Attached to Project - Dune
Summary - aclocal files from non-standard directories are not considered by dune-autogen
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Common
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - 
Operating System - Unspecified / All
Severity - Low
Priority - Normal
Reported Version - 2.1
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - When dunecontrol finds an installation of e.g. dune-grid, it should allow dune-autogen to find corresponding files as well.

I have dune-{common,grid,...} installed to a directory below my $HOME, let's called it ${somedir}.

Running

  PATH=${somedir}/bin:$PATH dunecontrol all

for dune-grid-howto fails. That is because macros like DUNE_GRID_CHECKS end up being undefined. 

  PATH=${somedir}/bin:$PATH dunecontrol autogen

gives warnings like e.g.

  configure.ac:45: warning: DUNE_GRID_CHECK_MODULE is m4_require'd but not m4_defun'd

A workaround is to set ACLOCAL_FLAGS explicitly, thus

  ACLOCAL_FLAGS=-I${somedir}/share/aclocal PATH=${somedir}/bin/:$PATH dunecontrol all

I think dunecontrol should take care of that by itself, though.

All of this refers to the 2.1 branch of dune; checked out today.
