Hello automakers! I'm using autoconf 2.69 and automake 1.11.6 (Debian 7 stable). Recently I tried defining the source code folder name using a variable and strange things happen. I'm not sure whether this is a bug or my mistake. Here's the revelant part from Makefile.am, before the change, which

for this in automake? If not, I'll take a look at the implementation of distcheck and see if anything can be done about it (maybe some kind of variable(s) which means files used for inst/dist/both but are themselves nodist_noinst). fr33domlover PGP key ID: 937A67EF signature.asc Description: PGP
