[Sun, 4 May 2003 19:01:36 +0200]: A program distributed with a runnable configure shouldn't need to run autoconf, automake and aclocal, it should already be done.
It's KDE stuff and thus the stuff in admin/ that will force it to do it a recheck :(
But the real solution would be to rewrite the ac and am stuff the way it's meant to be used
And in this case it's unbelievably easy (if you know a bit about the autotools :) Just delete line 129 of configure.in (the line with the call to AC_OUTPUT() with arguments). The correct way to do things is already present: define files to output via AC_CONFIG_FILES (lines 131 - 138) and then call AC_OUTPUT *without* arguments (line 139).
Seems to work. Here is what I did...just commented out line 129 as instructed.
Build currently in progress. Once completed and tested will report back.
Many thanks for the insight.
Wrt to 8.2 as a desktop system Phillip...very very nice job. Currently testing
it as server platform and preliminary work seems to indicate of similar
quality. My hat is off to all of you guys ....
