Is there a way to keep the package version outside of configure.ac:AC_INIT? e.g., the following: --- version.sh --- myversion="1.2.3.4" --- version.sh --- --- configure.ac --- . ./version.sh AC_INIT(my package, ${myversion}) --- configure.ac --- does not work because the version argument in AC_INIT is quoted. so, can I keep the package version outside of configure.ac (so that I do not have to regenerate the configure script whenever I bump the version)? thanks! -- Sam Steingold (http://www.podval.org/~sds) running w2k <http://www.memri.org/> <http://www.mideasttruth.com/> <http://www.camera.org> <http://www.honestreporting.com> <http://www.iris.org.il> <http://pmw.org.il/> Shady characters are often very bright. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
