The subject says it all. I'm getting a warning message running autoreconf that I've never seen before. Here's the full output: $ autoreconf -fvi autoreconf: Entering directory `.' autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4 autom4te: cannot lock autom4te.cache/requests with mode 2: Invalid argument autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing autom4te: cannot lock autom4te.cache/requests with mode 2: Invalid argument autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool autoreconf: running: /porters/ecloud/src/all_source/build/install/bin/autoconf --force autom4te: cannot lock autom4te.cache/requests with mode 2: Invalid argument autoreconf: running: /porters/ecloud/src/all_source/build/install/bin/autoheader --force autom4te: cannot lock autom4te.cache/requests with mode 2: Invalid argument autoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy --force-missing autom4te: cannot lock autom4te.cache/requests with mode 2: Invalid argument autoreconf: Leaving directory `.' I'm not sure what information is relevant here. I'm using m4 1.4.8, autoconf 2.61 and automake 1.10 with the patch so .deps gets created properly. I built m4, autoconf, and automake from source using gcc 3.2. I've run this many times on cygwin, linux and solaris with no trouble. I built m4, autoconf and automake on linux and solaris from source using gcc 3.4.x. I didn't build the cygwin tools myself. I see these warnings on an HP-UX 11 machine. Do you need more details about this machine? More details about my configure.ac? The configure script seems to get generated fine. When I run it, the expected things happen. Unfortunately because I'm still porting things to HP-UX it doesn't get all the way through... Thanks much for any information you have on this. -DB _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
