IMHO ./configure is not a exactly the right interface to make distribution policy decisions. IIRC in the past Tom suggested using a Makefile variable to list all the expected archive formats. Such a variable would be filled by the Makefile.am author, but could be overridden on the `make dist' command line. Nobody has ever worked on this, though; maybe because nobody has ever asked for such a feature. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
