autotools

The autotools macros are used for projects that supply a Makefile, and potentially a ./configure script.

%autogen

Run autogen.sh script with dash, attempting to only run ./configure once

%autogen_with_bash

Run autogen.sh script with GNU Bash, attempting to only run ./configure once

%configure

Perform ./configure with the default options using the dash shell. In our testing, dash has been shown to be +20% faster to start up than bash on average.

%configure_with_bash

Perform ./configure with default options using the GNU Bash shell.

%make

Perform a `make` to build the current Makefile.

%make_no_verbose

Perform a `make` to build the current Makefile. This doesn't use the VERBOSE flag.

%make_install

Use make to install the results of a build to the destination directory

%reconfigure

Re autotools-configure a project without an autogen.sh script using dash

%reconfigure_with_bash
