1 2000-05-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
3 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
4 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
5 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
8 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
10 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Save and restore LIBS around AC_SEARCH_LIBS
11 call for clock_gettime.
12 (LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME): Set and AC_SUBST.
14 * search-libs.m4: Update from autoconf.
16 su doesn't work on Solaris2.6.
17 * lib-check.m4: When checking for struct spwd.sp_pwdp, also include
18 <shadow.h>. Reported by Dragos Harabor.
20 2000-05-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
22 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add strndup.
24 2000-05-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
26 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if
27 this is needed to make ftello visible (e.g. glibc 2.1.3). Use
28 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
29 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
31 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
33 * fsusage.m4: Use AC_MSG_CHECKING instead of obsolete AC_CHECKING.
35 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Add BeOS support.
36 Based on a patch from Bruno Haible.
38 2000-04-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
40 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_GETPAGESIZE): New macro.
43 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
46 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
47 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
48 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
50 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
52 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
53 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
55 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
57 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
58 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
59 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
61 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
63 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
64 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
65 Christian Krackowizer.
67 More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
68 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
69 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
70 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
72 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
74 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
75 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
77 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
79 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
80 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
81 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
82 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
83 From John David Anglin.
85 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
86 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
88 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
90 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
92 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from

96 2000-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
98 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
99 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
100 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
101 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
103 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
105 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
106 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
107 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
109 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
111 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
112 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
113 the underlying strftime.
115 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
117 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.

122 * codeset.m4: New file.
123 * iconv.m4: New file.
124 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.
126 2000-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
128 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
129 for lib/localcharset.c.
131 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

135 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
137 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
138 the messages come out on separate lines.
140 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
141 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.

146 2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
148 * check-decl.m4: Add getenv to the list.
150 2000-02-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

155 2000-02-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
157 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Rename replacement function from
158 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
160 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
162 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
163 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
165 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
167 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

181 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
182 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
183 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
184 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
185 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
186 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
187 Reported by Volker Borchert.
189 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
191 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

196 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
197 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
199 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
201 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
202 functions. Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
203 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
205 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
207 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
209 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
210 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
213 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

218 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
220 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
221 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
223 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
225 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
226 as time.h in the compile check.
227 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
228 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
230 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
232 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
234 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
235 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.

242 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
243 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
245 * jm-macros.m4: (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
246 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so

249 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
250 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.

274 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
275 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
276 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
277 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.

283 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
285 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
286 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
288 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

292 jm_FUNC_GETGROUPS AC_FUNC_VPRINTF, AC_FUNC_ALLOCA,
293 AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG, and jm_SYS_PROC_UPTIME.
295 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
297 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
298 because the latter didn't work.

410 AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE.
412 1999-11-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

461 in value for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS, which broke ports to HP-UX 10.20.
463 1999-08-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
465 * getline.m4: Rename test file from conftestdata to conftest.data
466 to avoid conflicts with `conftest' on 8+3 filesystems.

491 compatible with future autoconf versions. Also, some minor m4
492 quoting problems have been fixed.
494 1999-07-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
496 * ulonglong.m4 (jm_AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG): Make sure
497 that we can shift, multiply and divide unsigned long long
