Comment(by fbissey):
I am working on an updated spkg. No need to update Makefile. We don't want
to update makefile. In fact that may not be the end of our trouble. I am
inserting the follwing after configuration in spkg-install:
{{{
# Touching html and info file to avoid to regenerate them.
# This must be done after configuration since the timestamp need
# to be later than include-maxima.texi which is generated at
# configuration time
for i in doc/info/*.html ; do
touch "${i}"
done
touch doc/info/maxima.info*
}}}
That should take care of the texinfo trouble. I am wondering whether or
not to add maxima-index.lisp to the list of touched file to bypass it as
well. It should only require perl which is ok.
Now I need a brave soul with no autotool/automake/autoconf installed on
their machine to try my new spkg when it is up. This is not very clean in
regards to autotools and run into "maintainer mode", I think we should
worry about this and pass it on the maxima mailing list:
{{{
make[1]: Leaving directory

Making all in share
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/fbissey/sandbox/maxima-5.23.2/share'
cd .. && /bin/sh /home/fbissey/sandbox/maxima-5.23.2/missing --run
automake-1.9 --gnu share/Makefile
Useless use of /d modifier in transliteration operator at
/usr/share/automake-1.9/Automake/Wrap.pm line 60.
configure.in:5: version mismatch. This is Automake 1.9.6,
configure.in:5: but the definition used by this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
configure.in:5: comes from Automake 1.9.2. You should recreate
configure.in:5: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again.
WARNING: `automake-1.9' is probably too old. You should only need it if
you modified `Makefile.am', `acinclude.m4' or `configure.in'.
You might want to install the `Automake' and `Perl' packages.
Grab them from any GNU archive site.
cd .. && /bin/sh ./config.status share/Makefile
