Description of problem: when using autoconf, the use a the configure file raises an error on the line : "case `(ac_space=' '; set | grep ac_space) 2>&1`" In fact, the generated configure file has a syntax error : system=MP-RAS-`awk '{print }' /etc/.relid'` replaced with system=MP-RAS-`awk '{print }' /etc/.relid` then OK Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: using configure script after autoconf Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: syntax error Expected results: Additional info:
Please show the configure.ac file with which you observe this. It seems it's that which has a bug/typo. Or did you want to report that? If yes: then there is no bug in Autoconf, but in the package the configure.ac file originates in (or maybe you only wanted to report a suboptimal error message? If yes then I agree, but also then this can be closed as wontfix, as getting the shell to do decent error reporting is neigh impossible). Hope that helps, Ralf
I'm closing this now as it is either a bug in the package he wants to compile or something we can't fix anyway.
