Hi Guys. I need to make autoconf,automake,m4 & libtool to work form a "floating" location. I mean that I need to create a tar ball which may be extracted on every mac/linux machine. Then a set_env.sh script would run, after which every time a configure script would run it would use those autotools extracted from the tar ball. I mean "floating" location because the obsolute path to which the tar ball is extracted can be different on every machine (& still those tool should run....) What I did so far was: 1. installting those tools to a specific location using the --prefix in their configure scripts. 2. adding them to the HEAD of the path variable. 3. manually creating a perllibdir evnironment which points to .../share/Automake-1.... dir Still a lot of dependecies in autoconf doesn't work. apperantly the code i'm autoconf should recognize libtool and some other stuff. Is there a proper way to do what I want, or a good way to work through those dependencies? 10x.
