-a
|
--add-missing
Automake requires certain common files to exist in certain situations; for instance config.guess
is required if configure.in runs AC_CANONICAL_HOST. Automake is distributed with several of these
files; this option will cause the missing ones to be automatically added to the package, whenever
possible. In general if Automake tells you a file is missing, try using this option. By default
Automake tries to make a symbolic link pointing to its own copy of the missing file; this can be
changed with --copy.
|
--libdir=DIR
Look for Automake data files in directory DIR instead of in the installation directory. This is
typically used for debugging.
|
-c
|
--copy When used with --add-missing, causes installed files to be copied. The default is to make a
symbolic link.
|
--cygnus
Causes the generated Makefile.ins to follow Cygnus rules, instead of GNU or Gnits rules.
|
-f
|
--force-missing
When used with --add-missing, causes standard files to be rebuilt even if they already exist in
the source tree. This involves removing the file from the source tree before creating the new
symlink (or, with --copy, copying the new file).
|
--foreign
Set the global strictness to foreign.
|
--gnits
Set the global strictness to gnits.
|
--gnu Set the global strictness to gnu. This is the default strictness.
|
--help Print a summary of the command line options and exit.
|
-i
|
--ignore-deps
This disables the dependency tracking feature.
|
--include-deps
This enables the dependency tracking feature. This feature is enabled by default. This option is
provided for historical reasons only and probably should not be used.
|
--no-force
Ordinarily automake creates all Makefile.ins mentioned in configure.in. This option causes it to
only update those Makefile.ins which are out of date with respect to one of their dependents.
|
-o DIR
|
--output-dir=DIR
Put the generated Makefile.in in the directory DIR. Ordinarily each Makefile.in is created in the
directory of the corresponding Makefile.am. This option is used when making distributions.
|
-v
|
--verbose
Cause Automake to print information about which files are being read or created.
|
--version
Print the version number of Automake and exit.
|
--Werror
|
--Wno-error
--Werror will cause all warnings issued by automake to become errors. Errors affect the exit
status of automake, while warnings do not. --Wno-error, the default, causes warning to be treated
as warnings only.
