If we configure with no METHOD defined, instead of defaulting to opt we just get a "Make.common." with no suffix. If we then build with no METHOD defined, it dies complaining that it can't find Make.common.opt.
We seem to be getting hit by this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtool/+bug/299931 on Ubuntu 10.04LTS. configure generates a libtool with /bin/bash in the shebang line, but then tries to run it from subdirectories with e.g. "/bin/sh ../../libtool blah"; this dies when dash doesn't understand the bashisms in the libtool script. I can't seem to figure a workaround; one major drawback of automake is how damn opaque it is. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
