bug#42051: Automake Bug

[Humphrey (US), Colten L]

Hello,

 

I am attempting to build a project using autotools; however, I keep getting this error. My project builds just fine on an iHAwk PC using the same version of the autotools. I am trying to build it in a RHEL virtual machine though, and it won’t work.

 

Base on my reading this bug may actually be coming out of autoconf. I am hoping you can point in the correct direction on how to resolve these issues.

 

Trace:

 

$ automake

Use of uninitialized value $msg in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/bin/autom4te line 1027.

Use of uninitialized value $stacktrace in pattern match (m//) at /usr/bin/autom4te line 1027.

automake: error: autoconf failed with exit status: 1

 

Thank you,
