I maintain a package called MySQL++, which uses autoconf. In previous
versions of the library, we used AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, calling the package
'mysql++'. For the upcoming version of the library, we have switched
over to the newer AC_INIT syntax.
But now, 'make dist' is creating tarballs called mysql---x.y.z.tar.gz
instead of mysql++-x.y.z.tar.gz. I can see why this is happening in the
configure file, but I don't like it.
How do we either prevent AC_INIT from turning + signs into - signs when
creating the PACKAGE_TARNAME macro, or override PACKAGE_TARNAME once
it's been defined?
