Hi Andreas, On 2/11/10 12:06 PM, Andreas Jellinghaus wrote:
IMHO it seems confusing and error prone to treat those two cases separately. To me, a file is either located in srcdir or builddir, independent on whether I build from an svn checkout or from a tarball. For instance, the `Makefile.in' is always located in srcdir, also when it is created (built) in an svn checkout. You said before that you wanted to treat documentation as `Makefile.in' and then I would have the docs in srcdir.also I wonder: what about builddir vs. sourcedir? how do you handle that? if people have a tar.gz with pre-build documentation, it is in sourcedir. if people checkout svn and build in a seperate build root, the documentation is created in builddir. does automake handle that automaticaly?
Thanks, Peter
