Description Kevin 1999-05-22 11:39:38 UTC

this is an exact printout of the error message:
autoconf: Undefined macros:
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL

Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 1999-05-22 13:00:59 UTC

Please supply the name-version-release of autoconf that you are
using as well as sufficient context for us to reproduce this bug.

Comment 2 Kevin 1999-05-22 23:14:59 UTC

I believe it was autoconf 4.13-5, and this error occurred while I was
trying to compile gettext....brb with the exact version #'s.

Comment 3 kevmcc 1999-05-22 23:42:59 UTC

ok...the exact version #'s are as follows:
autoconf-2.13-5
gettext-0.10.35-10
You can duplicate this error as follows
rpm -ba --clean --rmsource --sign --target i686-redhat-linux
gettext-0.10.35.spec
This is the exact command I ran after I did an rpm -i -v
gettext-0.10.35-8.src.rpm and I was in my SPECS dir.
I have successfully installed and recompiled 99 % of my other packages
this same way (trying to optimize for i686..and yes...I edited my
/usr/lib/rpm/macros file and changed i386 to i686..some of the package
sources had to be edited, but I managed) didn't edit gettext though.
suggestions?
Kevin

Comment 4 Jeff Johnson 1999-09-05 14:54:59 UTC

Your test case (w/o --sign) works with
autoconf-2.13-5
gettext-0.10.35-12
