Versions: ac 2.57, am 1.7.2
This works:
---8<---
AC_INIT(tools, 0.1)
AC_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)
AC_OUTPUT
---8<---
This does not:
---8<---
AC_INIT(tools, 0.1)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
AC_OUTPUT
---8<---
This does not, either:
---8<---
AC_INIT(tools, 0.1)
AC_CANONICAL_HOST
AC_OUTPUT
---8<---
(it works = autoreconf && ./configure works)
It seems like several macros cause the generated configure script to
check for unneeded stuff (unneeded thus not imported by autoreconf).
What's up ?
