I will admit that my own scripts for Project: Twilight needed modifications for autoconf - but only to remove a scary warning that users had no business having to ponder over regarding acconfig.h, which has been loudly deprecated. Consiquently, that project's scripts have been tested by me personally to work with every allowable combination of autoconf and automake available in Debian. It wasn't hard to get them into this state, either. -- Joseph Carter <knghtbrd@bluecherry.net> Goldfish don't bounce <Palisade> how are we going to pronounce '00 or '01 or '02 and so on? <Deek> Say goodbye to the nineties, say hello to the naughties. :)
