The goal of Automake is to remove the burden of Makefile maintenance from the back of the individual GNU maintainer (and put it on the back of the Automake maintainer). . The `Makefile.am' is basically a series of `make' macro definitions (with rules being thrown in occasionally). The generated `Makefile.in's are compliant with the GNU Makefile standards. . Automake 1.16 fails to work in a number of situations that Automake 1.11, and 1.15 did, so some previous versions are available as separate packages.
