I spent a lot of time once on a project doing Autotools stuff. I think Automake is very useful and nice. The rest is darn hard to tame.
It seems to me that Autotools is like CVS in that it is a project patched piecemeal over years and years that must be torn down and rewritten write like the Subversion crew did for CVS. I just mess with setup.py's in Pythonland now and never go near Autotools. Chris -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
