What is your question?

Hi,

At the beginning I would like to apologize for asking so many questions.

I want to create a package from the library that requires to call ./boostrap before configure and make. What is the preferable way to do it?

Have you read the CONTRIBUTING guide?

No need to apologize! We love to help as much as possible, don't hesitate to ask the questions you have (sometimes we might be too busy, if you don't get a response, you can ping and revive the ticket too)

You can call whatever you want in your recipes, if you want to do:

def build(self):
     self.run("./bootstrap")
     at = Autotools(self)
     at.configure()
     at.make()

is perfectly possible. Is this what you are looking for?
