Subject: [PATCH] [iw] Make the build system automake based

Simply run autoreconf -fiv to use.

Should make libnl selection easier and in particular make
distribution packagers significantly less grumpy as "hand written"
makefiles are a permanent maintenance burden.

+# This script is derived from GIT-VERSION-GEN from GIT: http://git.or.cz/.
+# It may be run two ways:
+# - from a git repository in which the "git describe" command below
+# produces useful output (thus requiring at least one signed tag)
+# - from a non-git-repo directory containing a .tarball-version file, which
+# presumes this script is invoked like "./git-version-gen .tarball-version".
+
+# In order to use intra-version strings in your project, you will need two
+# separate generated version string files:
+#
+# .tarball-version - present only in a distribution tarball, and not in
+# a checked-out repository. Created with contents that were learned at
+# the last time autoconf was run, and used by git-version-gen. Must not
+# be present in either $(srcdir) or $(builddir) for git-version-gen to
+# give accurate answers during normal development with a checked out tree,
+# but must be present in a tarball when there is no version control system.
+# Therefore, it cannot be used in any dependencies. GNUmakefile has
+# hooks to force a reconfigure at distribution time to get the value
+# correct, without penalizing normal development with extra reconfigures.
+#
+# .version - present in a checked-out repository and in a distribution
+# tarball. Usable in dependencies, particularly for files that don't
+# want to depend on config.h but do want to track version changes.
+# Delete this file prior to any autoconf run where you want to rebuild
+# files to pick up a version string change; and leave it stale to
+# minimize rebuild time after unrelated changes to configure sources.
+#
+# It is probably wise to add these two files to .gitignore, so that you
+# don't accidentally commit either generated file.
+#
+# Use the following line in your configure.ac, so that $(VERSION) will

Opinions will always differ.

Is there some way that the makefile could be improved / simplified to
meet your goals / requirements without a complete automake based
rewrite?

I understand that custom makefiles can be a maintenance burden, but if
you could describe the exact issue you're having, and maybe propose a
less invasive patch, you might get a more positive response. (By
"invasive", I mean increasing the build dependencies, not necessarily
changing a lot of code.)

Another option could be to add an automake build system in parallel
with the current make based one and offer to maintain it.

Thanks,

[...] something *sane* like cmake [...]

(FWIW, don't even argue that part about auto*, it's decidedly not sane
to have a build system that needs roughly two dozen versions installed
concurrently to build different software)

Funny, but no. There's no "simply" in auto*shit.

Too bad for them. Feel free to suggest other improvements, but I'm not
switching to auto*shit. I *might* be open to switching to something like
cmake, although I think it's pretty much overkill.

Well, unfortunately we disagree on everything. cmake is NOT sane though
I could write an equivalent in few minutes, read the book, been there,
done that.. it sucks.

Autotools does not require two dozen versions installed to build
anything, this is a apparently an insanity found only in debian
distributions.

Looks like I am going to stop wasting keystrokes about now..people who
have similar opinions invariably do not understand the problems faced by
distributors or packagers.
