As already referenced by this issue:

I cloned openocd-esp32 from github yesterday and the following error appeared when running ./bootstrap:

Code: Select all

$ ./bootstrap 
+ aclocal
+ libtoolize --automake --copy
+ autoconf
configure.ac:12: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:199: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DEFINE
configure.ac:597: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_NOTICE

Could somehow solve that by running

Code: Select all

autoreconf

and

Code: Select all

automake --add-missing

But when running ./bootstrap again it points out there is a missing repository from the list:

Code: Select all

 $ ./bootstrap 
+ aclocal
+ libtoolize --automake --copy
+ autoconf
+ autoheader
+ automake --gnu --add-missing --copy

Then I removed the following entry from .gitmodules:

Code: Select all

[submodule "testing/esp/py_debug_backend"]
        path = testing/esp/py_debug_backend
        url = ../../espressif/py_debug_backend.git

But running ./bootstrap again makes no difference. Even

Code: Select all

git submodule sync

or

Code: Select all

git submodule init

does not make any difference. For some reason, py_debug_backend is still being referrenced on .git/gitindex.

Could you please update openocd-esp32 accordingly?
