Are you sure? I'm pretty sure that, if so, that's a bug in iconv_open: Bruno Haible was just saying on bug-gnulib how those files *do* get distributed: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Bruno Haible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: new module 'iconv_open' Newsgroups: gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [email protected] Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2007 02:12:57 +0200 Ben Pfaff wrote: > In PSPP, we've been trying to display all the missing > prerequisite libraries together at the end of a single configure > run, instead of just failing the configure run after finding the > first missing prerequisite library. It would be a natural > extension to apply this to helper tools such as gperf. But then you would display that 'gperf' and 'bison' are missing tools, also to the user of a tarball that contains the generated files already. These tools are needed only for users of the CVS and for the maintainers, not for tarball users. Configure options to distinguish these cases (e.g. --enable-maintainer-mode) have turned out to be a bad idea.
