Hello,

In the manual, http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Invoking-aclocal,
I read about the `--print-ac-dir' option:

Prints the name of the directory that
aclocal will search to find third-party .m4 files. When this option is given, normal processing is suppressed. This option can be used by a package to determine where to install a macro file.

I find the last sentence a bit strange because to me that sounds like Automake suggests that packagers should install macro files in a hard-coded directory not relative to $(prefix). IIUC that
that contradicts the discussion in section "Install to Hard-Coded Locations"

Cheers,
Peter
