hello...
i'm trying to upgrade a project to use automake-1.7
and i'm getting the following error(s):
/tmp/am4tf8PSRs/traces.m4:822: /usr/bin/m4: Error matching regular expression `^ *\(.*\) *$'
Use of uninitialized value in split at /usr/local/bin/automake-1.7 line 5077, <GEN0> line 283.
clearly the second is caused by the first.. but where is traces.m4 coming from?
or, how can i make the tmp-dir not be deleted?
also: what's going wrong in the first place? that message is pretty vague...
