Hi,
we just upgrading to
automake 1.6 (from 1.4)
autoconf 2.53 (from 2.13)
libtool 1.4.2 (from 1.3.5)
and now the package won't compile anymore. I guess that the dependency
mechanism has somewhat changed.
The configuration of our software package is as follows. We are using an
'obj/gcc_2.95.3-release-GL' directory to store the .o files and the libs (We do
not like to keep them in the source code directory). The configure command runs
ok and put the Makefiles in the obj/gcc_2.95.3-release-GL directories. The
problem is that a subsequent 'make' command stops immediately:
make -C
/servers/ockham_fs1/gloger/develop/LabFramework/obj/gcc_2.95.3-release-GL/. all
make[1]: Entering directory

Obviously it do not find the *.Plo files in one of the
'obj/gcc_2.95.3-release-GL' directories. Those files are not created at all. I
checked this with the find command.
If I try to build the software without this extra object directory the .deps
directories are created.
The old automake/autoconf/libtool combination did not fail at all.
Any ideas what's going wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Joachim
