Hi,
I'm confused by the build model for qmp. I see there are (extraneous with respect to automake) Makefile.in's and a configure script, but at the same time I see automake related files like configure.ac and Makefile.am's. QIO and Grid appear to be purely automake, whereas this library has both. If the automake build style works, then the extraneous files should be removed. Otherwise, the library appears to be supporting two different (but probably equivalent) standard build styles. It's easier for people to contribute new features if we understand unambiguously how qmp is supposed to build. I believe this is easy enough to fix (just remove the extraneous files and update .gitignore), but this make structure may be necessary for legacy reasons that I'm ignorant of. Please let us know, thanks.
