AUTORECONF !!!AUTORECONF NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION SEE ALSO AUTHORS ---- !!NAME autoreconf - update configure scripts !!SYNOPSIS __autoreconf__ [[ __--help__ | __-h__ ] [[ __--version__ | __-V__ ] [[ __--verbose__ | __-v__ ] [[ __--debug__ | __-d__ ] [[ __--force__ | __-f__ ] [[ __--install__ | __-i__ ] [[ __--symlink__ | __-s__ ] [[ __--localdir=__''dir'' | __-l__ ''dir'' ] [[ __--autoconf-dir=__''dir'' | __-A__ ''dir'' ] [[ __--m4-dir=__''dir'' | __-M__ ''dir'' ] [[ __--cygnus__ ] [[ __--foreign__ ] [[ __--gnits__ ] [[ __--gnu__ ] [[ __--include-deps__ ] !!DESCRIPTION If you have a lot of Autoconf-generated __configure__ scripts, the __autoreconf__ program can save you some work. It runs __autoconf__ (and __autoheader__, where appropriate) repeatedly to remake the Autoconf __configure__ scripts and configuration header templates in the directory tree rooted at the current directory. By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their __configure.ac__ or (if present) __aclocal.m4__. Since __autoheader__ does not change the timestamp of its output file if the file wouldn't be changing, this is not necessarily the minimum amount of work. If you install a new version of Autoconf, you can make __autoreconf__ remake ''all'' of the files by giving it the __--force__ option. If you give __autoreconf__ the __--autoconf-dir=__''dir'' or __--localdir=__''dir'' options, it passes them down to __autoconf__ and __autoheader__ (with relative paths adjusted properly). __autoreconf__ does not support having, in the same directory tree, both directories that are parts of a larger package (sharing __aclocal.m4__ and __acconfig.h__), and directories that are independent packages (each with their own __aclocal.m4__ and __acconfig.h__). It assumes that they are all part of the same package, if you use __--localdir__, or that each directory is a separate package, if you don't use it. This restriction may be removed in the future. __autoreconf__ accepts the following options: __--help__ __-h__ Print a summary of the command line options and exit. __--version__ __-V__ Print the version number of Autoconf and exit. __--verbose__ Print the name of each directory where __autoreconf__ runs __autoconf__ (and __autoheader__, if appropriate). __--debug__ __-d__ Don't remove the temporary files. __--force__ __-f__ Remake even __configure__ scripts and configuration headers that are newer than their input files (__configure.ac__ and, if present, __aclocal.m4__). __--install__ __-i__ Copy missing auxiliary files. This option is similar to the option __--add-missing__ in __automake__. __--symlink__ __-s__ Instead of copying missing auxiliary files, install symbolic links. __--localdir=__''dir'' __-l__ ''dir'' Look for the package file __aclocal.m4__ in directory ''dir'' instead of in the current directory. __--autoconf-dir=__''dir'' __-m__ ''dir'' Look for the installed macro files in directory ''dir''. You can also set the __AC_MACRODIR__ environment variable to a directory; this option overrides the environment variable. __--m4dir=__''dir'' __-M__ ''dir'' Specify location of additional macro files (__m4__ by default). __--cygnus__ __--foreign__ __--gnits__ __--gnu__ __--include-deps__ These options are recognized and passed through to __automake__. !!SEE ALSO autoconf(1), autoheader(1), autoscan(1), autoupdate(1), ifnames(1) !!AUTHORS David !MacKenzie, with help from Franc,ois Pinard, Karl Berry, Richard Pixley, Ian Lance Taylor, Roland !McGrath, Noah Friedman, David D.
