After a bit of searching I think the problem is as follows:
Since AC_PROG_MKDIR_P is reported undefined, this propagtes to the
corresponding Makefiles,
eg in
gnuradio-corse/docs/Makefile
which contains the line
MKDIR_P =
so later on when it tries to execute
$(MKDIR_P) html
in order to create the html directory it executes instead
html
thus the error in make.
S my question is now, why in the first place this happens, and secondly,
what is the best way to fix it.
Thanks

I am trying to install gnuradio from trunk to a
“Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 5 (Tikanga)”
Bootstrap gives the following error:
configure.ac:85: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_MKDIR_P
If this token and others are legitimate, please use
m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
Then configure executes with the following error messages
caen-vnc04% ./myconf > foo.log
./configure: line 5091: AC_PROG_MKDIR_P: command not found
pgf77-Error-Unknown switch: -print-search-dirs
configure: WARNING: If you wanted to set the --build type, don’t use
–host.
If a cross compiler is detected then cross compile mode will be
used.
Finally, make stops with the following message:
make[4]: Entering directory
/afs/umich.edu/user/a/n/anastas/gnuradio_trunk_test/gnuradio-core/doc' html make[4]: html: Command not found make[4]: *** [prep] Error 127 make[4]: Leaving directory/afs/umich.edu/user/a/n/anastas/gnuradio_trunk_test/gnuradio-core/doc’

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I don’t know why “html” is needed or what it is, but apparently cannot
be found.
Any ideas?
