From my Makefile (This to debug the Makefile.in):
F2C_INSTALL_FLAG = [ -f f2c-install-ok -o -f $(srcdir)/f2c-install-ok ]
and later:
install-f2c-header:
-if test -n "$(F2C_INSTALL_FLAG)" && test -f include/f2c.h; then \
$(INSTALL_DATA) include/f2c.h $(includedir)/f2c.h; \
chmod a+r $(includedir)/f2c.h; \
else true; fi
What you wants is probably:
install-f2c-header:
-if $(F2C_INSTALL_FLAG) && test -f include/f2c.h; then \
$(INSTALL_DATA) include/f2c.h $(includedir)/f2c.h; \
chmod a+r $(includedir)/f2c.h; \
else true; fi
I still thinks this is the wrong way of doing installation,
enable/disable at configuration time is probably better than checking
for f2c-install-ok. (A warning can be issued at configuration and/or
install time.)
