What > is going on? The following is a bit speculative -- it would need more information to be sure: Likely an old version of autoconf is invoked. If you don't have a new version installed, please do so. On some systems the `autoconf' that is found in the PATH is a wrapper for both old and new autoconf versions (2.13 vs 2.50+, for example). Most such wrappers choose the new version if they see a configure.ac, but to make sure you could add an AC_PREREQ(2.59) to yours. Surely if you extracted a tarball and did ./configure && make && make install then autoconf should not be rerun at all; that is usually a sign of wrong timestamps (or files missing from the tarball). This is hard to tell without further details though. Cheers, Ralf
