Am I missing something here?
I can't get AC_PROG_PATH to work the way it is documented.
I am using the example from the documentation:
AC_PATH_PROG(INETD, inetd, /usr/libexec/inetd,
$PATH:/usr/libexec:/usr/sbin:/usr/etc:etc)
The path to search for the program should be my PATH followed
by the additional directories shouldn't it? In that order?
The inetd program lives in /usr/sbin:
bash-2.03$ ls -l /usr/sbin/inetd
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 36104 Jun 27 2001 /usr/sbin/inetd
My PATH doesn't include /usr/sbin:
bash-2.03$ echo $PATH
/export/home/vances/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
When I run configure it returns the default I specified, even
though it doesn't exist. It doesn't find it in the additional
path where it actually is.
bash-2.03$ ./configure
checking for inetd... /usr/libexec/inetd
If I add /usr/sbin to my PATH it finds it:
bash-2.03$ ./configure
checking for inetd... /usr/sbin/inetd
[Maybe this is related to my problems with autoreconfig]
