But perhaps this will wo= rk: =2E/configure AUTOCONF=3D/dir/of/bin/autoconf where you are pointing to your just-installed newer version. Or you can try: PATH=3D/dir/of/bin/autoconf:$PATH =2E/configure to ensure that the first 'autoconf' on the PATH lookup is the new one. --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --7EIQ9qcsofptBgcTgxaP1RQuBDbWR6pW0-- --scnRBlw58v4RFGdqKBM4VBFKVeagDFLp1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJYZUcoAAoJEKeha0olJ0NqJh4H/1yzPalbBV1V413+EMJZlM0t n1Tm2pSLOVpoFnGq17fzKHALAiCmEqUZYmKoQC8ghlNK67joq3ANAOHwkDC4CzUo qHD8ldgem35pzNy5uxd4CLa1lxw8TuMDc/UlRP8gVYHS6pgcCaroFDpZ8Bx6O1F7 9DcTgeC9mwCdKgY2D3hVL8dIdnSId2TjIrMoqSlE8s8dhXvKQv9B4jtREL7CI2N1 4bGrBA/Q+QAMq1v3b5/YYn3CMBsetGm34Ds66aiat4sqVFZ8mo/T5P+afgX3lkLu ADBRGT8PXBQwp1+ldByzM9e6b4lAJaK3uxj+ep7KU9O4FCrhq5EicSKd2BsvY3I= =wDEy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --scnRBlw58v4RFGdqKBM4VBFKVeagDFLp1-- From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sat Jul 15 16:43:04 2017 Received: (at control) by debbugs.gnu.org; 15 Jul 2017 20:43:04 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:40683 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1dWTu3-0002DW-WE for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Sat, 15 Jul 2017 16:43:04 -0400 Received: from eggs.gnu.org ([208.118.235.92]:55176) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1dWTu2-0002Cv-12 for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Sat, 15 Jul 2017 16:43:02 -0400 Received: from Debian-exim by eggs.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1dWTtr-0008Us-Ud for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Sat, 15 Jul 2017 16:42:56 -0400 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.3.2 (2011-06-06) on eggs.gnu.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-1.9 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_00,RP_MATCHES_RCVD autolearn=disabled version=3.3.2 Received: from fencepost.gnu.org ([2001:4830:134:3::e]:35954) by eggs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1dWTtr-0008Um-RQ for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Sat, 15 Jul 2017 16:42:51 -0400 Received: from arennes-653-1-267-199.w109-218.abo.wanadoo.fr ([109.218.42.199]:50770 helo=pc10.home) by fencepost.gnu.org with esmtpsa (TLS1.2:RSA_AES_256_CBC_SHA1:256) (Exim 4.82) (envelope-from ) id 1dWTtr-0004TU-8r for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Sat, 15 Jul 2017 16:42:51 -0400 Date: Sat, 15 Jul 2017 22:42:49 +0200 Message-Id: <87vamtfn3q.fsf@pc10.home> To: control@debbugs.gnu.org From: Mathieu Lirzin Subject: control message for bug #25290 X-detected-operating-system: by eggs.gnu.org: GNU/Linux 2.2.x-3.x [generic] X-Received-From: 2001:4830:134:3::e X-Spam-Score: -5.0 (-----) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: control X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.18 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sender: "Debbugs-submit" X-Spam-Score: -5.0 (-----) tags 25290 notabug close 25290
