Re: defining xxx_PROGRAMS conditionally?

Did you mean autoconf 2.58?  I don't see 2.59 anywhere...

And where is CVS automake these days?  Is it still on sourceware.cygnus.com?

That machine was renamed to sources.redhat.com long ago.
But yes, that is where it is hosted.

defining xxx_PROGRAMS conditionally?

2003-11-07 Thread Harlan Stenn 
I know this has been discussed before, and I don't remember seeing a good
solution.  Perhaps this has changed with automake-1.7.7...

I have a situation where I am using automake conditionals to control the
installation directory of _PROGRAMS.

In certain configurations I want them to be bin_PROGRAMS, and in others I
want them to be bootbin_PROGRAMS.

Sometimes automake-1.7.7 does not like this, and complains:

 utils/Makefile.am:30: automake does not support bin_PROGRAMS being defined 
conditionally
 utils/Makefile.am:42: automake does not support bootbin_PROGRAMS being defined 
conditionally

I would rather not hack around this by always installing in bin_PROGRAMS and
using the automake conditionals to override using:

 if FOO
 bindir=$(bootbindir)
 endif

(assuming that would work...)_

What other solutions are there?

One other strange thing - there are some directories where this same
situation does not cause a complaint from automake, and so far I haven't
been able to see the difference inhow I have specified things.
