Hi.
Im currently trying to trans fare a large amount of projects form ad-hoc
Makefiles to automake and autoconf. One of the objectives for this
trans fare is it get debian packages for "free". Meaning that when the
build is ok the dpkg-buildpackage does the job of making packages.
To make autoconf automake and dpkg-buildpackage run one needs to edit
and type information into many different files. Mainly Makefile.am
configure.in and debian/control. Much of this information is duplicated
and the "need" for a centralized configuration file for each project is
wished for. At least I think that all of this information is duplicated
and i can for see a nightmare of maintenance in the future with all ties
files?
My question is therefor is there such a system for configuration
management that can handle generation of the correct files or at least
substitution of them?
Thanks in advanced for any tips or pointers to other how has had such a
problem before.. or other solutions on how to solve this problem.
