9 2001-03-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
11 * memcmp.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Remove my copy of AC_FUNC_MEMCMP,
12 now that the version in autoconf is equivalent.
13 (jm_FUNC_MEMCMP): Adjust to use AC_FUNC_MEMCMP.
15 * error.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ERROR): Invoke AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R.
16 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.

21 2001-02-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
23 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use mkstemp replacement if the system
24 lacks mkstemp. Compile our own tempname.c if we compile our own
25 mkstemp.c, as mkstemp relies on tempname.
27 2001-03-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
29 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Remove extra backslashes, now that
30 AH_VERBATIM really does output its argument verbatim.
32 2001-02-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
34 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Check for sys/resource.h.
36 2001-02-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
38 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Don't check for
39 getmntent via AC_CHECK_FUNCS, since that would get a `no' and disrupt
40 further attempts by AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to check with e.g., -lgen on
43 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Adapt to use AC_CACHE_CHECK etc.,
44 rather than AC_CACHE_VAL.
46 2001-02-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
48 * mbrtowc.m4: New file, defining jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC.
49 * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH):

57 2001-02-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
59 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.14d (not yet released), because
60 it includes the patch required for `large file' support with at least
61 HP-UX's 10.20 /bin/cc.
63 2001-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
65 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Restore prior use of
66 AS_IF, now that it works once again (mysteriously).
67 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Likewise.

71 Don't use filenames that are 8.3-equivalent to "conftest" on DOS.
72 * chown.m4: Rename conftestchown to conftest.chown.
73 * rename.m4: s/conftestdir/conftest.d1/ and s/conftestdir2/conftest.d2/.

75 Inspired by Pavel Roskin's change in autoconf.
77 2001-01-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
79 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Open-code what was
81 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Likewise.
83 2001-01-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
85 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Check for stddef.h, now that
86 quotearg.c includes it.
88 2001-01-15 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
90 * iconv.m4 (jm_ICONV): Also check whether the iconv declaration
93 2001-01-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
95 Be sure that headers are checked before used in code compiled
97 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove all header checks.
98 In place of that, invoke jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES.
99 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): New functions with the above checks.
100 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS.
101 Alan Iwi reported a build failure on an f300-fujitsu-uxpv4.1_ES;
102 The check for ssize_t was mistakenly run before the test for unistd.h.
104 The configure-time check for stdbool.h was missing.
105 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_HASH.
106 (jm_PREREQ_HASH): New function.
108 2001-01-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
110 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use AS_IF, not AS_IFELSE,
112 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Likewise.
114 2001-01-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
116 * rename.m4: Use temporary directories named conftestdir{,2}, not
117 foo and bar. Create conftestdir/ in the script, not in the C code.
118 Remove directories in the script, not in the C code.
119 Remove conftestdir{,2} before trying to create the directory.
120 Make the entire configure script fail if the mkdir fails.
122 2001-01-02 Volker Borchert <bt@teknon.de>
124 * rename.m4: New file.
125 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require vb_FUNC_RENAME.
127 2001-01-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
129 * libintl.m4 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Define MKINSTALLDIRS by
130 expanding the value of $ac_aux_dir, as in AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN,
131 so `make install' also works in VPATH builds.
133 2001-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
135 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even
136 on systems with utmpx.h. It's necessary for the declaration of utmp's
137 ut_user member. Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
139 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Include grp.h and pwd.h if available.
140 They are required for the declarations of getgrgid and getpwuid resp.
141 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for grp.h and pwd.h.
142 Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
144 2000-12-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
146 * libintl.m4 (AM_WITH_NLS): When using AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR,
147 prepend $(top_srcdir) to the value of MKINSTALLDIRS so that it
148 can be used in subdirectories.
150 2000-12-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
152 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Rewrite (though it's still a stub) to work better
155 2000-12-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
157 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): New file and macro.
158 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require jm_AC_DOS.

165 2000-12-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
167 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): If we need the replacement
168 strtoull, we may well need the replacement strtoul, too.
169 Check for declarations of strtoul and strtoull.
170 Check for strtol. Mainly as a cue to cause automake to include
171 strtol.c -- that file is included by each of strtoul.c and strtoull.c.
172 Check for limits.h -- strtol.c needs it.
174 2000-12-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
176 * off_t-format.m4 (OFF_T_PRINTF_FORMAT_STRING): New file/macro.
177 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): require it.
179 2000-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
181 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for stdint.h.
183 2000-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

195 2000-10-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
197 * fsusage.m4: s/AC_SHELL_IFELSE/AS_IFELSE/ to match autoconf renaming.
198 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: Likewise

208 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_DIRNAME): New macro.
209 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memrchr.
211 2000-09-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
213 * getloadavg.m4 (AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Restore the initial value of LIBS.
214 Otherwise, everyone ends up linking with -lelf for some configurations.
215 Reported by Mike Stone.
217 2000-08-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
219 * jm-macros.m4: Use jm_FUNC_FPENDING.
220 * fpending.m4: New file.
222 2000-08-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
224 * check-decl.m4: Include utmp.h `#if HAVE_UTMP_H', rather than
225 `#if !HAVE_UTMPX_H'. The latter would lose on systems with neither
226 utmp.h nor utmpx.h. Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
228 2000-08-11 J. David Anglin <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>
230 Improve fileutils installation on systems where running
231 programs (like install) can't be unlinked.

238 not char, for compatibility with glibc 2.1.3 strftime.c.
240 2000-07-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
242 * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH): Check for wcwidth declaration.
244 2000-07-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

247 getgrgid, getpwuid, getuid.
249 2000-07-16 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
251 * mbswidth.m4: New file.

258 2000-07-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
260 From a suggestion by Bruno Haible.
261 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
262 Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT. All uses changed.
263 Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
264 and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
265 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): s/AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT/AC_MBSTATE_T/.
267 2000-07-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
269 * strerror_r.m4: Mirror the correction made in autoconf.
271 * gnu-source.m4: Output to confdefs.h directly.
272 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
274 2000-07-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
276 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add a test to see if -lm is required
277 to link seq. If so, set SEQ_LIBM to -lm. From Bruno Haible.
279 * gnu-source.m4 (AC__GNU_SOURCE): New file/macro.
280 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require it.

286 Include <ctype.h> for use of isalpha.
288 2000-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
289 and Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
291 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Test for mbstate_t
292 only if the test for an object-type mbstate_t fails. This
293 prevents us from mistakenly reporting that mbstate_t is a
294 system object type after we "#define mbstate_t int" to work
297 2000-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
299 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use plain old `echo' instead
300 of the deprecated AC_CHECKING.

315 * chown.m4: Replace each use of AC_SUBST(LIBOBJS)/LIBOBJS=... with
316 AC_LIBOBJ(function_name).
317 * chown.m4: Likewise.
318 * fnmatch.m4: Likewise.

348 2000-06-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
350 * mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h. The latter is not included
351 by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test. From Bruno Haible.
353 2000-06-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
355 * check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
356 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
357 <utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.
359 2000-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
361 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
362 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
364 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
366 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
367 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
368 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
369 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
370 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
371 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
373 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
375 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.

405 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
406 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
407 the optional argument, `lib'.
409 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
411 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
413 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
415 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
416 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
417 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
419 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
420 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
421 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
422 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
423 CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
425 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
426 test program without and with the macro definition.
427 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
428 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
431 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
433 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
434 now that autoconf requires that.

437 #undefs. E.g., #undef HAVE_DECL_FERROR_UNLOCKED.
438 Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS, now that autoconf requires that.

465 * jm-macros.m4: Likewise.
466 * strftime.m4: Likewise.
468 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,

498 2000-05-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
500 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
501 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
502 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
505 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

524 this is needed to make ftello visible (e.g. glibc 2.1.3). Use
525 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
526 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
528 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

540 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
543 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
544 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
545 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
547 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
549 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
550 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
552 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
554 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
555 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
556 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
558 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
560 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
561 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
562 Christian Krackowizer.

565 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
566 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
567 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
569 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
571 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
572 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
574 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
576 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.

595 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
596 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
597 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
598 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
600 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
602 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
603 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
604 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
606 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
608 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
609 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use

632 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
634 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
635 the messages come out on separate lines.
637 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
638 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.

655 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
657 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
659 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
660 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
662 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
664 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

678 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
679 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
680 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
681 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
682 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
683 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
684 Reported by Volker Borchert.
686 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
688 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

693 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
694 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
696 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
698 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of

700 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
702 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
704 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
706 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
707 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
710 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

713 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
715 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
717 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
718 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
720 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
722 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
723 as time.h in the compile check.
724 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
725 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
727 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
729 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
731 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/

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

768 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
770 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
771 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
772 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
773 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
774 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
776 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
778 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.

780 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
782 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
783 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
785 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
787 * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_FUNC_GROUP_MEMBER, jm_FUNC_PUTENV,

792 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
794 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
795 because the latter didn't work.

907 AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE.
909 1999-11-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

960 1999-08-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
962 * getline.m4: Rename test file from conftestdata to conftest.data
963 to avoid conflicts with `conftest' on 8+3 filesystems.
