Hi, using a configure.ac file with just four lines: AC_INIT([foo], [1]) AC_PROG_INSTALL AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile]) AC_OUTPUT I can produce a configure script by running `autoreconf -fi`, however, running the then-created ./configure leads to: configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in "." "./.." "./../.." On IRC it was suggested to add in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE; however, I am not planning on using automake for this sample. Why did autoreconf not copy install-sh? This looks a little like a bug. :) thanks, Jan _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
