I want to update from autoconf 2.62 to 2.69. I downloaded the source and ran the following: ./configure make make install These all complete successfully. When I run autoconf --version I get the following: autoconf --version autoconf (GNU Autoconf) ?K?? Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc. License GPLv3+/Autoconf: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>, <http://gnu.org/licenses/exceptions.html> This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. Written by David J. MacKenzie and Akim Demaille. The problem you see here is that the version reports as ?K??. Why could this be? My machine runs in the EBCDIC codepage and I am wondering if this could be associated. Is there a configure / make option I need to add. This issues stops me compiling other software, as the configure scripts check the version autoconf reports and it ends up failing those checks. Please help! _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
