5 autoconf problems - ID: 1760641
Last Update: Comment added ( vincentleprince )

Tried to rebuild truevision-0.5.5 from scratch.

1. aclocal can't find the macros called by configure.in because it doesn't
know to look in the macros/ directory. Need to add:

ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I macros

to the top-level Makefile.am

2. automake1.9 complains that some macros/*.m4 aren't up to modern
(stricter) syntax standards. The function-name being defined by an AC_DEFUN
needs to be quoted with square brackets:

check-utmp.m4:
-AC_DEFUN(AC_CHECK_UTMP,[
+AC_DEFUN([AC_CHECK_UTMP],[

gnome-cxx-check.m4:
-AC_DEFUN(GNOME_CHECK_CXX,
+AC_DEFUN([GNOME_CHECK_CXX],

linger.m4:
-AC_DEFUN(AC_STRUCT_LINGER, [
+AC_DEFUN([AC_STRUCT_LINGER], [

3. autoheader-2.60 complains that the use of acconfig.h is "deprecated and
discouraged" and suggests a more modern way to accomplish the same thing:

autoheader-2.60: WARNING: Using the third argument of `AC_DEFINE' and
autoheader-2.60: WARNING: `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED' allows one to define a
template without
autoheader-2.60: WARNING: `acconfig.h':
autoheader-2.60:
autoheader-2.60: WARNING: AC_DEFINE([NEED_FUNC_MAIN], 1,
autoheader-2.60: [Define if a function `main' is needed.])
