For some reason I got an uncontrollable urge to force OSSim to use autoconf, automake, and assorted friends. It’s kinda nice knowing that I know have a real set of make files for the project. Unfortunately, it still is written in C# which means I’m limited to the ever increasing set of platforms that have a C# implementation.
Anyway, it proved to be more of a challenge than I thought. However, RedHat has the entire autobook online. This is really helpful and probably the best resource I’ve found for the confusion that is Autoconf and Automake.
