The difference in this case is that the autotools have been run by whoever created the release tarball, and thus the configure script has already been created, and is ready to run on any system with a shell. autotools are not involved at all beyond the point where they create the configure script. Maybe this helps explain why I find snapshot tarballs important. //Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
