Took me a while to figure out the escaping of the @ symbol. It seems
to work fine, except that I would like to add "$(srcdir)/version.h.in"
as a dependency for "version.h". But when I add that, make distcheck
fails and I don't know why.
The error I get is:
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `../../src/version.h.in', needed
by `version.h'. Stop.
Looks like you're not distributing `version.h.in'. I would try adding
`EXTRA_DIST = version.h.in'. Also, I would try avoid distributing
`version.h', but not sure how to do that from top of my head.
Cheers,
