Re: autoconf bug?

[Stepan Kasal]

Hello,
  thank you for your bug report.

Please forward it to the bug report address of the project you tried to
compile, ie. am-utils, we cannot do anything about it.
Tell them to read the section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled" of the
manual to autoconf-2.59.

We apologize that our program gave you this errorneous hint.

Regards,
        Stepan Kasal
