From d88892b43dc8183a06cd811690fa8af26ad018c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Engelhardt Date: Sat, 11 Oct 2014 15:27:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] build: call AC_BUILD_AUX_DIR before anything else X-Upstream: sent 2014-10-11 15:36 To: sssd-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org Cc: Sumit Bose , Stefano Lattarini sssd's configure.ac (abridged) contains these lines: AC_INIT([sssd], ...) m4_ifdef([AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS], [AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS], [AC_GNU_SOURCE]) AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([build]) When turned into configure, this will be emitted: ac_aux_dir= for ac_dir in build "$srcdir"/build; do if test -f "$ac_dir/install-sh"; then ac_aux_dir=$ac_dir ac_install_sh="$ac_aux_dir/install-sh -c" break However, with automake commit v1.14.1-36-g7bc5927, this will be emitted instead: ac_aux_dir= for ac_dir in "$srcdir" "$srcdir/.." "$srcdir/../.."; do if test -f "$ac_dir/install-sh"; then ac_aux_dir=$ac_dir ac_install_sh="$ac_aux_dir/install-sh -c" break As configure no longer looks into build/ for install-sh, running ./configure fails: configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in "." "./.." "./../.." I think the error is that someone placed AC_BUILD_AUX_DIR too late.
