Hi. I'm changing GnuTLS to use another configure.ac in lib/ and libextra/ and AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS, as per Bruno's suggestion. I've run into several problems, but I'll discuss each problem separately. Here is a first surprising behaviour.
Gnulib-tool seems to forget to copy some files, and I cannot understand why. Reproduce it by: git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gnutls.git cd gnutls git checkout 8e2ec91dad2432a869ca6fd1f1289d834bcd74c8 gnulib-tool --import It will print: Module list with included dependencies: ... perror perror-tests ... File list: ... m4/perror.m4 ... tests/test-perror.c tests/test-perror.sh ... Note that perror.c is not listed in the file list. If I try to force import of the module, something even more surprising happens: $ gnulib-tool --import perror Module list with included dependencies: ... perror perror-tests ... File list: ... lib/perror.c ... m4/perror.m4 ... tests/test-perror.c tests/test-perror.sh ... Removing file gl/tests/perror.c (backup in gl/tests/perror.c~) Copying file gl/perror.c Updating gl/Makefile.am (backup in gl/Makefile.am~) Updating gl/m4/gnulib-cache.m4 (backup in gl/m4/gnulib-cache.m4~) Updating gl/m4/gnulib-comp.m4 (backup in gl/m4/gnulib-comp.m4~) Updating gl/tests/Makefile.am (backup in gl/tests/Makefile.am~) Finished. ... Ideas? /Simon
