Package: autoconf Version: 2.59a-3 Severity: normal The configure scripts generated by autoconf do not work on paths containing commas. 'configure' gets almost to the end, then spews:
sed: -e expression #1, char 322: Unknown option to 's' config.status: creating amplot/amplot.sh sed: -e expression #1, char 322: Unknown option to 's' config.status: creating amplot/Makefile sed: -e expression #1, char 320: Unknown option to 's' config.status: creating changer-src/chg-manual.sh sed: -e expression #1, char 335: Unknown option to 's' config.status: creating changer-src/chg-multi.sh sed: -e expression #1, char 333: Unknown option to 's' config.status: creating changer-src/chg-mtx.sh sed: -e expression #1, char 329: Unknown option to 's' (et cetera) and generates empty Makefiles. This causes problems when trying to use configure scripts from paths stored on SFS. (Note on versions: I initially checked this with 2.53-2 from stable before installing 2.59a-3 from unstable.) -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux pokey 2.4.27 #1 Tue Aug 31 11:56:34 MDT 2004 i686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 Versions of packages autoconf depends on: ii debianutils 1.16.2woody1 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii m4 1.4-14 a macro processing language ii perl 5.6.1-8.8 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
