Package: automake Version: 1:1.10.1-3 Followup-For: Bug #456632 I just hit the bug #456632. Note that this bug apply to automake 1.10 but also 1.9.
In automake 1.8, #296634 tell us that any texinfo files produce an
error when trying 'make distcheck'
In automake 1.0 and 1.10, this still happens if the texinfo has some
depends. The generated rule is:
$(srcdir)/kaapi.info: kaapi.texi $(srcdir)/version.texi $(kaapi_TEXINFOS)
...
So, if $(kaapi_TEXINFOS) has generated files (AC_CONFIG files for
examples), "make distcheck" will fails.
Here is in attachement a minimal example and the typescript of what I
did to generate the error.
This bug is really annoying for me. Whatever workaround would be
welcome.
Best regards
Vincent
