Hmm, this is what I did, but it did not work for me. My top level
Makefile.am looks like this,
SUBDIRS=$(READLINE_DIR) various tgdb cgdb
DIST_SUBDIRS=various tgdb cgdb
EXTRA_DIST=config $(READLINE_DIR)
I do not want the $(READLINE_DIR) to have the 'make install' rule
applied to it, which is why I have it in the EXTRA_DIST var. As is, I am
getting the top_builddir. I know this because when I do
../cgdb/configure and then make and then 'make dist' I end up with a
readline directory that has all the .o's and the .a's that were compiled
in the readline directory.
If I change it to
EXTRA_DIST=config $(top_srcdir)/$(READLINE_DIR)
I get the diff below, and I still end up with the .o's and .a's in the
readline directory in the dist. Got any advice?
Thanks again and again and again,
Bob Rossi
