Hi,

I am creating my own recipe for a custom open source package(Ex:
spell) in MVL6. While I am building the recipe individually it fails me
at do_install stage if i enable the inherit auto tools option in my
recipe file. Without auto tools it  work's fine but could see that the
package is not added to my file system finally.

Here is my recipe file:

[celestial@localhost mytestproject]$ cat collections/custom/spell/spell_1.0.bb
DESCRIPTION = "An autoconf based spell project"
PR = "r0"
LICENSE = "GPLv2"

SRC_URI = "http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/spell/spell-${PV}.tar.gz"
#SRC_URI = "git://path/to/git/repository;protocol=ssh"
#SRC_URI = "file:///home/celestial/Desktop/spell-1.0.tar.gz"

# Set this to the appropriate path if the sources as referenced in SRC_URI
# will result in a path other than <packagename>-<packageversion>/ after the
# unpack task.
S = "${WORKDIR}/spell-${PV}"
inherit autotools

[celestial@localhost mytestproject]$ bitbake spell

Is there something that I can add to my recipe to make it build successful with auto tools option.

Thanks,
