I think it'd be good if automake checked its support files like "missing" and "ansi2knr.c" are up-to-date, not just that they exist. A warning if they differ from the /usr/share/automake versions would probably be enough, since there's at least a chance of intentional local modifications. I guess

EXTRA_HEADERS versus make dist [test]

2001-05-25 Thread Kevin Ryde
In 1.4f files given as EXTRA_HEADERS = foo.h don't get into a "make dist". Is this meant to work? It did in recent cvs versions but I guess noinst_HEADERS might be the right way to do it. A bit of a test below if it is meant to work. EXTRA_HEADERS also don't seem to get into $(HEADER
