autoconf - C / C++

Where is the best news group to discuss autoconf

I have to tip my hat to the GNU developers becaause autoconf seems like an
animal, impossible to learn.

Between M4, C Marcos, GDB, C++, C- and GTK/Gnome, its a huge mindshare to
work with, and then throw in VIM macros and/EMACS, you need to be a
guinius to make any contribtuions today to anything GNU

i'm going back to my sendmail configuration files ;)

by: Mark Asbach | last post by:

Hi Python-Pros, I'm working on a project using an embedded and extended python interpreter. We use autoconf/automake/libtool and have our own autoconf macros for detecting a python installation.

Hi all! Although it's slightly OT: I've written PAM, NSS and PPPd plugins which do authentication (and other things) against a running Python daemon, communicating via a Unix domain socket.

E.g. copy the files (and <pyport.h>'s...

PECL install fails, autoconf problem

calling extension's autoconf/make from distutils

by: Gary Jefferson | last post by:

I've got a python extension that comes with its own standard autoconf/ automake system, and I can "python setup.py build" just fine with it as long as I have previously done "./configure" in that directory. However, 'python setup.py bdist_rpm' can't hope to have done './ configure' first, as it untars and tries to build the extension there....
