automake and autoconf

automake and autoconf

[John Huddleston]

To Cygwin group,

I just finished putting together another box from scratch
to support the Cygwin tools.  Two of the software packages 
that do not come with the standard (B20.1) distribution
are automake and autoconf.

I there a possibility that these two could be included in
the next Build?  (i.e. B22 or Cygwin 1.0?)

Sorry.  We have no plans on adding additional packages to the next net
release except that we may include a "man" or "info" reader.

Off Topic, but no idea where to ask.

[David Whitten]

I apologize for an off topic question,
but I'm not sure where to ask.

I'm on a development team for an open source project (
http://gump.sourceforge.net ) and the existing code needs to be changed
so configure and its friends (automake and autoconf) can increase its
portability. 

Is there a web-page, mailing list, archives, newsgroup, or some
other resource that tells how to do this? With examples, procedures,
checklists, etc?
 
Thank you,
David

Thanks Chris.  It's OK, I know how to build and install
them (done it enough!).  It's just that it would have been
nice.

Here I am right now trying to fix a broken installation involving autoconf.
