I'm observing this problem on a Fedora 9 system; specifically: $ autoreconf acinclude.m4:6596: the serial number must appear before any macro definition autom4te: cannot open configure: Permission denied autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 The autoconf version is 2.61. The libtool version is 1.5.24. I started seeing this after modifying my project to include a local copy of the libltdl sources. The acinclude.m4 referenced in the error message is the one in the libltdl subdirectory created by "libtoolize --ltdl". Blowing away autom4te.cache does not help. Is there any more known about this issue? I can provide more details if necessary. -- Braden McDaniel e-mail: <braden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> <http://endoframe.com> Jabber: <braden@xxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
