AC_CONFIG_FILES in configure.ac works well only with Makefiles.
Other files have to be handled by Makefile.am so depedencies
are tracked properly.
There is a problem that Python sub-directories depend on ipasetup.py
which is one level above the sub-directory. This means that depedencies
are the other way around that expected. This is being worked around
using hack from

configure is easiest option how to automatically generate POTFILES.in.
Attempts to add it to po/Makefile* have big potential to create cyclic
depedencies and cause other trouble.
Given how rare operation adding a source file is, I think it is sufficient
to document that configure needs to be run again after adding a source file
with translatable strings.

We now use standard framework generatedby "gettextize" utility.
It has two limitations which I do not consider sufficiently important
to invest into hand-made solution:
1. It can automatically gather strings only from files which have some
file extension like .c or .py. Right now we do not have any
translatable strings in Python files without extensions. Given that these
files will be removed from source tree and replaced with entry points
from setuptools I do not see a reason to invest into supporting this.
2. It does not automatically strip untranslated strings from po files.
This is a manual step in mainteiner's in workflow anyway so I will
add separate Makefile target for it later on.
This commit contains gettextize instrastructure + filled-in files
Makevars and POTFILES.in.

This is a huge hack. rpms target will touch VERSION.m4 file. This change
is then detected by automake Makefiles which subsequently re-execute configure
and make.
We have to workaround fact that variables in new make targets
(executed after new configure) are different than original ones.
Also, we have to 'bake-in' precise snapshot version from Git to
VERSION.m4 inside of RPM tarball so the RPM does not depend on git
anymore.
All this magic slows build down a bit.
Do not enable IPA_VERSION_IS_GIT_SNAPSHOT if you want fastest possible builds.
The option IPA_VERSION_IS_GIT_SNAPSHOT is now enabled by default as it
was before we started the build system refactoring effort.

At the time of this writting
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Manpages
says this:
When installing man pages, note that they should be installed uncompressed
as the build system will compress them as needed. The compression method
may change, so it is important to reference the pages in the %files section
with a pattern that takes this into account:
%{_mandir}/man1/foo.1*
Removing the compression also allows to remove several install-data-hook
targets from Makefile.am files.

At the same time, I've renamed tmpfilesd config file to static name
"ipa.conf" instead of using package-specific name. It had no purpose
and just complicated build and packaging.
Variable substitution into configuration has to be done in Makefile
and not in Autoconf as documented in:
Autoconf v2.69 manual chapter 4.8.2 Installation Directory Variables:
... Most of these variables have values that rely on prefix or
exec_prefix. ... Similarly, you should not rely on AC_CONFIG_FILES
to replace bindir and friends in your shell scripts and other files;
instead, let make manage their replacement.

This version builds only one version of Python packages. If you want to
build for Python 2 & 3 call configure twice using different --with-python
or specify PYTHON variable when calling make.
dist-hook is using SOURCES.txt file from egg-info.
According to Petr Viktorin this should be enough for our purposes
and avoids need to create plugins for setuptools.
Currently VPATH builds do not work for various reasons.
This should be fixed later on.

Version information is now in VERSION.m4 instead of VERSION.
Makefile target version-update was minimized and configure can be run
before make. Makefile temporarily contains hardcoded version which has
to match the one specified in VERSION.m4.
This is preparatory step which will allow us to replace hand-made
Makefile with one generated by Automake.

Package config is faster because it does not invoke compiler

Top-level Makefile is still not managed by Automake (e.g. hand-made).
This is preparatory work. Other configure.ac files will be gradually
merged into the top-level one. After that we will be able to throw-away
