1) I had a line like this in my configure.in:
test -f somefile.in && AC_OUTPUT(somefile)
This works fine with configure, but automake really doesn't like it:
configure.in:337: required file `./test.in' not found
configure.in:337: required file `./-f.in' not found
configure.in:337: required file `./&&.in' not found
Maybe an overzealous RE match?
2) I have a situation where I want to optionally compile some different
files if the user specified a --with-xxx flag to configure.
In older versions of automake I just put a configure-substituted
variable right into the xxx_SOURCES variable but that no longer
works; I get the error "configure substitutions not allowed in
_SOURCES variables".
OK, that's fine, but how do I go about choosing whether to build
those files or not now?
