1179084Srdivacky 2179084Srdivacky Notes on enabling maintainer mode 3179084Srdivacky 4179084SrdivackyNote that if you configure with --enable-maintainer-mode, you will need 5179084Srdivackyspecial versions of automake, autoconf, libtool and gettext. You will 6179084Srdivackyfind the sources for these in ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/binutils. 7179084Srdivacky 8179084SrdivackyNote - "make distclean" does not work with maintainer mode enabled. 9179084SrdivackyThe Makefiles in the some of the po/ subdirectories depend upon the 10179084SrdivackyMakefiles in their parent directories, and distclean will delete the 11179084SrdivackyMakefiles in the parent directories before running the Makefiles in 12179084Srdivackythe child directories. There is no easy way around this (short of 13179084Srdivackychanging the automake macros) as these dependencies need to exist in 14179084Srdivackyorder to correctly build the NLS files. 15179084Srdivacky
