> $(srcdir)/Makefile.in: # $(srcdir)/Makefile.am $(am__configure_deps) The comment sign '#' is added by AM_MAINTAINER_MODE though, as Eric already mentioned; maybe you had that in an earlier version of configure.ac? Rerunning aclocal, automake, and autoconf, followed by './configure --enable-maintainer-mode' should fix things. Maybe some third-party macro you use pulls in AM_MAINTAINER_MODE? Cheers, Ralf
