Hi- I'm using automake-1.6.3 in a project, and I'm trying to figure out how to add a dependency to the automake-generated Makefile rules which check if the header "autoconf.h" is up to date.
In configure.in, I have: AM_CONFIG_HEADER(autoconf.h:autoconf.h.in) which works, and automake puts the following rules in Makefile.in: autoconf.h: stamp-h1 @if test ! -f $@; then \ rm -f stamp-h1; \ $(MAKE) stamp-h1; \ else :; fi stamp-h1: $(srcdir)/autoconf.h.in $(top_builddir)/config.status @rm -f stamp-h1 cd $(top_builddir) && $(SHELL) ./config.status autoconf.h $(srcdir)/autoconf.h.in: $(top_srcdir)/configure.in $(ACLOCAL_M4) cd $(top_srcdir) && $(AUTOHEADER) touch $(srcdir)/autoconf.h.in Ideally, I'd like to add a dependency on the file VERSION for the rule for $(srcdir)/autoconf.h.in ... is there any way to do this?
