Add AM_GNU_GETTEXT macros AM_ICONV relies on config.rpath and autopoint/gettextize will only copy these in when the AM_GNU_GETTEXT macros are present. This is needed for the next commit that deletes config.rpath since it is cruft that should be copied in by autotools not embedded. Run autopoint to copy in config.rpath and leave it to automake to copy into the tarball.

15 The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
16 various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
17 those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
18 It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
19 definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
20 you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
21 file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
22 debugging `configure').

carl
parents:
diff changeset
23
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
24 It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache'
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
25 and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
26 the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring. (Caching is
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
27 disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf

30 If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl

32 diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
33 be considered for the next release. If you are using the cache, and at
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
34 some point `config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf

37 The file `configure.ac' (or `configure.in') is used to create
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
38 `configure' by a program called `autoconf'. You only need
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
39 `configure.ac' if you want to change it or regenerate `configure' using
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
40 a newer version of `autoconf'.

42 The simplest way to compile this package is:
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
43
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
44 1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
45 `./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
46 using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
47 `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
48 `configure' itself.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:

c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:

50 Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
51 messages telling which features it is checking for.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:

52
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl

carl
parents:
diff changeset
54
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:

61 5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
62 source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
63 files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
64 a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
65 also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
66 for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
67 all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came

76
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
77 You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
78 by setting variables in the command line or in the environment. Here
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf

carl
parents:
diff changeset
87
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
88 You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
89 same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
90 own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
91 supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
92 directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
93 the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
94 source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
95
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
96 If you have to use a `make' that does not support the `VPATH'
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
97 variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
98 time in the source code directory. After you have installed the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
99 package for one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
100 for another architecture.

104
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl

105 By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
106 `/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
107 installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
108 option `--prefix=PREFIX'.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
109
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
110 You can specify separate installation prefixes for
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
111 architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
112 give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PREFIX', the package will
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
113 use PREFIX as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
114 Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
115
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
116 In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
117 options like `--bindir=DIR' to specify different values for particular
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
118 kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
119 you can set and what kinds of files go in them.

carl
parents:
diff changeset
120
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl

121 If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
122 with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:

128 Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to

parents:
diff changeset
129 `configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package.
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf

130 They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:

131 is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl

135 For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
136 find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't,
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl
parents:
diff changeset
137 you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf

143 There may be some features `configure' cannot figure out automatically,

144 but needs to determine by the type of machine the package will run on.

145 Usually, assuming the package is built to be run on the _same_
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
carl

147 message saying it cannot guess the machine type, give it the
c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf

c508ee15dfca switch to automake/autoconf
