1 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
3 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
4 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
6 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
8 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
9 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
10 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
11 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
12 From John David Anglin.
14 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
15 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
17 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
19 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
21 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from

25 2000-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
27 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
28 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
29 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
30 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
32 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
34 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>

38 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
40 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,

42 the underlying strftime.
44 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
46 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.
49 2000-02-02 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>

53 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.
55 2000-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
57 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
58 for lib/localcharset.c.
60 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
62 * regex.m4: Make sure re_compile_pattern accepts patterns like `{1'.
64 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
66 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
67 the messages come out on separate lines.
69 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
70 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
71 * decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.
73 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add getlogin, ttyname, and geteuid.
75 2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

87 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
89 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
91 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
92 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
94 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
96 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with
97 `[' and `]' and remove uses of `changequote'.

110 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
111 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
112 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
113 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
114 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
115 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
116 Reported by Volker Borchert.
118 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
120 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

125 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
126 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
128 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
130 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
131 functions. Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
132 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
134 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
136 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
138 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
139 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
142 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

145 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
147 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
149 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
150 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
152 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
154 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
155 as time.h in the compile check.
156 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
157 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
159 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
161 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
163 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
164 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.
166 * fsusage.m4: New file. Extracted from fileutils/configure.in.
167 s/space/ac_fsusage_space/.
168 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Take two parameters.
170 * ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
171 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
172 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
174 * jm-macros.m4: (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
175 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
176 that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
178 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
179 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.

200 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
202 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
203 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
204 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
205 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
206 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
208 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
210 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.

212 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
214 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
215 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
217 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
219 * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_FUNC_GROUP_MEMBER, jm_FUNC_PUTENV,

224 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
226 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
227 because the latter didn't work.

231 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add gethostname and getusershell.
232 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memcpy and memset.

392 1999-08-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
394 * getline.m4: Rename test file from conftestdata to conftest.data

522 * jm-macros.m4: Define GNU_PACKAGE here.

524 replaced e.g., in the *.sh files of the sh-utils.
526 1999-03-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
528 * jm-macros.m4: s/jm_WITH_REGEX/jm_INCLUDED_REGEX/.
