? I don't feel good about turning off warnings until I have a solid grasp of what's happening. -- Daryl Lee Open the Present, it's a Gift. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
