From 411ada9995cb7d66ea2ede4334172fb9be39ae94 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Lattarini Date: Thu, 22 Nov 2012 10:29:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tests: fix a spurious failure with older flex versions See automake bug#11524 and bug#12836. * t/lex-header.sh: Here, we use flex option '--header-file', but that option is not supported by some older flex versions. Simply skip this test if such an old flex version is detected.
