Why does gsoap ship a diff.gz, which patches all Makefiles from automake 1.9.2 to 1.6.3? JFTR: The soapcpp2/Makefile.am file defines the libraries in lib_LIBRARIES. But this is an automake variable and it builds AFAIK static libraries only. To build the shared library you need libtool and a corresponding _LTLIBRARIES variable. The patch is trivial, but you'll need to libtoolize the sources and rerun all autotools. So it is probably better to talk to upstream.

Overriding upstream build system

Why not if you lower the world wide pain with your patch? But it may be better to push upstream to accept your patch and switch to cmake or he should fix his autofoo. -- /* Mit freundlichem Gruß / With kind regards, Patrick Matthäi GNU/Linux Debian Developer E-Mail: pmatth...@debian.org patr...@linux-dev.org Comment: Always if we think we are right, we were maybe wrong. */ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
