Hey Bruce,
One more bug in pre12...
Running 'make dist-gzip' or any other 'dist-*' causes a blow up in the
libopts tear off. The problem is that EXTRA_DIST in the Makefile.am
includes the directory 'autoopts' which I think it confuses into
beliving it should build a binary of the same name using autoopts.c
Since there is no "autoopts_PROGRAM" variable, this would be an automake bug
and an autogen problem. I guess I can accommodate by expanding the contents
of the directory. I'm constructing the "Makefile.am" on the fly, after all. :)
I see the problem in mklibsrc.sh, but I don't want to submit a fix,
since it might have evil effects (like including your source control
subdirs if you're using CVS or subversion). It shouldn't be a
difficult fix though.
I'm still using CVS. The fix is to fully enumerate the EXTRA_DIST.
Thank you! Regards, Bruce
