RE: Unable to install M4 1.4.17 using PGI 15.10 compilers

[Stewart, Adam James]

Thanks everybody,

I applied the patch to m4/extern-inline.m4 successfully, but now I am getting 
the following error message during make:

CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh 
/tmp/ajstewart/spack-stage/spack-stage-wHnXsx/m4-1.4.17/build-aux/missing 
aclocal-1.14 -I m4
/tmp/ajstewart/spack-stage/spack-stage-wHnXsx/m4-1.4.17/build-aux/missing: line 
81: aclocal-1.14: command not found
WARNING: 'aclocal-1.14' is missing on your system.
         You should only need it if you modified 'acinclude.m4' or
         'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
         The 'aclocal' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
         It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
         <http://www.perl.org/>
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 127

Any idea what went wrong?

Adam

Thanks, I installed that.
