Introduction to Automake

Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in' files compliant with the GNU Coding Standards. Automake requires the use of Autoconf.

Downloading Automake

Please note that Automake 1.11.1 and Automake 1.10.3 fix a security issue present in the make dist and make distcheck rules of all packages using Automake. See here for details.

GNU Automake can be found on http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/ [via http] and ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/ [via FTP]. It can also be found on one of our FTP mirrors. You can also order a CD-ROM from the FSF or use other methods to obtain a copy.

Alpha/beta releases of Automake can be found in ftp://alpha.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake/, and the latest in-development sources for Automake can always be fetched through git from Savannah. DO NOT use Automake sources from these locations for production use.

Documentation

The Automake manual can be read on-line or downloaded in PDF format; also, more formats are offered for download or on-line reading. If you have installed Automake on your system, you may also find more information about it by looking at your local documentation; for example you might use info automake at the shell prompt.

Automake has several public mailing lists, each of which is archive.

You can subscribe to any Automake mailing list via the associated web interfaces, linked above.
