There is a stub bbdb.texinfo file in the repo, which isn't in the
debian binary package because including an empty info file seemed
silly. However it would be a good place to push info like this.
Roland, how about a installation and configuration section? That
seems like the most pressing

I have never encountered this. Could you possibly try to provide a
reproducible recipe for this or look at this in the debugger to see

I'd check for the function. Seems more robust. (E.g., if someone forks
an older version and updates the date string, or if the function is
renamed or removed in the future.) If there's a bug you need to check
for you can always complicate the guard later.

If the autotools-based stuff doesn't work on MSWindows, please report
the details.
That would be a bug, and we should be able to fix it, because
autotools-generated
scripts are intended to work in that environment (given an installed
bourne-compatible
shell, and make), and they are doing nothing
, but would happily
integrate tested patches from xemacs users.

I am just curious: In the sed regular expressions, you use [@]
instead of plain @. Is there a reason for this? Plain @ seems
to be working, too.
To shield the regex from autoconf!

But I guess this would be really needed only if bbdb-site.el.in was
actually processed by autoconf.

good to have a pre-built bbdb-site.el included in the distribution
tarball. But ideally `make' should rebuild this file whenever the
user re-runs make with a new value for pkgdatadir.
The dependency on ../config.something should cause it to be regenerated

Two minor things:

Okay, I've reworked it again to satisfy, I believe, all criteria!
The pathway is simply bbdb-site.el.in to bbdb-site.el.
This is accomplished solely at make time, not ./configure time.
(Using sed to replace the @foo@ things as well as the path.)
A pre-built bbdb-site.el can be included in the
The way I rewrote it this week maintained the property that all the earlier
files in the transformation chain were valid elisp, just maybe with
incorrect stuff in the strings. And with filename that are clearly destined
to be tweaked and renamed bbdb-site.el.

One very minor issue.

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr

The problem about your patch was that it not only defined the value
of the lisp variable bbdb-print-tex-path, but it also defined the
variable itself. So if someone does not install BBDB via make, then
the variable bbdb-print-tex-path remains undefined and it would be
difficult for most
There are two such .in files, bbdb-pkg.el.in and bbdb-site.el.in
In general, GNU autoconf generates too from foo.in at ./configure time.
It basically fills in some templates indicated by @bar@.
In this case the filled-in values are just version numbers inside quoted
expressions, shouldn't make
not in the bbdb
window proper (BBDB mode, ; is undefined).

I have a version packaged for Debian in the branch debian-v3.x in git://

problems particularly welcome. If there are instructions to make it easier
for users to get started, and they amount to startup code, I'd be happy to
Good idea to make it easy to push our an ELPA tarball.
Technically speaking, according to the autotools documentation, wildcards
like

Makefile.am files. (Well, maybe in clean targets I suppose.) Just
sayin'...
Cheers,

BBDB has been updated to use Automake.
That is great. I hope this means I can retire the automake-using mods
I've been maintaining in my bbdb3 repo on github. Will do a merge
flushing as many of the mods I've made as possible.
