Regarding AM_CONFIG_HEADER vs AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, the documentation for Automake says: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS Automake will generate rules to rebuild these headers. Older versions of Automake required the use of AM_CONFIG_HEADER; this is no longer the case today. So I suggest that we keep AC_CONFIG_HEADERS. Automake's NEWS file says AM_CONFIG_HEADER is obsolete since version 1.7. > src/Makefile.am:30: invalid unused variable name: > `nodist_qgit_SOURCES' That's another sign of an obsolete version of Automake. "nodist_" was introduced many years ago, back in the good old days when I had time to track its progress. NEWS says it was introduced in Automake 1.5! Perhaps we should require version 1.7 by adding this to the top-level Makefile.am: AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS =3D 1.7 --=20 Regards, Pavel Roskin
