Hi Peter,
while trying to fix the missing -DHAVE_KPATHSEA by adding I tried to
reautoconf, but that worked out badly: generated configure scripts
with syntax errors:
./reautoconf: using "autoconf" = autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.64
./reautoconf: using "autoheader" = autoheader (GNU Autoconf) 2.64
./reautoconf: using "automake" = automake (GNU automake) 1.11
./reautoconf: using "aclocal" = aclocal (GNU automake) 1.11
(so a bit newer than 2.63 which you are running).
The problem is that there are syntax errors in all the configure scripts:
..../configure: line NNNNN: `esac# Check whether --enable-.....
I found another instance where
fiif
was created when only reautoconfing texk/lcdf-typtools
I have tried to find the reason for that, but didn't succeed. It looks
somehow puzzling.
Then, could you somehow make that -DHAVE_CONFIG is automatically added
to all the Makefiles generated below lcdf-typetools, that seems
to be nessary to actually search for files using kpathsea.
Best wishes
Norbert

NANTWICH (n.)
A late-night snack, invented by the Earl of Nantwich, which consists
of the dampest thing in the fridge, pressed between two of the driest
things in the fridge. The Earl, who lived in a flat in Clapham,
invented the nantwich to avoid having to go shopping.
