I've been looking through the manuals and code, but not finding a definitive answer: is there a canonical/recommended ordering of running the autotools, including automake?
I've been using aclocal - autoheader - automake - autoconf for years, but have no idea any more where I got that ordering. I see that autoreconf runs autoconf before autoheader, and ah before am, so I suppose this is it: aclocal - autoconf - autoheader - automake. Whatever the answer is, I suggest adding it to the manual(s). Thanks, karl
