Ahh, now I see, it is an automake option, too; ok, thanks :) > I haven't seen a report with config.h, but IIRC there was at least one > report where a package relied on another header to be searched in the > build tree before picking up the default version of the header in the > source tree. well... happy debugging in case something wents wrong :) Maybe this was some system supporting some other build mechanism beside autoconf. BTW, we had this in the past too. But when it is getting non-trivial (auto generated sources, libs with conditionals, dynamic things, "strange special steps that are needed"...) all "build environments" we used - except autoconf/automake - failed. Thanks again for the explantions! It is very helpful. oki, Steffen _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
