The script I intend to use to obtain package information is in the
GraphicsMagick repository and produces information gleaned from a
'version.sh' script which has the smarts to produce some obvious
variable names.
echo `./scripts/pkginfo.sh package_bugreport`

The reason is because it avoids needing to edit configure.ac (a really stupid
practice)
I agree with this; with today's DVCS, it's very tempting (and IMHO useful)
Hi Bob, I managed to find your old message about "dynamically computing
package versions for Automake and Autoconf". Some initial comments

is an Autoconf issue more than an Automake one.
