-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Andreas,
According to Andreas Büning on 5/4/2006 2:39 PM: > Hello! > > I've just compiled m4 1.4.4 on OS/2, and I had to modify some Makefile.in > files (see patches below). > > I've made the following changes: > - Used $(OBJEXT) and $(EXEEXT) when necessary. @OBJEXT@ and @EXEEXT@ > represent the object file and executable file extensions, and both > are supported by all current autoconf versions. > - Added a .c.obj rule like automake does. > - Added $(CFLAGS) to $(LINK) because a) automake does it, too, and > b) many users might expect this. > - If I might suggest to insert m4.info into the PREFIX/info/dir file > so that m4.info can be found by the info reader. I added some code > from an automake-generated Makefile to doc/Makefile.in to call > install-info for the 'install' and 'uninstall' targets. Thanks for the report. Your changes amount to quite a few lines of code, would you be willing to sign a copyright disclaimer and mail it to the FSF so that I can apply your patch as-is? If not, I will try to reverse engineer what you are attempting based on your description above, and apply a similar patch by comparing the branch-1_4 Makefile.in with ones created by automake on CVS head, without referencing your patch, so that we are not violating copyright assignment limitations. > > Please, update mkinstalldirs to a current version because the included > one is rather outdated. Will do. > > I hope the patches appended below are convenient for you. > > > Thanks. > > Andreas Büning > - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
