I have the following in a Makefile.am:
if BUILD_SRC_BEOS_SUBDIR
d_beos = beos
endif
SUBDIRS = $(d_beos)
where BUILD_SRC_BEOS_SUBDIR is from an AM_CONDITIONAL in configure.in.
BUILD_SRC_BEOS_SUBDIR is not defined because I'm not building on BeOS.
The directory structure is
top level
top level/src
top level/src/beos
If I run make distcheck in the top level directory, it bombs out at
one point because the beos subdir doesn't exist. Is this a bug in
automake? Is there any way to work around it? I am not running on
