it looks useful but _very_ hard to actually use. why is maint.mk put into my top dir? shouldn't it go to src/build-aux/? why doesn't vc-list-files accept a list of directories? (it would be 'src modules' for me) why is $(srcdir)/lib/ hard-coded? I use gllib instead of lib. when I managed to get it "running", I got warnings about HAVE_ALLOCA_H in ChangeLog, aclocal.m4, and configure. thanks for the pointer though... -- Sam Steingold (http://sds.podval.org/) on CentOS release 5.6 (Final) X 11.0.60900031 http://www.memritv.org http://openvotingconsortium.org http://camera.org http://thereligionofpeace.com http://iris.org.il http://mideasttruth.com Those who can't write, write manuals.
