Can nobase_pkgdata_DATA take directories? Does not seam so.


Greetings.

nobase_pkgdata_DATA = \
  engine \
  smarty/lib \
  smarty/plugins \
  smarty/themes/examples

Above, all of the entries in nobase_pkgdata_DATA are directories. However, when I am performing "make install", I get the error (Same error for the other directories):

cp: omitting directory `./smarty/themes/examples'

This is because install.sh calls the cp command without the -r parameter.

Is it possible to define directories in nobase_pkgdata_DATA? I want to avoid to list the files because they change alot during development and can become numerous.

In the Automake documentation, all the examples use files, but nowhere have I found some warning that directories do not work.
