How about:
if [ ! -f libgetopt++/configure ]; then
cd libgetopt++
./bootstrap.sh
fi
Also, how about:
if [ ! -f cygpackage.cc ]; then
echo "You must run this script from the directory containing it"
exit 1
fi
And similarly for libgetopt++/bootstrap.sh :
if [ ! -f src/GetOption.cc ]; then
echo "You must run this script from the directory containing it"
exit 1
fi
At the moment, the error messages are less than clear, if you make this
mistake.
Max.
