man_MANS = file1.3 file2.3
html_DATA = ($man_MANS:.3=.html)
BUILT_SOURCES = $(html_DATA)
EXTRA_DIST = $(man_MANS) $(html_DATA)
BUILT_SOURCES are automatically distributed, so you can only list
man_MANS in EXTRA_DIST.
I'm using autoconf-2.61; automake-1.10; libtool-1.5.23a
It's installed when I do 'make install', but it isn't packaged with make
dist (I'm doing this via VPATH). I just reconfirmed it on Cygwin after
modifying EXTRA_DIST and doing 'autoreconf'.
Then I did a tar -tzf mylib.tar.gz and it showed only the elements in
$(man_MANS).
A known bug maybe? For now I'll leave it in.
Cheers,
Jason.
