Hello, I have a binary that I use as a build tool only to build the rest of the package and dont want to install it. Any ideas about how to write up a Makefile.am for this? Please reply to me directly as I am not on this list. Thanks, Laszlo

2001-06-14 Thread Lars J. Aas
It would be great if one could add -I options to aclocal by just placing macros in configure.ac, like: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR(conf/m4macros) That way I could run aclocal without having to remember the dirs or wrap the invocation in a script (aclocal scans configure.ac anyways). Would this be easil

libtool is not removed in 1.4f, but is removed in 1.4-p4

2001-06-14 Thread Kevin Dalley
In a Makefile which is created using automake-1.4f, libtool is not removed by distclean-am, in fact, it doesn't seem to be removed at all. In automake-1.4-p4, libtool is removed by distclean-am. These are the libtool related macros which I use: AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN AC_DISABLE_SHARED AC_PROG_LIBTOO

Patches in Gnats?

We're starting to get patches which can't be checked in until post-1.5. I'm not even really interested in reviewing them until then. I was thinking I could create a new `patch' category in the automake Gnats and ask people to put such patches there as attachments. What do people think of this?
