>Description:
If configure.in calls the AC_PROG_LIBTOOL macro, the command sequence
libtoolize15 --force --copy
aclocal19 --force
autoheader259
automake19 --add-missing --force-missing
autoconf259
fails to build a usable configure script. The error message indicates that the AC_PROG_LIBTOOL and AC_PROG_LD macros cannot be expanded:
configure.in:27: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LD
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:29: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
In order to exclude version problems of the autotools, I've removed libtool13 which was installed as a dependency. The system was otherwise a fresh install and had installed only the autotools versions mentioned above.
>How-To-Repeat:
I've noticed this problem while trying to build the current cvs version of libdbi (http://refdb.sourceforge.net/projects/libdbi)
Please note that in the current cvs version the ./autogen.sh file must be edited to use the appropriate autotools version, as indicated above. Or just run the commands listed in the full description.
>Fix:
root@yeti:/usr/local/share/aclocal19# ln -s ../aclocal/libtool15.m4 libtool15.m4
