Re: GNU hello

[Niklas Rosencrantz]

Now I could base my first manpage on the GNU hello project. I hope that 
localization also works. I aim to localize my program. I understand that I 
change the print function in main and that will appear in the manpage after 
build.

On OpenBSD I had to manually set 2 environment variables: Automake and 
autonconf versions. Maybe a script could set those for the build.

Could you specify which error my 2.7 build had? Is there a big difference 
between 2.10 and 2.7? I based my project on 2.7 and it seems to work but there 
are many function and still uses the hello word in some places.

Thanks
Niklas
