For example, in my project I would like to call the script as
prefix-gnulib-mk --lib-name=libgnu gnulib/src/$gnulib_mk
I suggest a patch as below (which needs further polishing to
properly canonicalize the directory path, I guess).
and Paul asked:
Thanks for the suggestion. Could you spell out a little more what
sort of polishing would be needed there? (I'm not a regular user of
this feature....)
Well, people could manually call the script like this
prefix-gnulib-mk --lib-name=libgnu /home/foo/bar/gnulib/src/gnulib.mk
and the path should be massaged to be relative to the top-level
directory of the project. Or maybe a warning/error is more
appropriate, disallowing absolute paths.
