</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Hello people.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Someone was wondering why i added autogen.sh in libxslt. There is a reason
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; for this after long time maintaining open source softwares. See it as a
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &quot;last known good&quot; way of using the autopoo stuff as done upstream.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Just because you never understood autoconf is not an excuse to use such
</I>&gt;<i> kind of derogative comments.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; If &quot;autoreconf -
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; fi&quot; should ever fail in libxslt use the provided autogen.sh file. These
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; files tends to disappear or be moved to the upstream release managers
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; private hard drive only, or something like that. It's simply wise to keep
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; autogen.sh for ourselves for reference. If you don't need to use it,
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; fine, but keep it.
</I>&gt;<i> Those dedicated scripts disappear because they are now obsoletes in
</I>&gt;<i> favor of a generic solution maintained upstream. You'd better find an
</I>&gt;<i> actual case where using the standard tool fails, whereas using such kind
</I>&gt;<i> of ad-hoc wrapper works, before bloating packages with useless hacks.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> BTW, libxslt builds perfectly without ever regenerating the build system...
</I>
Funny... An ignorant, patronizing and belittling responce is what I get on my 
first ever mail here. I really don't have time with this childish crap.
