Respectively, I think you're significantly over-solving this problem. Just document somewhere what files can possibly be created and let the package author do what they wish with them, write a make distclean rule or whatever. If Automake wants to include that stuff, they can read the Autoconf documentation to see what to remove. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
