Hi all.

I'll like to create, with automake, a Makefile able to create an empty
directory in my project tree (after bin, doc,...).
I'm ablte to do it if the directory content a file (see my Makefile.am
in example below, but only in this case (and this is not what I want
...).
Any idea ?

thx.
Sam.

SUBDIRS = src

myprojectdocdir = ${prefix}/doc
myprojectbindir = ${prefix}/myproject

myprojectdoc_DATA = \

EXTRA_DIST = $(myprojectdoc_DATA)

# Copy all the spec files. Of cource, only one is actually used.
dist-hook:
        for specfile in *.spec; do \
                if test -f $$specfile; then \
                        cp -p $$specfile $(distdir); \
                fi \
        done
