List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:9606 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:9606 I don't think that autogen.sh should do the configure and make bootstrap. I think it should create a file `must-bootstrap'. Then the next `make all' run should notice the existence of must-bootstrap, and do a bootstrap automatically. That way the usual sequence of commands $ ./autogen.sh <=== this is the extra step $ ./configure $ ./make $ ./make install will work as expected.
