Yes; see 'info Autoconf Subdirectories' for better code, and info
autoreconf for the --no-recursive flag.
Hi Ralf,
yes, of course.
Sorry, my explanation missed an important point: we do want autoreconf to
recurse into subdirectories, just not into this particular one.
My advice would be you to
* redesign your configuration such that autoreconf works.
What you are doing doesn't seem sound to me.
or (principle of least resistance)
* not use autoreconf, but to implement a toplevel "bootstrap"/"autogen"
style script, you could fill with explicit "cd's" and "autoreconf
--no-recursive"/"autoreconf" where suitable.
Ralf
