> By default, the source distribution of cppunit is installed under /usr/local. When you run {{autoreconf -if}}, you get an error like this:
> {code}
> $ autoreconf -if
> configure.ac:37: warning: macro `AM_PATH_CPPUNIT' not found in library
> configure.ac:37: warning: macro `AM_PATH_CPPUNIT' not found in library
> configure.ac:37: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_CPPUNIT
>       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
>       See the Autoconf documentation.
> autoreconf: /usr/local/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
> {code}
> This is because {{cppunit.m4}} is installed under /usr/local/share/aclocal, but aclocal only looks at {{/usr/share/aclocal-$VERSION}} and {{/usr/share/aclocal}} assuming it was configured with {{--prefix=/usr}}. There are 3 ways to specify additional paths.
> 1. Set {{ACLOCAL}}. 
> {code}
> ACLOCAL="aclocal -I /usr/local/share/aclocal" autoreconf -if 
> {code}
> 2. Set {{ACLOCAL_PATH}}. 
> {code}
> ACLOCAL_PATH=/usr/local/share/aclocal autoreconf -if
> {code}
> 3. Set {{ACLOCAL_FLAGS}}. 
> {code}
> ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal" autoreconf -if
> {code}
> Apparently older versions of autoreconf don't respect ACLOCAL_PATH or ACLOCAL_FLAGS, so using ACLOCAL is probably the best way to fix it. I'll update src/c/README to document this.
