The sense of automake (Was: Processed: better make that 1.7.8... :-()

[Andreas Tille <tillea@rki.de>]

Hi,

regarding to bug #215554 I would like to ask for my personal clarification:
Which sens makes automake if the resulting output depends from every new
subsubversion?

I've thought that I would do the wordnet program some good if I would add
automake stuff.  Since I switched to auotmake1.7 I have continous trouble
with subsubversion dependencies which now convinced me that I had a really
stupid idea.  Is there any reason for this trouble I could understand?

If not I would revert my changes and will go back to just patching the
brocken upstream Makefiles.

Kind regards

         Andreas.
