I am very new to automake / autoconf and I'm trying to do something that
I thought was easy.
Before writing I read the archives and searched the web : nothing.
1)
I tried to build a susbsitution based on substituion in configure.in. I
couldn't do that.
I tried things like :
MYDATA=@prefix@/@VERSION@/@PACKAGE@
AC_SUBST(MYDATA)
and putting @MYDATA@ in a xxx.in AC_OUTPUT file
I always get @MYDATA@ expanded with @prefix@/@VERSION@/@PACKAGE@
I guess it's okay MYDATA is not processed recursively before
substitution.
I tried a bunch of things :
MYDATA=${prefix}/${VERSION}/${PACKAGE}
MYDATA=$(prefix)/$(VERSION)/$(PACKAGE)
MYDATA=$prefix/$VERSION/$PACKAGE
it doesn't produce the "right" substitution.
Yes I'm trying to use automake / autoconf has a preprocessor for some
.in files. Is it a problem ? I guess not.
Any hint will be greatly appreciated.
2)
is there any way in automake to describe installation of rc.d files ? I
haven't found exemples.
Please respond to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] as I am not yet on the
list.
