| Notes on enabling maintainer mode | |
| Note that if you configure with --enable-maintainer-mode, you will need | |
| special versions of automake, autoconf, libtool and gettext. You will | |
| find the sources for these in the respective upstream directories: | |
| ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf | |
| ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake | |
| ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libtool | |
| ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext | |
| The required versions of the tools for this tree are | |
| autoconf 2.64 | |
| automake 1.11 | |
| libtool 2.2.6 | |
| gettext 0.14.5 | |
| Note - "make distclean" does not work with maintainer mode enabled. | |
| The Makefiles in the some of the po/ subdirectories depend upon the | |
| Makefiles in their parent directories, and distclean will delete the | |
| Makefiles in the parent directories before running the Makefiles in | |
| the child directories. There is no easy way around this (short of | |
| changing the automake macros) as these dependencies need to exist in | |
| order to correctly build the NLS files. |
