autoconfiscation process

[Robert Isenberg <robert isenberg cs man ac uk>]

Hi,



I'm beginning work on a port of GTK+2 to Mac OS X.  I'm working with 
version 2.0.6.  I need to change the files in the gdk/x11 directory to 
become Objective-C files (.m).  As a result, I need to modify the 
configure.in and makefile.am files then autoconfiscate the code again.  
I have automake v1.6.3, autoconf v2.54.  I have been calling:

	aclocal
	autoconf
	autoheader
	automake -a

then I build with

	./configure
	make

Is this correct?  I get warning messages...


After running aclocal:

	aclocal: configure.in: 106: macro `AM_DISABLE_STATIC' not found in 
library
	aclocal: configure.in: 108: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL' not found in 
library


After running autoconf:

	configure.in:124: warning: AC_CANONICAL_HOST invoked multiple times


After running autoheader:

	WARNING: Using auxiliary files such as `acconfig.h', `config.h.bot'
	WARNING: and `config.h.top', to define templates for `config.h.in'
	WARNING: is deprecated and discouraged.

	WARNING: Using the third argument of `AC_DEFINE' and
	WARNING: `AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED' allows to define a template without
	WARNING: `acconfig.h':

	WARNING:   AC_DEFINE([NEED_MAIN], 1,
	WARNING:             [Define if a function `main' is needed.])

	WARNING: More sophisticated templates can also be produced, see the
	WARNING: documentation.
	autoheader: `config.h.in' is unchanged


After automake:
