Update of /cvsroot/plplot/plplot/examples/python In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv26299/examples/python Modified Files: Makefile.am Log Message: This is the brute force approach to get "make dist" to include (almost) all the files that are present in a freshly checked out CVS tree. The notable exceptions are the directories cf/, new/, tmp/, and bindings/perl5. This was essentially done by putting files in the EXTRA_DIST variable in the Makefile.am files. I really dislike this brute force method, but since we really need to make a release soon, I see no way of doing otherwise. I would prefer to take this opportunity to remove some legacy cruft and to improve our installation in a file-per-file basis. For instance, in directory bindings/tcl, I added blindly the files README.tclAPI and plitclgen to EXTRA_DIST, but it is clear that they could be installed somewhere with "make install". Same commentary for the Python and Java stuff. Since I am (almost) totally ignorant on Python, Java and Tcl/Tk, I will really appreciate if competent developers step in. This cleanup + installation improvement discussion must take place in the post-release times. An aside note: the EXTRA_DIST variable (or the variables it uses) should not be inside conditionals in Makefile.am, otherwise the distribution tarball may be wrong. This is not yet consistently done throughout the source tree. |
