Hello!
The current version of Automake (head branch) fails in "make dist" for
Automake itself.
It ends up with:
find automake-1.4a -type d ! -perm -777 -exec chmod a+rwx {} \; -o \
! -type d ! -perm -444 -links 1 -exec chmod a+r {} \; -o \
! -type d ! -perm -444 -exec /bin/sh -c -m a+r {} {} \; \
|| chmod -R a+r automake-1.4a
chof - automake-1.4a | GZIP=--best gzip -c > automake-1.4a.tar.gz
/bin/sh: chof: command not found
rm -rf automake-1.4a
"chof" should probably follow tar. However, distcheck target uses $(AMTAR)
while only TAR is substituted at the top of Makefile.in
I suppose, one should make a choice between TAR and AMTAR.
