Hi,
Is there an option to yield an error instead of a warning if Makefile.in needs to be regenerated, but can't? The case before me is that iptables's Makefile.am in openSUSE is patched after tarball extraction. But, due to 1. $PEBKAC not calling autoreconf, 2. the system having automake-1.12 instead, Makefile.in was not regenerated, which ultimately led to files not being shipped in the resulting RPM. I would like to catch this case at the auto* level.
