It didn't go directly into the space. I have try it, it didn't work and
they I have answered you that it didn't work. Than Alexandre posted his
mail and his solution worked.
:-)

But it isn't yet very clear to me: are there any drawbacks of using that
ACLOCAL = ... ?
Actually the way I am using it is:

ACLOCAL = @ACLOCAL@ -I /usr/local/share/aclocal

on the presumption that the aclocal will call by default the
/usr/share/aclocal. But, on systems where aclocal was set to search by
default in the /usr/local/share/aclocal, this will generate errors as
the aclocal will search 2 times the same dir. Is there any
general-solution for this problem ?

TIA,

Ionutz
