Re: [GNU Autoconf 2.60] testsuite: 95 failed

[Paul Eggert]

Thanks for the bug report.  I installed this patch:

2006-06-30  Paul Eggert  <address@hidden>

        * tests/torture.at (Configuring subdirectories): Set CONFIG_SITE
        to a nonexistent file, so that we don't have to worry about
        a local site configuration that doesn't use /usr/local.
        Problem reported by Keith Marshall in
        <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-06/msg00133.html>.
