Hello,
I am using autoconf 2.61 with automake 1.10.1 .
I noticed in autoconf.m4f and general.m4 that AC_CANONICAL_TARGET is
supposed to come before AC_ARG_PROGRAM . This is not very clear
documentated in AC_ARG_PROGRAM.
Moreover, calling AC_ARG_PROGRAM after AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE produces
warnings for multiple calls of AC_ARG_PROGRAM. While the documentation
of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE goes beyond the documentation of autoconf, I think
in AC_ARG_PROGRAM shall be written the relation to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
Only in this way people can find out what is wrong, when they include
both AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE and AM_ARG_PROGRAM is this order. (Excuse me, if
this information is implied from some other source of documentation).
Greetings,
Дилян
