Update of sr #110599 (project autoconf):
Status: None => Not Autoconf
Open/Closed: Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:
I don't know if anyone actually does this, but it is possible to use Autoconf
without also using Make. AC_SUBST variables can be written into any text
file, Autoconf doesn't care what they are.
The "automatic dependency tracking" logic that barfed comes from Automake.
Automake _does_ require Make, and I think it would be sensible for it to do
some kind of check for Make. Unfortunately I cannot reassign this bug to
Automake because it uses a different bug tracker. Would you mind re-filing
this bug over there? Instructions are at
