Summary: expat_external.h not installed

Initial Comment:
Version 1.95.8

expat_external.h is not installed when `make install'
performed.
On line 83 in Makefile, it is intended to be installed
along with expat.h
using conftools/install.sh,
but the script installs only one file at a time as
described in line 23
( of the script).

I had the same problem.  This probably seems like a trivial 
bug, so I wanted to explain how it impacted me.  We use 
several open source packages where I work, and usually I just 
download the tarball, run a standard build-it script, and 
package the install directory.  It took a while to track this 
down, and then I had to add a special cp
expat_external.h to the build-it script.  That is not terrible, 
but all other projects are so clean.

The fix does that; it's in CVS.  This is a duplicate of #1000112. 
Closing.

I thought the fix in CVS does exactly that?

I don't know about the original poster, but this is still
very much an issue for me. I am using Tru64 on a Compaq
AlphaServer, with gcc 3.3.4, gmake 3.79.1.

Based on this bug's description and the comments in bug
#1000112 I would *guess* that the GNU install command
handles multiple input files, whereas the POSIX standard
install command only handles 1.

I think the build file should be changed to call install
with one file at a time. It's a fairly small change (in this
case, 1 line becomes 2 lines) that would improve portability
of the library.

This depends on the platform - whcih is yours?
Seems like a duplicate of bug #1000112, which is already
fixed.
