Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v8] build: add autoconf to replace custom checks in tools/check

>Added autotools magic to replace custom check scripts

Let me start over on this one...  What is the install methodology with
the replacement of the custom checks with "autotools magic?" I am
working on a dist build and realized that the dist build goes over and
grabs the checks out of the tools directory to check the installation.
 So if I were to:

#hg clone -r 24869 http://xenbits.xen.org/hg/xen-unstable.hg
#cd xen-unstable
#./configure
#make dist
#tar cvfz something.tar.gz dist
#scp something.tar.gz xen@newhost:/temp
#ssh xen@newhost
#....
#./install.sh
...
Checking to see whether prerequisite tools are installed...
./install.sh: line 53: cd: ./install/../check: No such file or directory
./install.sh: line 54: ./chk: No such file or directory
All done.

#ls dist
COPYING  install  install.sh  README

#tail -n 6 dist/install.sh
echo "Checking to see whether prerequisite tools are installed..."
cd $src/../check
./chk install
echo "All done."

exit 0
