Problems compiling autoconf on latest toolchain (10.31.2009)

[Sergio M. Ammirata, Ph.D.]

The autoconf is looking for m4 and fails to configure.

To make it work on my machine I edited packages/autoconf/autoconf.mk and
changed:

This line:

AUTOCONF_CONF_ENV = EMACS="no"

To this:

AUTOCONF_CONF_ENV = EMACS="no" M4="/usr/bin/m4"

This is not ideal because it is checking for m4 in the build machine instead
of the target ... But it is not that bad either because it is only checking
for the presence of an external application (it does not use it for anything
else).

Regards,

Sergio

i guess you meant to send this to buildroot or something ?  this mailing list
is for uClibc only, and autoconf/m4 is neither.
