configure: error: 'PATH_SEPARATOR' variable not set. Can not continue. #2202

Description

@Earnestly
  • Linux 4.15.0-rc4-mainline
  • GNU Autoconf 2.69
  • GNU automake 1.15.1

When setting PATH to a single item, such as /bin the ./configure script fails as it cannot determine a PATH_SEPARATOR.

Providing either PATH=/bin:junk or manually setting PATH_SEPARATOR works around this issue.

You can reproduce this by running env -i HOME="$HOME" PATH=/bin ./configure
