Sorry if this has been brought up before. This behaviour is a bit odd to me:
bin_SCRIPTS = my_script will not get 'my_script' included in the dist-tarball. I needed to add a EXTRA_DIST = my_script as well. I couldn't find this behaviour documented anywhere, and a quick search on Google didn't turn up anything either (might be due to my search skills). automake version: automake (GNU automake) 1.7.7 Written by Tom Tromey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
