Hi, Following the steps to build in INSTALL, but ./configure fails to run: ./configure: 2194: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") I'm using Void Linux, pilot-link 0.12.5 I've tried running in bash instead of zsh, but the same error occurs. If there's any info I missed but is needed, please let me know. -vc

Hmm, if I remove the brackets on AUTOMAKE but leave the ones on CONFIG_HEADER below it, it shifts the same error to the latter, and throws a different error relating to not finding the former. -vc ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Monday, October 12, 2020 1:35 PM, Rich Shepard <rshepard@appl-ecosys.com> wrote: > On Mon, 12 Oct 2020, HarajukuHeights--- via Jpilot wrote: > > > > What does line 2194 in configure contain? > > > AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(1.8) > > Interesting.
