Thanks very much for this. Everything was clear except for why after making all the changes I was still getting this error: gnulib/gnulib-tool: *** Option --automake-subdir is only supported if the definition of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS in Makefile.am contains 'subdir-objects'. I eventually worked out this is because gnulib-tool requires the invocation of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS to be on a single line. In hello's configure.ac, it was on multiple lines for clarity. No big deal. See commit fab5dca of hello. -- https://rrt.sc3d.org
