Hi, I;ve been dealing with a lot of crippled sources and also build a few svn and git packages from time to time. I copied the contents of the %configure macro and substituted ./configure with ./autogen.sh. This would be ideal as a %autogen macro don't you think?
What about %define _configure ./autogen.sh %configure
cu Ludwig
That runs configure twice, autogen.sh already runs configure (99% of the time) and accepts the arguments for configure and passes them to configure. I would also put in a check for the 1% where autogen.sh is simply a script that runs the ac and am tools without libtool. The generic autogen.sh has a header whereas the 1% is a small script. It was just an idea as I was updating yet another crippled package the expanded %configure takes a lot of space and a %autogen macro would make the spec file more readable. I'll carry on with this after I've finished more important tasks.
