Re: [Bobs-devel] systemcheck.php

The Makefiles are in the man directory in cvs. I just tested downloading 
bobs using anonymous cvs into an empty directory and the man Makefiles 
came with it and everything compiled and installed.

Heres how the autoconf stuff works. I run this to generate a fresh copy 
of the makefiles:

    aclocal && autoconf && automake --add-missing && ./configure

aclocal

    This generates the file 'aclocal.m4' which contains macros needed by
    the other make tools.

autoconf

    Creates 'configure' from 'configure.in'

automake --add-missing

    Creates 'Makefile.in' from 'Makefile.am'. The add-missing creates
    links to some files that 'configure' uses.

configure

    Creates Makefile from Makefile.in

I do a 'make distclean' before I check in my changes. This gets rid of 
all the files that aren't included in the cvs or in a distribution.

I run 'make maintainer-clean' after I've changed any of the '*.in' or 
'*.am' files. This cleans up all the files built by aclocal, autoconf 
and automake so I can ensure a fresh build using aclocal, etc...
