1 2000-07-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
3 * uptime.m4: Put double quotes around use of $cross_compiling.
5 2000-06-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
7 * mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h. The latter is not included
8 by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test. From Bruno Haible.
10 2000-06-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
12 * check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
13 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
14 <utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.
16 2000-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
18 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
19 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
21 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
23 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
24 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
25 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
26 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
27 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
28 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
30 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
32 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.

52 `checking whether...' message to be consistent with that of the
55 2000-06-16 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
57 * glibc21.m4 (jm_GLIBC21): Define GLIBC21 for Makefiles, not for C.
59 2000-06-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
61 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Replace with AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
62 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
63 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
64 the optional argument, `lib'.
66 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
68 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
70 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
72 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
73 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
74 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
76 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
77 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
78 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
79 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from

82 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
83 test program without and with the macro definition.
84 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
85 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
88 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
90 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
91 now that autoconf requires that.
93 * jm-glibc-io.m4: Add a kludge to make autoheader emit the required
94 #undefs. E.g., #undef HAVE_DECL_FERROR_UNLOCKED.
95 Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS, now that autoconf requires that.
97 2000-05-26 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
99 * glibc21.m4: New file.
100 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_MACROS): Call jm_GLIBC21.

117 2000-05-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
119 * prereq.m4: Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_MEMBERS, now that
120 autoconf requires that.
121 * lib-check.m4: Likewise.
122 * jm-macros.m4: Likewise.
123 * strftime.m4: Likewise.
125 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
126 now that autoconf requires that.
128 2000-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
130 * stat.m4: Require jm_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
131 * lstat.m4: Likewise.
133 2000-05-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
135 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): New macro.
138 2000-05-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

157 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
158 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
159 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
162 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
164 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Save and restore LIBS around AC_SEARCH_LIBS
165 call for clock_gettime.

168 * search-libs.m4: Update from autoconf.
170 su doesn't work on Solaris2.6.
171 * lib-check.m4: When checking for struct spwd.sp_pwdp, also include
172 <shadow.h>. Reported by Dragos Harabor.

176 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add strndup.
178 2000-05-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
180 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if
181 this is needed to make ftello visible (e.g. glibc 2.1.3). Use
182 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
183 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
185 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
187 * fsusage.m4: Use AC_MSG_CHECKING instead of obsolete AC_CHECKING.
189 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Add BeOS support.
190 Based on a patch from Bruno Haible.
192 2000-04-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

197 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
200 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
201 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
202 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
204 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
206 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
207 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
209 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
211 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
212 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
213 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
215 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
217 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
218 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
219 Christian Krackowizer.
221 More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
222 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
223 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
224 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
226 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
228 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
229 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
231 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
233 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
234 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
235 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
236 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
237 From John David Anglin.
239 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
240 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
242 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
244 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
246 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from

250 2000-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
252 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
253 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
254 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
255 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
257 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
259 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
260 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
261 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
263 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
265 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
266 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
267 the underlying strftime.
269 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
271 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.
274 2000-02-02 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
276 * codeset.m4: New file.
277 * iconv.m4: New file.
278 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.
280 2000-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
282 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
283 for lib/localcharset.c.
285 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
287 * regex.m4: Make sure re_compile_pattern accepts patterns like `{1'.
289 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
291 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
292 the messages come out on separate lines.
294 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
295 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
296 * decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.
298 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add getlogin, ttyname, and geteuid.
300 2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

312 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
314 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
316 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
317 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
319 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
321 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

335 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
336 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
337 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
338 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
339 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
340 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
341 Reported by Volker Borchert.
343 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
345 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.
347 2000-02-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
349 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ADDEXT): Fix typo that resulted in no
350 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
351 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
353 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
355 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
356 functions. Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
357 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
359 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
361 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
363 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
364 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
367 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
369 * lib-check.m4: New file containing library-related checks from
370 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
372 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
374 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
375 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
377 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
379 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
380 as time.h in the compile check.
381 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
382 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
384 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
386 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
388 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
389 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.
391 * fsusage.m4: New file. Extracted from fileutils/configure.in.
392 s/space/ac_fsusage_space/.
393 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Take two parameters.
395 * ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
396 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
397 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
399 * jm-macros.m4: (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
400 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
401 that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
403 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
404 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.

407 (AC_SUBST(DF_PROG)): Moved from fileutils/configure.in.
409 2000-01-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

425 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
427 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
428 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
429 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
430 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
431 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
433 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
435 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.
436 Use AC_HEADER_TIME. Volker Borchert reported that OpenBSD-2.3/sparc
437 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
439 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
440 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
442 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
444 * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_FUNC_GROUP_MEMBER, jm_FUNC_PUTENV,

447 AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG, and jm_SYS_PROC_UPTIME.
449 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
451 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
452 because the latter didn't work.
454 2000-01-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
456 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add gethostname and getusershell.
457 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memcpy and memset.
458 Add these, too: stime strcspn stpcpy strstr strtol strtoul.
460 Add these: euidaccess memcmp mkdir rmdir rpmatch strndup strverscmp.

522 * strftime.m4: Remove kludge, now that I'm using the fixed
523 autoconf-2.14a-1999-12-20.
525 1999-12-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
527 * lstat-slash.m4: New file.

1099 * getline.m4: Don't set am_cv_func_working_getline before the
1100 cache-check for the same variable -- that defeated the purpose of

1102 on systems with losing getline functions -- HP-UX 10.20 is one.
