+# 'hacks' is the place to put some commands you may need. There are at
+# least two that seem to be necessary in some situations:
+#
+# 1. Some (newer?) versions automake --add-missing --copy do not copy
+# in ltmain.sh, maybe because this is now supposed to be done by
+# libtoolize.
+# 2. FLAC uses iconv but not gettext. iconv requires config.rpath which
+# is supplied by gettext, which is copied in by gettextize. But we
+# can't run gettextize since we do not fulfill all it's requirements
+# (since we don't use it).
+#
+# If both these apply try:
+#
+#hacks="cp /usr/share/libtool/ltmain.sh . && cp /usr/share/gettext/config.rpath ."
+#
+# Otherwise, this is the no-op:
+hacks=true
+#
+
+aclocal && autoconf && autoheader && $hacks && automake --foreign --include-deps --add-missing --copy
