OK, fine. :-) I think there are a few different use cases people have in mind. My understanding of the issue is that people responsible building large numbers of autoconfiscated packages for distros (eg, Debian) are the ones with the real headaches. > I tend to use a sub module repository and have config.guess and > config.sub in a directory (build-aux/) and I tell autoconf via > configure.ac where to find it. Yes, but that requires re-running autoconf. I think we're trying to avoid that because if configure.in is old, you may have a lot of work to do to get autoreconf to work. Ben
