I think in some autoconf manual (version ... err, whatever) it was suggested that a subdirectory "m4" will be used by default for macro lookup in some future autoconf version. Hence, if we ever want to decide on one directory name, "m4" would be preferrable over "macros". On the other hand, all the autotools are *so* web1.0, we shouldn't bother any more than necessary, which is what your patch did correctly. (Actually, CMake might be an interesting alternative, especially because we do not use many "convenience libraries" but instead directly build a whole bunch of shared libraries. I've been using cmake in several other projects for quite some time by now. But switching the build system from autotools to cmake this would be a task of the size of one Summer of Code project :-) Regards, Christian _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
