Only marginally useful, but some like it... This makes tests print "PASS" in green, and "FAIL" in red, when possible: The autogen.sh snippet ensures that this automake-1.11 feature is disabled when building-from-clone on a system with too-old automake. This *does* modify a source file (and a version-controlled one at that), but only when building from source on e.g. RHEL*

I started with: - Mac OS X 10.5.8 - Xcode installed - OCaml from GODI - qemu from git autoconf is really ancient (2.61). It doesn't have AM_SILENT_RULES and although we tried to make things work when autoconf lacks this by having: m4_ifndef([AM_SILENT_RULES], [m4_define([AM_SILENT_RULES],[])]) AM_SILENT_RULES([yes]) # make --enable-silent-rules the default. this nevertheless

Because this 'feature' is broken (since 2013): https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13928 we have to replace all instances of $(top_srcdir) in *_SOURCES lines with a relative path. According to what I read, this shouldn't break split builds, but I didn't test it. The only things automake moans about now are: * Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed

I pushed the (hopefully) completely non-controversial bits upstream: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/8a72616bf7bc686ad4d033482541fcd73c148b53 https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/b20d36aa1bcabfe1e5eefcf47b727280a6474be8 This patch is what remains. Rich.

Same as v2, except: - Drop the RUN_OUTPUT_FILE functionality completely. It will be replaced with enhanced .trs files as discussed. - Rebase on head. Rich.

Series of cleanups to autotools build config files to utilize the available xorg-server macros, defaults and more closely match other modern Xorg drivers. Notable improvements: - gitignore fully covers potential build artifacts - Simplify logic given stated minimum required version of xorg-server 1.8 - Remove use of deprecated, outdated or no longer required macros - Utilize xorg macros where

Hello everyone! I just released dovecot-metadata-8, which is an implementation of RFC 5464 (IMAP METADATA), allowing to add comments/annotations/metadata to folders of an email account. The major feature is that it works with Akonadi, or more specifically the Kolab backend thereof, while being dovecot-2.0 compatible. The module consists of 3 plugins, two IMAP frontends and one backend: *

Hello all, after FOMS I decided to take a look at the opus library and I found that I could improve a bit the build system and cleanup the code a little bit. Most of the changes to the code has been suggested by my two tools cowstats and missingstatic (part of the ruby-elf gem if you care). HTH, Diego

This patch series modernizes various aspects of the autotools based build system. There is a lot more that could and should be done, but I tried to stay conservative for now and just resolve some of the most obvious issues. Max Horn (5): configure: replace XIPH_C_FIND_ENDIAN by AC_C_BIGENDIAN autogen.sh: replace this by a simple call to autoreconf configure: always print

The autoreconf tool is provided by autoconf to do what custom autogen.sh scripts in many projects used to do. Only it is more robust and widely tested. It has been available for several years, too. No reason to rely on custom code for this. Signed-off-by: Max Horn <max at quendi.de> --- Makefile.am | 2 - autogen.sh | 168
