make check problem with tactivity (Re: Compilation Installation problem swarm 2002 05 14

I think we need the help of somebody like Marcus Daniels, Alex 
Lancaster, or Glen Ropella on this one.

I forget what architecture you are working on. Maybe it does not matter.

I recall that make check did not succeed last time I built swarm on DEC 
alpha but the swarm programs I tried still worked. You might consider 
that possibility.

Right now I'm running make check on RedHat linux to see what happens.

Hm. Looks like I get the same error you do.  Maybe we should try to 
track this down, you and I, or anybody that will help us. (As far as I 
know, this does not really indicate some serious problem, since the 
programs I use that use randomized action groups still work.)

Inside the ForEachRandomized.m file, it has

include <tactivity.h>

but that does not succeed, so it appears logical to try:

import "tactivity.h"

since tactivity is in that directory.

However, the error then complains that it can't find this imported file 
in tactivity.h:

#import <tactivity/types.h>

That problem leads me back to the Makefile.am and obviously something is 
wrong with the way the $(MODULE) is being used, but I have never 
understood enough automake to really get into this.  I have had A LOT of 
trouble with changes in edition of automake and autoconf and pretty much 
I've been at the mercy of the experts on this one.

Anyway, like you, here's the make check error I see with the swarm 
source "as is".
