It is however better to use the suffix and +prefix forms as described above because that does not require +knowledge about the actual tools used by autgen.sh. + + +Please don't use autopoint, libtoolize or autoreconf unless you are +the current maintainer and want to update the standard configuration +files. All those files should be in the CVS and only updated manually +if the maintainer decides that newer versions are required. The +maintainer should also make sure that the required version of automake +et al. are properly indicated at the top of configure.ac and take care +to copy the files and not merely use symlinks. + + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
