    <p><code>configure</code> does not decide this: <code>make</code> does. If the <code>configure</code> script is older than <code>configure.ac</code> or any of the files it includes (starting with <code>aclocal.m4</code>), then <code>make</code> runs <code>autoconf</code> to rebuild <code>configure</code>.</p> <p>Similar rules exist to rebuild <code>aclocal.m4</code> using <code>aclocal</code>, and the various <code>Makefile.in</code> using <code>automake</code>.</p> <p>These rebuild rules should never be triggered after you unpack a tarball on a target machine, because the timestamp of all these files in the tarball should be correct (<code>configure</code> newer than <code>configure.ac</code>, etc.). So if this happens, either something is bogus in your tarball (like you did not use <code>make dist</code> or preferably <code>make distcheck</code> to generate it), or the user compiling the source code did something wrong (like copying the entire directory without preserving the timestamps), or there is something bogus in the target system (e.g. <code>make</code> usually fail to work properly on a NFS-mounted directory if the clock of the NFS-server is not synchronized with that of the client).</p> <p>Another frequent source of unwelcome rebuilt is observed by people who keep the generated files in version-control system. See <a href="http://sourceware.org/automake/automake.html#CVS" rel="noreferrer">http://sourceware.org/automake/automake.html#CVS</a> for a discussion about this if that is your case.</p>

    1. COI would preemptively add that `AM_MAINTAINER_MODE` is not a solution. It just adds another point where breakage can occur. Don't keep generated files in source control and use `make distcheck` to build tarballs and you should be fine.

    2. COThe culprit ended up being git, since it does not preserve timestamps configure.ac was checked out to be newer then configure. Need to look into the issue why we keep generated files under source control.

    3. CO@KiRPiCH: Note also that with modern `automake`, you can usually go from `configure.ac` + `Makefile.am` to having everything ready to `./configure` by running `autoreconf -i`. No need to worry about running `aclocal`, `autoconf`, `autoheader`, `automake`, `libtoolize` and whatever else in the correct order. If that isn't enough, then make a script called `bootstrap.sh` (`autogen.sh` is another common name, but there's an obscure tool called `autogen`) that runs the autotools in the correct order.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
