[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: automake-1.7.5a-1


[does NOT require cygwin-1.5.3+ -- this package was in 'test' for normal 
reasons.  It doesn't solve all the problems I wanted it to, but it works 
everywhere the old version did, and fixes several bugs.]

The automake package has been updated to version 1.7.5a-1. Recall that 
this package is not the REAL automake.  It's a set of wrapper scripts 
that call the REAL automake from automake-stable or automake-devel, 
depending on the needs of your target. See this message
    http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-12/msg00100.html

CHANGES:

o WANT_AUTOMAKE_VER variable support added; now you can
   override the auto-detection logic by setting this environment
   variable.  e.g. "WANT_AUTOMAKE_VER=1.4p5"

o (automake) remove explicit -Werror and -Wno-error support;
              replace with the more general (and correct)
              --warnings/-W option

o Add support for missing options
   (automake) add support for --amdir
   (automake) add support for --build-dir
   (automake) add support for --generate-deps
   (automake) add support for --srcdir-name
