GNU autotools tend to be incompatible from release to release.

meta-auto is a try at alleviating the problem: it provides actual scripts,
such as autoconf that will try to call the right tool based on a few
environment variables, such as AUTOCONF_VERSION and AUTOMAKE_VERSION.

Prepare for automake,aclocal behave like autoconf. the version number of the program to be used shall be indicated by an environment variable AUTOMAKE_VERSION. /usr/local/bin/{automake\|aclocal} are not yet installed. ok espie@ 2004-11-08 17:00:09 -05:00			`environment variables, such as AUTOCONF_VERSION and AUTOMAKE_VERSION.`
