I appreciate the effort, but I have had a lot of trouble with
automake/autoconf in the past. In too many cases, I had to edit
files manually, because autoconf forgot something. This is mostly
pre-Linux, and programs in C not C++.
Can you tell me what the benefits are? I really want to know.
I guess in some ways, I stick to the old ways much longer than I
should. Until a few months ago, my distribution build script still
assumed that shar files, posted on alt.sources or comp.sources.misc
would be the primary form of distribution.
