I wouldn't mind the option of being able to test BOTH one alpha AND one
"real" release. I'd prefer one Makefile (to rule them all) without
conditionals, e.g

GARNAME = xnee

GARVERSION = 3.07
GARVERSION_ALPHA = 3.07.91

MASTER_SITES = $(MASTER_GNU)
MASTER_SITES_ALPHA = $(MASTER_GNU_ALPHA)

MASTER_SUBDIR = xnee/
MASTER_SUBDIR_ALPHA = xnee-alpha/

I agree it's nicer to have it in one file but I'm not sure how to make
it work, because the Makefiles are hard-coded to use the variables
GARVERSION etc and there are many of them so I am not sure how to
translate the _ALPHA version to be used.

Thought so, but wanted to express my wishes just in case they were possible to (be easily) implement(ed).

What can work is to create a separate directory tree

    alpha/xnee/Makefile:

    override GARVERSION = 3.07.91
    override MASTER_SITES = $(MASTER_GNU_ALPHA)
    override MASTER_SUBDIR = xnee/

    include ../../gnu/xnee/Makefile

and then make -C alpha/xnee

That'll work fine with me.

I've just checked in a test version of that if you want to try it.

I'll do it asap. Some more work in prep for tomorrow's work first.

Is the code on the trunk?
