RE: Can't find m4sugar.m4 / alternate install dir

Yes, I had already set the PATH variable. The the bison executable is
being found alright. The file that it isn't finding is m4sugar.m4, which
apparently is in a non standard directory.

Hi Irvine,

Since install path of Bison is not central, you should add Bison path to
your $PATH env variable.
