Right now, AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR can only support a single directory. It would probably be a good idea to let it support multiple directories (and/or allow multiple calls to append to the directory list), but that would require patches. > > How can I solve that (if it's possible) ? Without patches, the best you can do is pick which of your three directories should be the primary one to contain any m4 files installed during autoreconf; the remaining directories are still included via ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS when running aclocal, but aclocal will only modify the primary directory registered via AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR. > > PS: in the top level Makefile.am, I have set ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to -I m4 > -I m4/foo -I m4/bar Yes, that is the correct way to read macros from multiple locations. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
