-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Patricia,
First, automake-1.9 is old (2004-07-28). You should pick up at least the 2005-07-28 release ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.6.tar.gz It may be that the problems you found have been fixed already, so do see if the problem exists in 1.9.6 of automake. Next, read the test/README file for how to get details from your failures. For example, in your case, you need: env VERBOSE=x TESTS='dollar.test lisp3.test lisp6.test' make -e check If you still have problems, then send the verbose output of the failing tests to bug-automake@gnu.org Good luck, -- Mark -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFDtXz8Cg7APGsDnFERAqS5AJsGHMKH7vcuJVdjhW7uP6naZ0YslgCfQ+LZ UO56bY/50P0TgklrJ03ngBw= =43ub -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
