You are advised to start using recommended name 'configure.ac' instead, ASAP. - - The long-obsolete (since automake 1.10) AM_PROG_MKDIR m4 macro will - be removed in Automake 1.14. The $(mkdir_p) make variable and the - @mkdir_p@ substitution will still remain available (as aliases of - $(MKDIR_P)) for the moment, for better backward compatibility; but - you are advised to stop using ASAP. - - The ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS special make variable will be fully deprecated in Automake 1.14 (where it will raise warnings in the "obsolete" category). You are advised to start relying on the new Automake -- 1.8.1.rc3.192.g2d0029e
