No, there was a ‘GUILE_CONFIG_SCRIPT’ invocation in configure.ac, which wraps ‘AC_CONFIG_FILES’. > _That_ rule would be the place to run $program_transform_name as part of > the creation process, rather than trying to shoehorn the conversion into > configure.ac. Yeah I realized we can easily do that in Makefile.am (and we already did for another script), so I took that route: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git/commit/?id=d80b6acf198dddc90eba40a83de36b65ddf9f0ac Thanks, Ludo’. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
