It doesn't look like it affects anything in src/glsl/, at least. > AC_PATH_PROG([FLEX], [flex]) > AC_PATH_PROG([BISON], [bison]) > Some platforms have different names.

Should the same thing done for $YACC be done for $LEX? > test "x$INSTALL" = "x$ac_install_sh" && INSTALL='$(MINSTALL)' > On some platforms, this may result in a different install program being > used whether the makefile is from mesa or automake. Maybe you understand the reason for that better than I do: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=bc302b2a33ceffe454bcf443daa0ac1edc118e9b > There is a 'configuration' file.

I would think the configs/autoconf file is something we'd kill off after the last static Makefile is gone. > It looks like there are 'conflicts' between mesa makefiles and automake > which is expected due to the size of the project.

There's definitely some clean ups to be done, that's for sure.
