This is getting strange - To summarize: - Fails on Ubuntu (what version?), but not on Debian - M4 check fails on autoconf2.64, works on 2.63 - But the M4 check is almost completely the same for the two versions - The two tests done by the configure script succeeds when run by hand Does it also fail if you prepend output/host/bin:output/host/usr/bin to the path before running configure by hand (E.G. a setup very close to how it's done in buildroot)? It's hard for me to debug it here as I cannot reproduce it. It would be very helpful if you could add a few debug echo lines to ./configure around line 2356, so we can see what's going on. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
