Renaming a library.
Dear all,
Together with Upstream and the Fedora packager, we decided some time ago that a
library in a package I am preparing will be renamed in Debian and Fedora, from
‘libread’ to ‘libstaden-read’.
In Fedora, this is done by using sed on some ‘.in’ files:
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/staden-io_lib/devel/staden-io_lib.spec?revision=1.4&view=markup
I was wondering if modifying the corresponding ‘.am’ and rerunning the
autotools, but I get the followign error after applying the following patch:

Do I have to escape the hyphen? I have not found documentation on that subject
when looking for “bad characters in variable name” in the Google search engine.
(I downloaded the sources of the io-lib from ‘http://qa.debian.org/watch/sf.php/staden/io_lib-1.11.6.1.tar.gz’;).
Have a nice day,
