[postgis-devel] PostGIS 1.5 beta2

[Nicklas Avén]

Hallo Mark  I've tried for some hours to make it working as you decribe abovr, but I haven't sucessed. If I use $(shell pwd -W) in makefile it produces the right path, but I don't understand how to do it in configure.ac. I don't sucess in affecting PWD so it makes any difference in makefile.  But I have learnt a lot about what configure.ac is doing :-), but I don't understand how it works. A need more clues... /Nicklas
