[ome-devel] Cvs install broken

[Ilya Goldberg]

The resolution of this seems to be to include Makefile.in files in  
the distribution+CVS.  They are included when doing "make dist" and  
are left in place when doing "make distclean".
The installer logic should attempt "make", then "configure" if "make"  
failis.  This will make it faster re-running it for one thing.  C  
developers are then responsible for running autogen.sh and updating  
the resulting Makefile.in(s), configure, and other stuff that remains  
after "make distclean".

Or, is this totally stupid?
