Install the package: make install Contents of Automake Installed programs Installed directories acinstall, aclocal, aclocal-&automake-version;, automake, automake-&automake-version;, compile, config.guess, config.sub, depcomp, elisp-comp, install-sh, mdate-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs, py-compile, symlink-tree, and ylwrap /usr/share/aclocal-1.11, /usr/share/automake-1.11, /usr/share/doc/automake-&automake-version; Short Descriptions acinstall A script that installs aclocal-style M4 files acinstall aclocal Generates aclocal.m4 files based on the contents of configure.in files aclocal aclocal-&automake-version; A hard link to aclocal aclocal-&automake-version; automake A tool for automatically generating Makefile.in files from Makefile.am files. To create all the Makefile.in files for a package, run this program in the top-level directory. By scanning the configure.in file, it automatically finds each appropriate Makefile.am file and generates the corresponding Makefile.in file automake automake-&automake-version; A hard link to automake automake-&automake-version; compile A wrapper for compilers compile config.guess A script that attempts to guess the canonical triplet for the given build, host, or target architecture config.guess config.sub A configuration validation subroutine script config.sub depcomp A script for compiling a program so that dependency information is generated in addition to the desired output depcomp elisp-comp Byte-compiles Emacs Lisp code elisp-comp install-sh A script that installs a program, script, or data file install-sh mdate-sh A script that prints the modification time of a file or directory mdate-sh missing A script acting as a common stub for missing GNU programs during an installation missing mkinstalldirs A script that creates a directory tree mkinstalldirs py-compile Compiles a Python program py-compile symlink-tree A script to create a symlink tree of a directory tree symlink-tree ylwrap A wrapper for lex and yacc ylwrap
