I'm thinking I want to run a hook before the distdir target is run. What's a good way to do that?
The reason for this is that I'm packaging at least 2 nested packages in my distribution. We only want to configure these if we need them. The "problem" is that folks who don't need either/both of these packages don't want to spend the time configuring them, but in that case they cannot run "make dist" either. To produce a distribution, one must generally configure these sub-packages so the dist target(s) can see these packages. So I figure a good answer is to have a pre-dist hook of some sort, so if somebody wants to run 'dist' I can make sure that the needed sub-packages have been built. -- Harlan Stenn <st...@ntp.org> http://networktimefoundation.org - be a member!
