However, I'm not able to locate $topdir so I dig out when it was actually created. Not that it really matters... > while autoreconf has existed since 1994: > http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/commit/bin/autoreconf.in?id=cdf79c42edd28b4972535fdcc1160f402a6d6a29 Cheers, Peter _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
