Re: (not) building hello with makepp

[Karl Berry]

Daniel,

GNU Hello is written to be an example GNU package, that is, to do things
in a recommended minimal-future-maintenance way.  Therefore it uses
Automake and Gnulib, among other things, and the top-level Makefile.am
is as simple as possible.  There is no way to insert such ifndef's even
if I wanted to, which I don't.  Sorry.

It sounds like your project simply won't work with the way Gnulib is
written.  If you want to discuss that, address@hidden is the place
to do it.

Best,
karl
