According to Michaël Grünewald on 5/29/2008 4:21 PM: | Autconf will substitute in Makefile's templates many ``Preset Output | Variables''. Some values of these variables represents path to | directories in the file system. The documentation (section 3.3.1) does | not tell whether these paths are absolute or relative, Which section did you have in mind for this improvement? There is no 3.3.1 in the 2.62 manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html | | By the way, it could be useful to have some variables representing paths | to directories and being guaranteed to be absolute. (I think especially | to top_srcdir). There is - use abs_top_srcdir. http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Preset-Output-Variables.html#Preset-Output-Variables | | Here is the version of autoconf I use: | | > autoconf --version | autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61 You may want to consider upgrading to 2.62. | | P.S.: I just noticed that Autoconf's documentation refers to | [EMAIL PROTECTED]' whereas [EMAIL PROTECTED]' shall | now be used. Where in the manual did you find that? The correct address should be '[email protected]' and not bug-gnu-utils. I don't see the bug-gnu-utils anywhere in the 2.62 manual. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
