17 2001-02-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
19 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use mkstemp replacement if the system
20 lacks mkstemp. Compile our own tempname.c if we compile our own
21 mkstemp.c, as mkstemp relies on tempname.
23 2001-03-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
25 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Remove extra backslashes, now that
26 AH_VERBATIM really does output its argument verbatim.
28 2001-02-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
30 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Check for sys/resource.h.
32 2001-02-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
34 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Don't check for
35 getmntent via AC_CHECK_FUNCS, since that would get a `no' and disrupt
36 further attempts by AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to check with e.g., -lgen on
39 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Adapt to use AC_CACHE_CHECK etc.,
40 rather than AC_CACHE_VAL.
42 2001-02-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>

53 2001-02-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
55 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.14d (not yet released), because
56 it includes the patch required for `large file' support with at least
57 HP-UX's 10.20 /bin/cc.
59 2001-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
61 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Restore prior use of

79 2001-01-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
81 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Check for stddef.h, now that
82 quotearg.c includes it.
84 2001-01-15 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
86 * iconv.m4 (jm_ICONV): Also check whether the iconv declaration
89 2001-01-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
91 Be sure that headers are checked before used in code compiled
93 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove all header checks.
94 In place of that, invoke jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES.
95 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): New functions with the above checks.
96 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS.
97 Alan Iwi reported a build failure on an f300-fujitsu-uxpv4.1_ES;
98 The check for ssize_t was mistakenly run before the test for unistd.h.
100 The configure-time check for stdbool.h was missing.
101 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_HASH.
102 (jm_PREREQ_HASH): New function.
104 2001-01-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
106 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use AS_IF, not AS_IFELSE,
108 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Likewise.
110 2001-01-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
112 * rename.m4: Use temporary directories named conftestdir{,2}, not
113 foo and bar. Create conftestdir/ in the script, not in the C code.
114 Remove directories in the script, not in the C code.
115 Remove conftestdir{,2} before trying to create the directory.
116 Make the entire configure script fail if the mkdir fails.
118 2001-01-02 Volker Borchert <bt@teknon.de>
120 * rename.m4: New file.
121 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require vb_FUNC_RENAME.
123 2001-01-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
125 * libintl.m4 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Define MKINSTALLDIRS by
126 expanding the value of $ac_aux_dir, as in AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN,
127 so `make install' also works in VPATH builds.
129 2001-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
131 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even
132 on systems with utmpx.h. It's necessary for the declaration of utmp's
133 ut_user member. Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
135 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Include grp.h and pwd.h if available.
136 They are required for the declarations of getgrgid and getpwuid resp.
137 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for grp.h and pwd.h.
138 Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
140 2000-12-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
142 * libintl.m4 (AM_WITH_NLS): When using AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR,
143 prepend $(top_srcdir) to the value of MKINSTALLDIRS so that it
144 can be used in subdirectories.
146 2000-12-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

161 2000-12-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
163 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): If we need the replacement
164 strtoull, we may well need the replacement strtoul, too.
165 Check for declarations of strtoul and strtoull.
166 Check for strtol. Mainly as a cue to cause automake to include
167 strtol.c -- that file is included by each of strtoul.c and strtoull.c.
168 Check for limits.h -- strtol.c needs it.
170 2000-12-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
172 * off_t-format.m4 (OFF_T_PRINTF_FORMAT_STRING): New file/macro.
173 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): require it.
175 2000-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

191 2000-10-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
193 * fsusage.m4: s/AC_SHELL_IFELSE/AS_IFELSE/ to match autoconf renaming.
194 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: Likewise

205 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memrchr.
207 2000-09-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
209 * getloadavg.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Restore the initial value of LIBS.

218 2000-08-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
220 * check-decl.m4: Include utmp.h `#if HAVE_UTMP_H', rather than
221 `#if !HAVE_UTMPX_H'. The latter would lose on systems with neither
222 utmp.h nor utmpx.h. Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
224 2000-08-11 J. David Anglin <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>

238 * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH): Check for wcwidth declaration.
240 2000-07-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
242 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Check for declarations of these, too:
243 getgrgid, getpwuid, getuid.
245 2000-07-16 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
247 * mbswidth.m4: New file.

254 2000-07-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
256 From a suggestion by Bruno Haible.
257 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
258 Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT. All uses changed.
259 Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
260 and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
261 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): s/AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT/AC_MBSTATE_T/.
263 2000-07-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
265 * strerror_r.m4: Mirror the correction made in autoconf.
267 * gnu-source.m4: Output to confdefs.h directly.
268 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
270 2000-07-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
272 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add a test to see if -lm is required
273 to link seq. If so, set SEQ_LIBM to -lm. From Bruno Haible.
275 * gnu-source.m4 (AC__GNU_SOURCE): New file/macro.
276 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require it.

282 Include <ctype.h> for use of isalpha.
284 2000-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
285 and Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
287 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Test for mbstate_t
288 only if the test for an object-type mbstate_t fails. This
289 prevents us from mistakenly reporting that mbstate_t is a
290 system object type after we "#define mbstate_t int" to work
293 2000-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
295 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use plain old `echo' instead
296 of the deprecated AC_CHECKING.

312 AC_LIBOBJ(function_name).
313 * chown.m4: Likewise.
314 * fnmatch.m4: Likewise.

344 2000-06-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
346 * mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h. The latter is not included
347 by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test. From Bruno Haible.
349 2000-06-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
351 * check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
352 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
353 <utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.
355 2000-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
357 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
358 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
360 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
362 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
363 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
364 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
365 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
366 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
367 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
369 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
371 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.

401 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
402 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
403 the optional argument, `lib'.
405 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
407 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
409 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
411 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
412 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
413 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
415 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
416 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
417 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
418 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
419 CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
421 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
422 test program without and with the macro definition.
423 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
424 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
427 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
429 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
430 now that autoconf requires that.

462 * strftime.m4: Likewise.
464 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,

494 2000-05-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
496 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
497 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
498 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
501 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

521 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
522 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.

536 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
539 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
540 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
541 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
543 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
545 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
546 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
548 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
550 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
551 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
552 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
554 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
556 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
557 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
558 Christian Krackowizer.
560 More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
561 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
562 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
563 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
565 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
567 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
568 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
570 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
572 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
573 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.

591 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
592 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
593 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
594 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
596 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
598 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
599 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
600 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
602 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
604 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
605 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use

616 * iconv.m4: New file.
617 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.

628 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
630 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
631 the messages come out on separate lines.
633 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
634 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.

651 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
653 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
655 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
656 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
658 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
660 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

674 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
675 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
676 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
677 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
678 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
679 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
680 Reported by Volker Borchert.
682 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
684 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

689 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
690 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
692 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
694 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of

696 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
698 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
700 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
702 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
703 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
706 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

709 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
711 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
713 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
714 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
716 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
718 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
719 as time.h in the compile check.
720 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
721 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
723 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
725 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
727 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
728 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.

735 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
736 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
738 * jm-macros.m4 (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
739 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
740 that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
742 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
743 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.

764 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
766 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
767 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
768 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
769 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
770 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
772 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
774 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.

776 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
778 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
779 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
781 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
783 * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_FUNC_GROUP_MEMBER, jm_FUNC_PUTENV,

785 jm_FUNC_GETGROUPS AC_FUNC_VPRINTF, AC_FUNC_ALLOCA,
786 AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG, and jm_SYS_PROC_UPTIME.
788 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
790 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
791 because the latter didn't work.

956 1999-08-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
958 * getline.m4: Rename test file from conftestdata to conftest.data
959 to avoid conflicts with `conftest' on 8+3 filesystems.
