Re: Creating autotest testsuite gets stuck if package.m4.in contains unresolved substitutions

Hi Ralf,

indeed, it's not. When I use m4_define for the bug address, then I get the same 
error for AT_PACKAGE_STRING.

Here is the output I get when I execute "make testsuite" for the attached 
tarball:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/bin/sh /Users/niels/test/missing --run autom4te --language=autotest -I '.' -o 
testsuite.tmp testsuite.at
testsuite.at:1: error: : AT_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT is missing, consider writing 
package.m4
testsuite.at:1: the top level
autom4te: /opt/local/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

testsuite.at:1 is just "AT_INIT".

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Niels.
