Description Michael Meeks 2012-02-24 03:36:28 UTC 
To make it easy to re-run autogen.sh without remembering lots of parameters, we have an autogen.lastrun file - unfortunately if you do something like:

./autogen.sh .sh

as I did somehow crazily ;-) then it trashes your last set of configuration parameters without hope.

So - it'd be wonderful to hack that script to backup autogen.lastrun to autogen.lastrun.bak before overwriting it if possible :-)

Thanks !
