Re: [bug-gsrc] Attempting to build/install gsrc undert Mac OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

Brandon,

Thanks for responding to my note.

Below are the outputs from the commands you suggested I try:

users-MacBook-Pro:~ user$ aclocal --dry-run
aclocal: error: 'configure.ac' is required
users-MacBook-Pro:~ user$ aclocal --print-ac-dir
/usr/local/Cellar/automake/1.15/share/aclocal
users-MacBook-Pro:~ user$ find /usr/local/share -name '*.m4'
/usr/local/share/aclocal/cmake.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/freetype2.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/glib-2.0.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/glib-gettext.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/gsettings.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/gsl.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/gtk-3.0.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/introspection.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/libtool.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/ltargz.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/ltdl.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/ltoptions.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/ltsugar.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/ltversion.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/lt~obsolete.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/pkg.m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/pstoedit.m4
users-MacBook-Pro:~ user$

I noticed that /usr/local/share/aclocal/gtk-3.0.m4 points to an alias that refers to a nonexistent file.

Any suggestions as to installing a working version of gtk+3?

On my system, that file is owned by the GTK package.  I don't understand
why aclocal is looking for something GTK-related though.

Can you try the following commands and tell us the output?

  aclocal --dry-run
  aclocal --print-ac-dir
  find /usr/local/share -name '*.m4'

I'm not familiar with Macs, so you might want to try that 'find' command
on other 'share' directories (e.g. /usr/share) as well.
