Yes, it was apparently a misusage that just squeaked through older versions of automake, and they tightened up the error reporting/detection in 1.12. _SCRIPTS can only take "bin," "sbin," "libexec," or "pkgdata" now. It was never intended to take pkglib, but it was not prevented until the more recent releases.

I always disliked the /usr/local/lib/xastir location for scripts, as none of those things are actually libraries. > The patch might be attached, and I've uploaded it to the bug/patch tracker at > Sourceforge at; The patch was stripped. > https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3484305&group_id=45562&atid=443273 I have applied this patch in CVS. I added "dist_" to "scripts_DATA" because the original intent (as evidenced by the EXTRA_DIST you removed in the patch, was that the scripts would be included in .tar.gz files generated from "make dist". scripts_DATA will cause the indicated scripts to be installed, but won't include them in the distribution tarball. Adding a "dist_" prefix makes that happen. This change in behavior (installing scripts in /usr/local/share/xastir/scripts instead of /usr/local/lib/xastir) needs to be documented. I've updated README.Getting-Started and README.MAPS to remove references to /usr/local/lib/xastir and replace them with /usr/local/share/xastir/scripts. We'll need to announce the change in behavior to the user list. I'll do that now. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway?
