Ouch. Found a typo, good thing I ran the testsuite one more time... *snip*
> diff --git a/tests/ar-lib7.test b/tests/ar-lib7.test > new file mode 100755 > index 0000000..d2ef433 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/tests/ar-lib7.test *snip* > + > +$ACLOCAL > +AUTOMAKE_fails > + > +grep '^configure\.in:*.ar-lib.*not found' stderr That line should be: +grep '^configure\.in:.*ar-lib.*not found' stderr Can you spot the difference? Anyway, consider that fixed... Cheers, Peter
