<PRE>Hi guys.

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but what do i do after i have CVS'ed 
home this thing?

Look below for my trial and (mostly) error.

I would like to RTFM, but i don't find any :-(

Pls help me!

Btw, I run SuSE 7.0 if that helps anyone, and my computer is Y2K safe :-)

----- cut here -----

A loosers guide to automake! ;-)


I have tried the following commands:
aclocal  

(i got myself an aclocal.m4)

automake 

automake: configure.in: required file `./install-sh' not found
automake: configure.in: required file `./mkinstalldirs' not found
automake: configure.in: required file `./missing' not found
automake: configure.in: required file `./config.guess' not found
automake: configure.in: required file `./config.sub' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./INSTALL' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./COPYING' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./ChangeLog' not found
configure.in: 11: required file `./include/config.h.in' not found   

automake -a

automake: configure.in: installing `./install-sh'
automake: configure.in: installing `./mkinstalldirs'
automake: configure.in: installing `./missing'
automake: configure.in: installing `./config.guess'
automake: configure.in: installing `./config.sub'
automake: Makefile.am: installing `./INSTALL'
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found
automake: Makefile.am: installing `./COPYING'
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./ChangeLog' not found
configure.in: 11: required file `./include/config.h.in' not found  

autoconf

This gives me some of the missing files in the step above.

automake -a  (again...)

automake: Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./ChangeLog' not found
configure.in: 11: required file `./include/config.h.in' not found  

autoheader

(silence...)

automake -a (a final time...)

automake: Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found
automake: Makefile.am: required file `./ChangeLog' not found   

./configure
