Hello,
I'm running autoconf-2.69 and automake-1.11.6 on Lubuntu12.10 and when I
run distmake for my project, it aborts with the error:
jcurl@lubuntu1210:~/winlib/build/Linux$ make dist

when debugging, the failure appears that the directory "test" isn't
created under winproglib-*/libwin.
When run configure, make, make dist on Cygwin or Ubuntu 11.10, then this
error doesn't occur, indicating to me probably a failure of Lubuntu
12.10. Note, I did *not* run autoreconf when rerunning on Cygwin.
But I don't know how to debug this further. I've added outputs to the
generated Makefile, but I don't see where these directories should be
created first.
when running autoreconf on Cygwin, with autoconf-2.69 and
automake-1.12.5 I get the same errors on Lubuntu 12.10. It doesn't
matter if I use bash, tcsh or dash (the default).
