Automake-2.54
Automake-1.6.3
When I can configure and compile a project that I am working on the
automake and autoconf files. When I run "make -j4" it works fine. But
when I try to do "make distcheck" I get back:
config.status: creating po/POTFILES
config.status: creating po/Makefile
config.status: executing default commands
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/storri/src/xine-ui/xine-ui-0.9.14/=build'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `m4//_xine.m4', needed by
`../aclocal.m4'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/storri/src/xine-ui/xine-ui-0.9.14/=build'
The Makefile line in question I believe is:
$(ACLOCAL_M4): configure.ac m4//_xine.m4 m4//aa.m4 m4//codeset.m4
m4//gettext.m4 m4//glibc21.m4 m4//iconv.m4 m4//isc-posix.m4
m4//lcmessage.m4 m4//ORBit.m4 m4//progtest.m4 m4//readline.m4
cd $(srcdir) && $(ACLOCAL) $(ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS)
The Makefile.am from the m4 directory says:
##
## Process this file with automake to produce Makefile.in
##
EXTRA_DIST = \
ORBit.m4 \
aa.m4 \
codeset.m4 \
gettext.m4 \
glibc21.m4 \
iconv.m4 \
isc-posix.m4 \
lcmessage.m4 \
progtest.m4 \
readline.m4 \
_xine.m4
I cannot see what is up here. I apologize for posting to two lists but I was
which one was most relevant.
