Re: Infinite ./configure loop

[Gary V. Vaughan]

Hi Carlo,

Does this patch fix the problem for you?

2000-10-31  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden> 
 
         * bootstrap:  rm Makefiles to prevent infinite loop during 
         configure when libtool.m4 is newer than Makefile. 
                 
Cheers,
        Gary.
