The problem is that dirpart gets set to the empty string, which causes teh following mkdir "$dirpath/$DEPDIR" to fail. configure claims to be generated using Autoconf 2.52g. This bug appears to also be in the aclocal.m4 in the CVS autoconf, so the bug isn't rhug per se. However, aclocal.m4 is auto-generated, and I don't see where it is generated from. (I don't understand the autotools that well.) In any case, I'll report the problem to the autoconf mailing list. -- --Per Bothner per@bothner.com http://www.bothner.com/per/ --------------020300000101080903000409 Content-Type: text/plain; name="conf.diff" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="conf.diff" Content-length: 492 Index: configure =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/rhug/rhug/configure,v retrieving revision 1.23 diff -u -r1.23 configure --- configure 2002/02/09 19:17:38 1.23 +++ configure 2002/02/23 00:51:15 @@ -4974,7 +4974,7 @@ /^X\(\/\).*/{ s//\1/; q; } s/.*/./; q'` else - dirpart= + dirpart=. fi grep '^DEP_FILES *= *[^ #]' < "$mf" > /dev/null || continue # Extract the definition of DEP_FILES from the Makefile without --------------020300000101080903000409--
