Hi,
Iâm using autoconf 2.69 and automake version 1.14 on OS/X 10.10 and CentOS 6 and 7.
I use the value of @top_abs_srcdir@ in some (template) files that are part of a testsuite, which works very well except when the distcheck target is run. The problem is that with distcheck the value of @abs_top_srcdir@/$abs_top_srcdir contains the substring â../â and the value of abs_top_srcdir is used as a parameter where the pattern â../â is not allowed.
Question: Is there a way I can change the value of abs_top_srcdir, or define anther value based on processing abs_top_srcdir, so that the ../ stuff is removed? (I realize that I have to do a bit more work than just remove â../â to get a valid pathname.)
Thanks,
