Dear Automake hackers, I am using autotools to build org-mode projects and prepare them for publication.
The nice part is that `make distcheck` does the hard work of checking whether all the required parts are in the distribution. The not so nice part is, though, that the Makefile.am looks quite messy. Very messy in fact: $ cat Makefile.am vortrag = vortrag.pdf vortrag_DATA = vortrag.org data.txt dist-tarball.png vortragdir = . EXTRA_DIST = ${vortrag_DATA} ${vortrag} MOSTLYCLEANFILES = \\\#* *~ *.bak *.vrb *.bbl *.blg *_flymake.* # kill editor backups and latex stuff CLEANFILES = ${vortrag} DISTCLEANFILES = ${CLEANFILES} \\\#* *~ *.bak *.vrb *.bbl *.blg *_flymake.* auto/*el all : ${vortrag} ${vortrag} : ${vortrag_DATA} if test "$<" != "$(notdir $<)"; then cp -u "$<" "$(notdir $<)"; fi echo yes | @emacs@ --batch --load "~/.emacs" --visit "$(notdir $<)" --funcall org-beamer-export-to-pdf if test "$<" != "$(notdir $<)"; then rm -f "$(notdir $<)"; rm -f $(basename $(notdir $<)).tex $(basename $(notdir $<)).tex~ auto/$(basename $(notdir $<)).el; else rm -f $(basename $<).tex $(basename $<).tex~ auto/$(basename $<).el; fi Most of this is required to make distcheck happy. Is there a way to make this cleaner?
