I'll back it out since autotools packages always have a configure (as opposed to the package i tried to build with the autotools.in file). Sorry for the inconvenience.. I'm not 100% happy with Makefile.autotools.in, btw: rp-pppoe, for example, has it's configure not in the toplevel dir but in src/. From the looks, the autotools.in can't cope with such a layout, currently. Furthermore, for all autotools packages, it is easily possible to build outside of the sourcetree, so stepping into an empty build_dir and calling $(PKG)_CONFIGURE_DIR/configure ... (where this would default to just the $(PKG)_DIR) would be nice, mid-term (think project_build stuff). > >Just by the way...You do a great job here...Fast and reliable.
