Re: apl --show_src_dir

[Chris Moller]

    Hi,  Jürgen,
    
    That's exactly what I did yesterday--I pulled down svn 1485, ran
    ./configure --without-gtk3 and ran make -j6.  That created a file
    called src/makefile.h that contained

    which seems to be where that savannah reference is coming from.
    
    I just repeated the whole process with a fresh svn co, and it's
    still doing that: 
    
    [0] ~ >apl --show_src_dir 
    /home/eedjsa/savannah-repo-apl/trunk/src
    
    [0] ~ >  
    
    But doing some tinkering just now, if I rm src/makefile.h and rerun
    the make and install, it works as expected:
    
    [0] ~ >apl --show_src_dir
    /home/moller/Downloads/apl-1485
    
    [0] ~ > 
    
    A little more tinkering with your autoreconf --force --install
    suggestion, but that didn't help
