Subject: bug#25359: autoreconf no longer suffices
Date: Wed, 04 Jan 2017 14:36:16 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1wpeawrbj.fsf@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

Package: emacs
Version: 26.0.50

After cloning a fresh Emacs, one used to be able to do:

  autoreconf -fi -I m4

then configure etc.

In current master, this no longer works:

  automake: error: cannot open < lib/../nt/gnulib.mk: No such file or directory
  autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

I think it is wrong to make autogen.sh compulsory in this way.

(Obviously the missing file is irrelevant anyway on non MS-Windows
platforms.)
