Also, "info aclocal" seems to do the correct thing on my system anyway, even with the current naming: $ info aclocal File: automake-1.11.info, Node: aclocal Invocation, Next: ... 6.3 Auto-generating aclocal.m4 ============================== Automake includes a number of Autoconf macros that can be used in your package (*note Macros::); some of them are actually required by Automake in certain situations. These macros must be defined in your `aclocal.m4'; otherwise they will not be seen by `autoconf'. So the current naming is not even an inconvenience for the users of the command-line info reader. I'm thus closing this bug as "wontfix". Regards, Stefano
