| AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR (unique-file-in-source-dir) | Macro |
unique-file-in-source-dir is some file that is in the package's
source directory; configure checks for this file's existence to
make sure that the directory that it is told contains the source code in
fact does. Occasionally people accidentally specify the wrong directory
with --srcdir; this is a safety check. See configure Invocation, for more information.

Packages that do manual configuration or use the install program
might need to tell configure where to find some other shell
scripts by calling AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, though the default places
it looks are correct for most cases.
| AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR (dir) | Macro |
Use the auxiliary build tools (e.g., install-sh,
config.sub, config.guess, Cygnus configure,
Automake and Libtool scripts etc.) that are in directory dir.
These are auxiliary files used in configuration. dir can be
either absolute or relative to srcdir. The default is
srcdir or srcdir/.. or
srcdir/../.., whichever is the first that contains
install-sh. The other files are not checked for, so that using
AC_PROG_INSTALL does not automatically require distributing the
other auxiliary files. It checks for install.sh also, but that
name is obsolete because some make have a rule that creates
install from it if there is no Makefile.
