Hi. I am facing problems compiling autoconf with the make command on msys. My problem is very similar to the one at http://readlist.com/lists/lists.sourceforge.net/mingw-msys/0/573.html But the solution is not in sight. On running make, the script ends with the last few lines as: make[3]: Entering directory `/home/snegi1/dlds/autoconf-2.62/lib/m4sugar' autom4te_perllibdir='../..'/lib AUTOM4TE_CFG='../../lib/autom4te.cfg' ../../bin/autom4te -B '../..'/lib -B '../..'/lib \ --language=m4sugar \ --freeze \ --output=m4sugar.m4f autom4te: freezing produced output: make[3]: *** [m4sugar.m4f] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/snegi1/dlds/autoconf-2.62/lib/m4sugar' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/snegi1/dlds/autoconf-2.62/lib' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/snegi1/dlds/autoconf-2.62' make: *** [all] Error 2 There were a lot of empty lines after "freezing produced output", but I got rid of them by changing \n to \r in Bin/autom4te.in (I read somewhere that this should fix the issue - but it did not help). Doing perl --version on the command prompt tells me that the version is v5.6.1 built for msys. I installed msys using "MSYS-1.0.10.exe" I have also tried creating an environment variable M4=m4. Did not help, though. Any ideas? Or even pointers to where I should be asking this question, if not here.
