+# This shows how to use 
+# the glossaries package (http://www.ctan.org/pkg/glossaries)
+# the glossaries-extra package (http://www.ctan.org/pkg/glossaries-extra)
+# with latexmk.
+
+# N.B. There is also the OBSOLETE glossary package
+# (http://www.ctan.org/pkg/glossary), which has some differences.  See items
+# 2 and 3
+
+# 1. If you use the glossaries or the glossaries-extra package, then you use:
+
+   add_cus_dep( 'acn', 'acr', 0, 'makeglossaries' );
+   add_cus_dep( 'glo', 'gls', 0, 'makeglossaries' );
+   $clean_ext .= " acr acn alg glo gls glg";
+   sub makeglossaries {
+      my ($name, $path) = fileparse( $$Psource );
+      return system "makeglossaries -d '$path' '$name'";
+  }
+
+
+# 2. If you use the OBSOLETE glossary package, then you can do
+
+   add_cus_dep( 'glo', 'gls', 0, 'makeglo2gls' );
+   sub makeglo2gls {
+       system("makeindex -s \"$_[0].ist\" -t \"$_[0].glg\" -o \"$_[0].gls\" \"$_[0].glo\"" );
+   }
+
+# 2. If you use the OBSOLETE glossary package, then you can do
+#    the following for acronyms:
+
+    # ONLY FOR PACKAGE glossary, NOT FOR glossaries and glossaries-extra
+    add_cus_dep( 'acr', 'acn', 0, 'makeacr2acn' );
+    sub makeacr2acn {
+      system( "makeindex -s \"$_[0].ist\" -t \"$_[0].alg\" -o \"$_[0].acn\" \"$_[0].acr\"" );
+    }
+
+# ===> WARNING: In the current glossaries and glossaries-extra packages
+#      the roles of the .acr and .acn files are exchanged, so the above
+#      code will fail with the more modern packages.
