           Summary: ignores configure.in when creating a new project, leaves
                    it unchanged, so creating distribution package is
                    impossible
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 3.1.1
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs kdevelop org
        ReportedBy: ronny.kissing gmx net


Version:           3.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Every project creates a configure.in file which contains the version and the appname. Since KDevelop 3.1.0 it is ignored by kdevelop and in the configure.in file there stands only the following:

dnl Automake doc recommends to do this only here. (Janos)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE($APPNAMELC$, $VERSION$) dnl searches for some needed programs

These lines have to be like the following:

dnl Automake doc recommends to do this only here. (Janos)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(kbootsplash, 0.3.1) dnl searches for some needed programs

This is not only by creating a new project, it appears also when the version of the project is changed via the projectoptions dialog.

Cause of this, it is not possible to create a distribution package in that way:

./configure
make dist

This problem appears in every project and in many situations because the configure script is not called in the right way.
