Fixing "bootstrap"

(1/1)

afb:
Is it possible to get "bootstrap" script updated sooner rather than later ?

Having it recognize automake-1.7 (or at least acknowledge $AUTOMAKE)
would fix build errors both on Mac OS X as well as older Linux variants...

The best would be if could try first the program name without any suffix,
and then try it as "$PROGRAM-$VERSION" if the first program is too old.
The same goes for selecting the name of GNU libtool: glibtool vs. libtool.
Goal is to have the script work out-of-the-box on all supported platforms.

Patch applied.

afb:
Thanks, that was quick!

I'll try to update it to be automatic, i.e. write a for loop for the program, program-version ?

For now, you'll have to invoke it as: AUTOMAKE=automake-1.7 ACLOCAL=aclocal-1.7 ./bootstrap
