You could add a line
doc_DATA = COPYRIGHT COPYING
or you could replace this and the EXTRA_DIST line above with
dist_doc_DATA = COPYRIGHT COPYING
Please note that the docdir variable is new in Autoconf-2.60, so if you
happen to use an older Autoconf version together with your Automake,
then you also need something along the lines of
docdir = ${datadir}/doc
Please also note that the file `COPYING' is special in that automake
will always distribute it if found. The list of such special files
can be found at the end of the output of
automake --help
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Ralf
