Hi, Dear Maintainers I met an issue when try to compile automake with the perl installed in a very long path which larger then max length of shebang , here is the reproduce steps
1. git clone g...@github.com:autotools-mirror/automake.git; cd automake 2. ./bootstrap 3. ./configure 4. make Failed with error: ... GEN doc/aclocal-1.17.1 help2man: can't get `--help' info from bin/aclocal Try `--no-discard-stderr' if option outputs to stderr make: *** [Makefile:3818: doc/aclocal-1.17.1] Error 2 The failure is caused by the long path of the perl in aclocal.in, the shebang is cutted. Could we change it like following diff? diff --git a/bin/aclocal.in b/bin/aclocal.in index 4d01f3a4d..73d5ee47f 100644 --- a/bin/aclocal.in +++ b/bin/aclocal.in @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -#!@PERL@ +#!/usr/bin/env perl # aclocal - create aclocal.m4 by scanning configure.ac -*- perl -*- # @configure_input@ # Copyright (C) 1996-2024 Free Software Foundation, Inc. diff --git a/bin/automake.in b/bin/automake.in index 479125505..55985ea34 100644 --- a/bin/automake.in +++ b/bin/automake.in @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -#!@PERL@ +#!/usr/bin/env perl # automake - create Makefile.in from Makefile.am -*- perl -*- # @configure_input@ # Copyright (C) 1994-2024 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
