Description Sebastien Bacher 2003-12-27 12:54:32 UTC
This bug was originally reported in the Debian BTS:
http://bugs.debian.org/223316

"Line 33 in /usr/share/aclocal/gtk-2.0.m4 spells:

    echo *** pkg-config too old; version 0.7 or better required.

I would suggest to replace this line by:

    echo "*** pkg-config too old; version 0.7 or better required."

because else *** gets shell expanded and the command version gets
executed or is not found.

By the way, there exists same problem with glib-2.0.m4."
