However, I'm using openSuSE's m4 package, and it doesn't come with the examples. I'm rather sure if `make install' contained rules for installing the example files, GNU/Linux distribution packages would also provide them. > Where would you suggest that the examples be installed? /share/doc/m4/examples > Are you willing to prepare a patch? Basically yes, but I can't promise any time frame. I guess that you as the maintainer could fix that much faster than me... Werner
