NAME
autoreconf - Update generated configuration files
SYNOPSIS
autoreconf [OPTION]... [DIRECTORY]...
DESCRIPTION
Run `autoconf' (and `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake',
`autopoint' (formerly `gettextize'), and `libtoolize' where
appropriate) repeatedly to remake the GNU Build System files
in specified DIRECTORIES and their subdirectories (default-
ing to `.').
By default, it only remakes those files that are older than
their sources. If you install new versions of the GNU Build
System, you can make `autoreconf' remake all of the files by
giving it the `--force' option.
Operation modes:
-h, --help
print this help, then exit
-V, --version
print version number, then exit
-v, --verbose
verbosely report processing
-d, --debug
don't remove temporary files
-f, --force
consider all files obsolete
-i, --install
copy missing auxiliary files
--no-recursive
don't rebuild sub-packages
-s, --symlink
with -i, install symbolic links instead of copies
-m, --make
when applicable, re-run ./configure && make
-W, --warnings=CATEGORY
report the warnings falling in CATEGORY [syntax]
Warning categories include:
`cross'
cross compilation issues
