[gnome-love] Makefile help

[Shane Butler <shane_b operamail com>]

Dear Gnomers,

I am having a bit of trouble trying to get a makefile to copy a file
into its directory.  This is probably pretty trivial, but I havent used
Makefiles before!

In the makefile below, I have added the "guess_system:" line at the
bottom.

If a gnome hacker with some more experience that I could point me in the
right direction, that would be great.

Thanks,

Shane
