I'm not very experienced with automake and the such, but I know Gentoo has a |
| 8 |
genius system (borrowed from MDK :) where /usr/bin/automake is actually a |
| 9 |
perl script, which runs a certain version of automake depending on shell |
| 10 |
variables |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The perl script defaults to a certain version of automake, and you need to |
| 13 |
check the noteedit docs to see which version it needs to build correctly. |
| 14 |
Then all you have to do is set the correct shell variable. |

I also assume that autoconf and the rest of the family has similar systems. |
