Hello Eric, Ralf et al, We have reorganized our package (tuxmath) into a smaller package for the game itself, plus a separate library package (t4k_common). Both packages use autotools, including autoheader. As part of t4k_common, we provide a couple of replacement functions (alphasort() and scandir()) for platforms lacking these functions. Thus, our t4k_common.h header needs to have an autoheader include so it can conditionally include the prototypes for these functions. Since just putting #include "config.h" at the top of our library header would cause a name collision with tuxmath's config.h, I have used the ax_prefix_config_h.m4 macro to rename t4k_common's config.h to "t4k_common-config.h", and adapted all the *.c files accordingly. So far, so good - everything seems to work as documented. The problem is that "make distcheck" fails due to a failure of "make distclean": make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/git/t4kcommon/build' rm -f config.status config.cache config.log configure.lineno config.status.lineno rm -f Makefile ERROR: files left in build directory after distclean: ./t4k_common-config.h ./_configs.sed make: *** [distcleancheck] Error 1 Relevant code snippets: >From configure.ac: ----------------- AC_CONFIG_HEADER([config.h]) dnl ------------- give config.h another name so it won't clash when t4k_common.h included by tuxmath/tuxtype: AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H >From t4k_globals.h (#included at top of every source file) ----------------- #include "t4k_common-config.h" Sorry if there is something else I am supposed to be doing, but I think I have followed the documentation and that there is a problem with the behavior of ax_prefix_config_h.m4 with respect to "make distclean" Sincerely, David Bruce _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
