I encountered the following problems on autoconf 2.57g on HP-UX 11.00:
1. On "make install", config/install-sh did not have execute
permission. I added it then install went ok.
2. When running autoheader, I got:
Use of uninitialized value in split at /usr/local/bin/autom4te at line
1008.
Use of uninitialized value in concatentation (.) or string at
/usr/local/bin/autom4te at line 1007.
unknown channel For example, try the following from the top-level
source
directory: at /usr/local/share/autoconf/Autom4te/Channels.pm
line 538
Autom4te::Channels::msg(' For example, try the following
from the top-level sourc...','undef','warning: ') called at
/usr/local/bin/autom4te line 1007
autoheader: /usr/local/bin/autom4te failed with exit status: 1
Please let me know what other info I can supply to help diagnose this.
Thanks,
-Steve
