[minor] automake warning: subdir-objects is disabled #6

Open

Description

@hishamhm

Running ./autogen.sh in libscript-ruby (and possibly others too) produces this warning:

Makefile.am:4: warning: source file 'src/libscript-ruby.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:4: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled.  For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory.  However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
