This also means that an incomplete set of header files gets added to
the tarball when you `make dist` - The tarball doesn't build.

I meant to say I'll add the FIVE new files to CVS.

The library header files have just always been installed into
pano12.  It seems to be a common practice for other libraries.

Thanks that's enlightening.

Since the version of the library is '2.7.whatever' which is api
compatible with other 2.x versions, I suppose the three numbers
should be 2.7.0?

Sorry I renamed the files slightly differently.

I've now added the build system to CVS:

  AUTHORS
  ChangeLog
  Makefile.am
  NEWS
  README
  bootstrap
  configure.ac
  m4/Makefile.am
  m4/ax_check_graphics.m4
  m4/ax_check_java.m4
  tools/Makefile.am

This won't show up in anonymous-cvs for a few hours, but it would be
nice to test this on as many platforms as possible.

Yes the library sources should have been initially imported to a
sub-directory but it would be difficult to change it now without
losing the CVS history.

The library now builds on osx (this is a first):

 1743296  libpano12.0.0.0.dylib
      21  libpano12.0.dylib -> libpano12.0.0.0.dylib
      21  libpano12.dylib -> libpano12.0.0.0.dylib
 2087560  libpano12.a
      15  libpano12.la -> ../libpano12.la
     851  libpano12.lai

Though the 'tools' fail as Andreas found.

configure couldn't find java, tiff, jpeg or png headers, so I had to
set CFLAGS (this is osx 10.1):

  CFLAGS='-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Headers -I/sw/include' ./configure
  make

To build on fedora fc1 I had to change this line in configure.ac:

  AC_PREREQ(2.57)
