Yes, perhaps it's not a good idea. > I renamed core -> Core, and this issue just gone. I don't know why that would be, but perhaps more digging on your end can find out. Here's another idea. Define your own 'rm', which will be a simple shell script that invokes the real 'rm', except it ignores any 'core' argument. Put it in your PATH, before the real 'rm'. Then run configure with that PATH. That should work. And here's another another idea. When building 'configure', do it like this: autoconf sed 's/ core / /g' configure >config.cache cp config.cache configure That way, your 'configure' won't try to remove 'core'. It's a bit of a hack, but it should work. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
