------- Comment #2 from Yeti  2007-07-12 07:46 UTC -------
The second issue is typically dealt with by using @GST_MAJORMINOR@ in the
templates and adding them to AC_CONFIG_FILES() in configure.ac.

If you want also a rule that rebuilds these files when the a template changes,
you can do something like

%- at GST_MAJORMINOR@.1: %.1.in
        cd $(top_builddir) \
            && ./config.status --file=tools/$*- at GST_MAJORMINOR@.1:$*.1.in

which will rebuild a file using config.status and non-portable make constructs,
but these will affect only people editing the templates now, not everyone
compiling gstreamer.

Alternatively, the rule above can be easily expanded for each file manually
resulting in a completely portable Makefile.
