Subject: autotools patches for --*dir and upcoming versions
Date: Sun, 16 Nov 2008 17:37:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <491F6F28.3010409@impulze.org> (raw)
Hi there
I created a patch to let the --{dataroot,doc,pdf,html}dir to be passed
through configure instead of using the self written --with-*dir.
The patch also fixes some warnings spilled out by newer autotools
regarding ordering of AC_ macros and unquoted definitions.
The patch was created against the official 6.8 tarball.
Tested by invoking the usual, autoreconf procedures, followed by
./configure with --docdir=/something and invoking make install-html at
the very end.
I'd like to hear your opinion.
The ChangeLog entries would be as follows:

2008-11-15 Daniel Mierswa <impulze@impulze.org>
* configure.ac: use config directory for m4-macro searches, provide
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, so ltmain.sh and others get updated by autoreconf,
remove self-written --with-{dataroot,doc,pdf,html}dir switches and
let the
ones created by autoconf pass through, remove unneeded AC_SUBST
