Hi,

The autotools shipped with hulahop 0.4.9 seems broken.

  * The option --disable-maintainer-mode is unsupported
  * libtool fails, seemingly treating compile flags as build options

I have worked around it for now in the Debian packaging by regenerating 
autotools, but ideally it should be fixed upstream.

As a related note, I noticed (because I now keep close track of *all* 
licensing info. including autogenerated files) that the autotools files 
shipped do not always progress: sometimes (I believe it was with 
sugar-toolkit but might be another core library) a newer release ship 
with older autotools files (e.g. not shipping the - funny in our context 
- - m4/ltsugar.mk file).


Kind regards,

  - Jonas
