Yesterday, Alfred M. Szmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and I had this exchange
about my inability to create a buildable archive of a mirror of the
CVS repository for inetutils at cvs.savannah.gnu.org:

>> ...
>>    % automake
>>    configure.ac:122: required file `build-aux/config.rpath' not found
>>
>>    What is the magic incantation needed to create a buildable
>>    distribution after a pull from CVS?
>>
>> What version of automake did you use?
>>
>> I have the following installed:
>>
>> automake (GNU automake) 1.9.6
>> autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.60
>> ...

I did the retrieval like this in an empty directory:

        cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/inetutils login
        cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/inetutils co -P inetutils
        cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/inetutils logout

I have:

        autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.60
        automake (GNU automake) 1.10

I get in the inetutils CVS tree that I mirrored yesterday:

        % autoconf
        [no output]

        % automake
        configure.ac:122: required file `build-aux/config.rpath' not found

        % ls build-aux/
        config.guess  depcomp     mdate-sh  texinfo.tex
        config.sub    install-sh  missing   ylwrap

Perhaps this has to do with my newer automake version, but the
complaint is about a missing file in the inetutils tree.
