NAME

       autoreconf - Update generated configuration files

SYNOPSIS

       autoreconf [OPTION] ... [TEMPLATE-FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       Run  `autoconf' (and `autoheader', `aclocal' and `automake', where appropriate) repeatedly
       to remake the Autoconf `configure' scripts  and  configuration  header  templates  in  the
       directory  tree  rooted at the current directory.  By default, it only remakes those files
       that are older than their predecessors.  If you install a new version of Autoconf, running
       `autoreconf' remakes all of the files by giving it the `--force' option.

   Operation modes:
       -h, --help
              print this help, then exit

       -V, --version
              print version number, then exit

       -v, --verbose
              verbosely report processing

       -d, --debug
              don't remove temporary files

       -f, --force
              consider every files are obsolete

       -i, --install
              copy missing auxiliary files

       -s, --symlink
              instead of copying, install symbolic links

       The option `--install' is similar to the option `--add-missing' in other tools.

   Library directories:
       -A, --autoconf-dir=ACDIR
              Autoconf's macro files location (rarely needed)

       -l, --localdir=DIR
              location of `aclocal.m4' and `acconfig.h'

       -M, --m4dir=M4DIR
              this package's Autoconf extensions

       Unless specified, heuristics try to compute `M4DIR' from the `Makefile.am', or defaults to
       `m4' if it exists.

   The following options are passed to `automake':
       --cygnus
              assume program is part of Cygnus-style tree

       --foreign
              set strictness to foreign

       --gnits
              set strictness to gnits

       --gnu  set strictness to gnu

       --include-deps
              include generated dependencies in Makefile.in

       The environment variables AUTOCONF, AUTOHEADER, AUTOMAKE, and ACLOCAL are honored.
