Re: Automake version 1.4 in CygWin vs. current Automake 1.9.2 ...

Incidentally, the command referenced there:

/usr/sbin/alternatives --set automake /usr/bin/automake-1.4

never worked for me.  I just tried all permutations of automake again and
only /usr/bin/automake-1.9 is accepted.  All others give something like:

/usr/bin/automake-1.4 has not been configured as an alternative for
automake

Sounds like, for whatever reason, the postinstall scripts were never executed. Take a look at /var/lib/alternatives/automake. It should look something like this:
