Bug Description
When I run autogen.sh I get the following error:
...
autogen.sh: running /usr/bin/autoconf ...
configure.ac:45: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_AR
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
***Error*** autogen.sh: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status 1
geda-gaf README reads as follows:
GNU Automake, version 1.6.0 or newer.
My automake version:
automake (GNU automake) 1.11.1
The bug was introduced in
1f2cb71efdc3e9e
AM_PROG_AR.) and is present in current git master head (commit
18427bf05edffdf
Adding
m4_pattern_
in configure.ac seems to solve the issue.
