I'm trying to write up some Portfile for me and came across some problems. The upstream source is in cvs and uses automake/autoconf/libtool. My problem is now: how do I run aclocal, autoheader and libtoolize from the Portfile? I can run automake and autoconf, but as far as i can see, there is no way running custom scripts/commands, right?
There are the "use_autoconf" and "use_automake" built-ins, but those two fail to depend on autoconf/automake and as far as I know there is nothing for autoheader/libtoolize, should that be needed ? Probably needs to be expanded to allow for several versions of each (in parallell), and easier support for doing a complete "autogen"/"bootstrap" (libtoolize+aclocal+autoheader+automake+autoconf) For now, use "system". (Or if upstream has a script, use that) --anders
