A related issue is this section of gllib/Makefile.in $(srcdir)/Makefile.in: $(srcdir)/Makefile.am $(am__configure_deps) @for dep in $?; do \ case '$(am__configure_deps)' in \ *$$dep*) \ ( cd $(top_builddir) && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) am--refresh ) \ && { if test -f $@; then exit 0; else break; fi; }; \ exit 1;; \ esac; \ done; \ echo ' cd $(top_srcdir) && $(AUTOMAKE) --gnits gllib/Makefile'; \ $(am__cd) $(top_srcdir) && \ $(AUTOMAKE) --gnits gllib/Makefile
the penultimate line must be $(am__cd) $(top_srcdir)/src && \ how do I effect that? > * Sam Steingold <f...@tah.bet> [2011-07-29 14:16:46 -0400]: > > clisp directory structure is: > clisp - top level; hand-written configure script (ask Bruno) > clisp/src - most sources, configure.in, configure, aclocal.m4 > clisp/src/gllib, clisp/src/glm4 - imported from gnulib > clisp/src/build-aux - imported from many places, mostly gnulib > > $ grep top_srcdir src/gllib/Makefile.am > appears to indicate that top_srcdir should point to clisp. > however, > $ cd src && automake gllib/Makefile && cd .. > $ grep top_srcdir src/gllib/Makefile.in > has these: > ACLOCAL_M4 = $(top_srcdir)/aclocal.m4 > am__aclocal_m4_deps = $(top_srcdir)/configure.in > depcomp = $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/build-aux/depcomp > echo ' cd $(top_srcdir) && $(AUTOMAKE) --gnits gllib/Makefile'; \ > > how come?! -- Sam Steingold (http://sds.podval.org/) on CentOS release 5.6 (Final) X 11.0.60900031 http://truepeace.org http://www.memritv.org http://memri.org http://iris.org.il http://openvotingconsortium.org http://www.PetitionOnline.com/tap12009/ A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
