If you are building from CVS, run the script
$ ./autogen.sh
to make sure that all the necessary maintainer tools are installed and
to build the actual configuration files. Then run
$ ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode
followed by the usual make.
If autogen.sh complains about insufficient versions of the required
tools, or the tools are not installed in the default location, you may
use environment variables to override the default tool names:
AUTOMAKE_SUFFIX is used as a suffix for all tools from the automake
package. For example
AUTOMAKE_SUFFIX="-1.7" ./autogen.sh
uses "automake-1.7" and "aclocal-1.7.
AUTOMAKE_PREFIX is used as a prefix for all tools from the automake
page and may be combined with AUTOMAKE_SUFFIX. e.g.:
AUTOMAKE_PREFIX=/usr/foo/bin ./autogen.sh
uses "automake" and "aclocal" in the /usr/foo/bin
directory.
AUTOCONF_SUFFIX is used as a suffix for all tools from the automake
package.
AUTOCONF_PREFIX is used as a prefix for all tools from the automake
package.
GETTEXT_SUFFIX is used as a suffix for all tools from the gettext
package.
GETTEXT_PREFIX is used as a prefix for all tools from the gettext
package.
It is also possible to use the variable name AUTOMAKE, AUTOCONF,
ACLOCAL, AUTOHEADER, GETTEXT and MSGMERGE to directly specify the name
of the programs to run. 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 autogen.sh.
Please don't use autopoint, libtoolize or autoreconf unless you are
the current maintainer and want to update the standard configuration
files. All the files generated from these tools should be in the
repository 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.
