Problem with automake / missing Makefile.in

Hi,

I had much problems using autotools with the CVS files...
using the ./autogen.sh script I couldn't then compile, it would complain about
a missing Makefile.in

The point is that this file is to be generated hmm

I was using an Ubuntu, with a VFAT partition,
after a little investigation i found this :

- i had the files INSTALL, NEWS, README and AUTHORS but named as lowercase
(that is install, news, readme and authors)
- doing "cat INSTALL" would do the same as "cat install"
- couldn't do "mv install INSTALL" because it says it is the same file

with some difficulties i found that mounting the vfat partition with the option "shortname=mixed"
would solve the problem smile

Re: Problem with automake / missing Makefile.in

You're about to experience a *lot* of troubles in Linux if you use VFAT for any other purpose but accessing files of a Windows former installation, btw.
