It's strange what these tools produce. But it sees it's slowly getting better over time not worse - so there is hope. Even the recent libtool looks ok now. And I don't really miss the check for FORTRAN, which seems to have disappeared here recently. :) > i'll have you know Satan's wheel is awfully shiny ... Heh, yeah. If you do not check-in the created stuff into git, and use: git clean -d -X -f autoreconf --install --symlink to bootstrap a repo, stuff looks pretty good, I think. You just need to be able to convince yourself not to look into the generated files. :) On the other hand the silent rules and "make distcheck" and all these things which come along with automake are just great to have. > Kay's rules look like they should be fairly straightforward to drop into > e2fsprogs. personally i'd use: > E = @: > when V=1, but this is probably just splitting hairs Ah nice, looks good to me, if that works.
