[ghemical-devel] Autoconf Error

[Donald Ephraim Curtis]

The real problem i'm having is these lines in configure.ac in the
AC_OUPUT section:

examples/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/carbocation_rearrangement_hydride_shift/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/carbocation_rearrangement_methide_shift/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/cycloaddition_Diels-Alder/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/E2-reaction/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/sigmatropic_rearrangement_Cope/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/SN2-reaction/Makefile

examples/transition_state_search2/tautomeric_shift_keto_enol/Makefile

When i run autoconf it searches all these directories for Makefile.in
and they don't exists, in fact, there is no Makefile.* in any of the
examples directories.  So whenever i update CVS i have to go in and
remove those lines, configure.ac rarely changes but it's still odd.

Best,
Donald
