[ANNOUNCEMENT] NEW: automake-2-1


This new package provides a wrapper system for the various automakeX.Y packages, and plays a role similar to that of the long-standing autoconf wrapper package.

This wrapper system is based on the bash am-wrapper developed by the gentoo distribution, with tweaks to support cygwin's existing alternatives framework for switching between the various installed automakes.

The end-user experience should be transparent: invoke 'automake' and the wrapper will select the appropriate version based on the contents of the files in the directory where it is invoked (e.g. if Makefile.in was created by automake-1.6 from Makefile.am, then the wrapper will "know" to invoke automake-1.6).

This package is based on the automake-1-1 distributed by the cygwin-ports team.
