17 # Check that automake really automatically distributes all the files
18 # it advertises to do, even when in subdirectories.
20 # This behavior might be suboptimal, but it has been in place for quite
21 # a long time, and it would be risky to change it now. See also the
22 # discussion of automake bug#7819:
23 # <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=7819>
25 # Keep this test in sync with sister test `autodist.test'.
