Autoconf is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell
|
|
scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.
|
|
These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like
|
|
systems without manual user intervention. Autoconf creates a
|
|
configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the
|
|
operating system features that the package can use, in the form of m4
|
|
macro calls.
|
|
|
|
The FSF would make you believe that only gnu-m4 can handle autoconf.
|
|
This is no longer true. This package does not depend on gnu-m4.
|
|
|
|
This is autoconf${SUFFIX}.
|
|
|
|
The actual autoconf drivers for selecting autoconf version are in
|
|
the metaauto package.
