Hi!
The Makefile of automake-1.4 doesn't honor the DESTDIR variable in
the install-data-hook rule, resulting in build errors when using
DESTDIR (i.e. to build a package for a distribution). The files are
installed correctly in $DESTDIR/.../share/automake/, but the 'chmod
+x' is called with .../share/automake/. Patches for both Makefile.am
and Makefile.in are below. The patch was taken against 1.4, but also
applies cleanly to 1.4-p1, which has the same problem. I haven't
checked CVS.
Hope this helps,
Christoph
