[Monotone-devel] autoconf problems and a weird behaviour

[Thomas Keller]

Hi all!

I somehow managed to break my build environment so I had to re-checkout
everything. Unfortunately I'm unable to create a configure script. Both
aclocal versions on my Mac, the one from MacPorts (1.10) and the
system-installed 1.6 from Apple, fail:

$ aclocal-1.10

/opt/local/share/aclocal/smpeg.m4:13: warning: underquoted definition of
AM_PATH_SMPEG
/opt/local/share/aclocal/smpeg.m4:13:   run info '(automake)Extending
aclocal'
/opt/local/share/aclocal/smpeg.m4:13:   or see
http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
configure.ac:6: error: Autoconf version 2.60 or higher is required
/opt/local/share/aclocal-1.10/init.m4:103: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE is expanded
from...
configure.ac:6: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 63
aclocal-1.10: autom4te failed with exit status: 63

$ aclocal-1.6
                                         aclocal: configure.ac: 58:
macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
aclocal: configure.ac: 59: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION' not found in
library
aclocal: configure.ac: 60: macro `AM_ICONV' not found in library


So, since I have absolutely no idea how I can fix these issues, anyone
up helping me out, pretty please? ;)


Completly unrelated, but I noticed a weird behaviour while playing
around with aclocal and configure. For some reason mtn log creates
output if it is restricted to an ignored file. In the below case
cf562... is the base revision of the current workspace. This is a bug,
right?

$ mtn log configure
                                     o   (Revision:
cf562c94be76e1dc2f16e0b79615cf0c6a7a0b91)
