Details

Due to upcoming changes in automake 1.14 regarding compiling of source files in subdirectories [1], lxc no longer builds (the autogen.sh script fails). The full error is attached (automake-1.14.error).

This can be fixed by inserting "subdir-objects" into AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in configure.ac before running autogen.sh -- see the attached quick patch (automake-1.14-build-fix.patch).

The patch should be dropped as long as upstream catches up...

HTH,
Leonid.
