Summary: Fail to compile libast → libast: error: 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER': this macro is obsolete

Replying to rosskhan@…: 

:info:configure configure.in:24: error: 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER': this macro is obsolete.
:info:configure     You should use the 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' macro instead.

The usual automake 1.13/1.13.1 incompatibility.

It will no longer be a problem in automake 1.13.2.

copying configure.in to configure.ac and modifying AM_CONFIG_HEADER -> AM_CONFIG_HEADERS results in:

AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, not AM_CONFIG_HEADERS.
