There are at least five or six of them that I've heard about, and a new
one seems to show up at every LISA. Sometimes two. Plus some of us have
rolled our own.

It'd be nice to be able to name ``libmyfancylib'' as
``libmyfancylibdbg'' depending on a --disable-debug option to
configue, for instance, to make it po

Perhaps you're thinking of "slink"

It wasn't depot -- I forgot all about that one. So there's still one
more out there.

Hi There,
I'm using the CVS autoconf updated yesterday (from the right repository
this time :-)).
autoconf picks "gcc" as the compiler and "cc -E" as the preprocessor
when I do not specify CC or CPP.
This causes a problem on my machine which is:
SunOS pecos.ncsa.uiuc.edu 5.7 Generic_106541-07 s
I looked at Stow about the time I found Pkglink. Both seemed to have their
plusses and minuses. I shied away from Stow because of what it mentioned
in its documentation about conflicts
(http://www.gnu.org/software/stow/manual.html#SEC13) and that, ultimately,
the feature of splitting seemed to
I'm starting to use "modules" to handle this problem; one installs software
in, say, /opt/pkg/@PACKAGE@/@VERSION@/ and then updates a small file in,
say, /opt/modules/modulfiles/@PACKAGE@/@VERSION@ (this is a file, not a
directory), and then the "modules" script handles setting up the PATH,

If you want, I have a Perl tool that I picked up and enhanced called PKGLINK

I do it by something like:
configure --prefix=/packages/lyx/lyx-

Hello,
I maintain the configure.in script for LyX and since we have switched
to automake, there is a piece of functionality I cannot get back into
my script. Basically, we used to have an option allowing to install
the binary as (for example)
${prefix}/bin/lyx-devel
and the data as
${prefix
