Build environment

2006-08-05 Thread Jeff Bailey
I'll start by saying that I have nothing but hate for the build environment in grub2. I realise that automake can be equally confusing in many ways, but it has two main advantages: 1) Everyone knows it already, 2) Other people are helping solve bugs with it. Assuming that we're stuck with this, i
