Re: autoconf from cvs

[Alexander Kahl]

I'm using snapshot of 2007-11-17 and an already compiled version of autoconf 
git from same date (maybe this causes the trouble?).

  $ autoconf --version
  $ autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61a.299-9066
  $ build-aux/git-version-gen . .version; echo
  $ UNKNOWN

but when I use my host version:

  $ autoconf --version
  $ autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61
  $ build-aux/git-version-gen . .version; echo
  $ 2.61a.299-9066


Best regards,
Alex
