as I've seen that automake 1.8 has been released [1], I wanted to announce that I plan to switch over to it soon.
One of the nice features is
* aclocal will now use `m4_include' instead of copying local m4
files into aclocal.m4. (Local m4 files are those you ship with
your project, other files will be copied as usual.) Because m4_included files are automatically distributed, it means
for most projects there is no point in EXTRA_DISTing the list of
m4 files which are used. (You can probably get rid of
m4/Makefile.am if you had one.)which should decrease kaffe's sources size by some 300k ;)
There are also some other nice improvements.
The release of automake 1.8 also gives me some hope that libtool 1.6 will follow soon, which would allow us to get rid of our libtool patches, as they've all been checked into libtool's CVS.
cheers, dalibor topic
