Help: Missing something simple...


I'm trying to use automake-1.4 (with autoconf-2.12 and perl-5.005_03) for
the first time, but I must be missing something simple.  I've created a
simple configure.in file and Makefile.am file in the package directory as
follows:

======== configure.in ========
AC_PREREQ(2.12)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(pkglink, 1.1)
AC_INIT(pkglink)
AC_PROG_MAKE_SET
AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)
==========================
======== Makefile.am ========
bin_SCRIPTS = pkglink pkgindex
man_MANS = pkglink.1 pkgindex.1
==========================

Its a couple of scripts that I want to make installable using configure.

Starting from a fresh directory (ie. no configure / Makefile / Makefile.in),
to generate the Makefile for this, I do:

	$ aclocal
	$ autoconf
	$ automake -a
	$ configure --prefix=$TARGET

Examining the Makefile after this, I find that none of the Automake
variables were properly expanded (particularly @PACKAGE@ and @VERSION@ -- in
fact, all uppercase variables).  What am I missing?
