1 Flight Gear uses the Gnu autoconf and automake tools for managing
2 Makefiles. It also uses libtool to manage building shared and static
3 libraries. Key input files for this system are:
5 configure.in - Top level directory
6 Makefile.am - One in each subdirectory
7 Include/config.in - input file for building config.h
9 If you need to modify any of these files, you will need to build and
10 install the following packages:
12 - GNU autoconf 2.12 (available from ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu)
13 - GNU automake 1.2h (available from ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/tromey)
14 - GNU libtool 1.0c (available from ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu)
16 When making a change to any of these files you will need to run:
18 aclocal ; automake -a ; autoconf
20 Then follow the regular build procedure:
22 ./configure; make; make install
