NAME
gnuconfig.eclass - Refresh bundled gnuconfig files (config.guess, config.sub)DESCRIPTION
This eclass is used to automatically update files that typically come with automake to the newest version available on the system. The most common use of this is to update config.guess and config.sub when configure dies from misguessing your canonical system name (CHOST). It can also be used to update other files that come with automake, e.g. depcomp, mkinstalldirs, etc.
