It could be a problem with aclocal. You said that your bootstrap script worked: aclocal --force -I m4 libtoolize --force --ltdl --copy autoheader -f automake --foreign --add-missing --copy autoconf But make clean didn't: make clean CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && aclocal-1.13 -I libltdl/m4 cd . && automake-1.13 --foreign Makefile.am:63: error: HAVE_QTLIB does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL The first time aclocal is called it has "-I m4" as an argument, the second it doesn't. I don't think it should be needed because I see you have "AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])" in configure.ac, but it is something to try. You also have a line "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I libltdl/m4" in Makefile.am. Maybe you could try changing this to "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I libltdl/m4 -I m4" to see if it makes a difference. This is more likely a libtool or automake problem and not an autoconf problem; I suggest asking on one of their mailing lists for help. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
