I agree, the files generated by ./autogen.sh should be included in tarball, but not in the repo.
Additional prerequisites (autoconf, ruby) for builds from svn are IMO OK.

I agree.

At least we should put a message into *.mk files that would make it
clear that they are generated.


Yes.

For a release tarball, It IMO also makes sense to include util/parser.tab.c. It is platform-independent and rarely changed. This would remove bison from the list of prerequisites.


BTW: autogen.sh should "touch stamp-h.in" to be consistent with the Makefile rule for config.h.in.

What difference would it make?



$ patch < patch_changing_configure.ac_or_aclocal.m4

$ ./autogen.sh # runs autoheader etc.

$ ./configure

$ make # re-runs autoheader because stamp-h.in was not updated
