similar to: [PATCH libguestfs] build: enable automake's color-tests option

Thanks to the reminder from Dan Berrange, here's a patch to make build output less verbose, by default. E.g., instead of the redundant multi-line compilation/linking commands, you'll see something like this by default: CC guestfsd-fsck.o CC guestfsd-grep.o CC guestfsd-grub.o CC guestfsd-glob.o CC guestfsd-guestfsd.o CC guestfsd-headtail.o CC

From: "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones at redhat.com> Earlier versions of automake complain if they get a configuration parameter which they don't understand.

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

Here's a patch series to make libguestfs use gnulib via a git submodule. The first thing I did was to look at the failures from "make syntax-check" and fix the config.h-related ones below. The others are now temporarily disabled via a variable in cfg.mk. I fixed the config-h problems and moved those change sets to precede the test-adding one, so that bisection still works, even if

There were a few "infelicities" that kept the "make distcheck" test from passing. These three patches combine to fix all of them, punting on only one by disabling the install-data-hook rule. >From 7504acedcb71bd80d99abe412e6669b267cade38 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyering at redhat.com> Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2009 13:37:18 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/3]

i have been playing around trying to get ice2 to work now for quite some time and frankly i am a bit frustrated by now... the anoying thing is how early in the whole proccess my problems actually start! running ./autogen.sh in the newest cvs version of ice2 results in <p>idoru:/usr/src/ices# ./autogen.sh I am going to run ./configure with no arguments - if you wish to pass any to it,

Hi all, Here is a patch to user pkg-config (if available) to detect libogg and fall back to old method if pkg-config fails. Pkg-config has the advantage that it can do configured to do the right thing when cross-compiling.
