That would, I expect, fix this particular problem, yes. To my taste, it smacks of an ugly hack, though. Usually, a cleaner solution is using AM_MAINTAINER_MODE; you seem to patch it into configure.ac, but not in configure... So my suggestion would be to put the add-maintainer-mode patch BEFORE the relibtoolise patch, and then regenerate the relibtoolise patch (so that AM_MAINTAINER_MODE is active when this patch regenerates ./configure and the Makefile.in's, and then AM_MAINTAINER_MODE is actually active). -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
