3 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
4 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
6 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
8 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
9 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
10 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
11 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
12 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
13 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
15 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
17 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.

46 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Replace with AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
47 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
48 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
49 the optional argument, `lib'.
51 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
53 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
55 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
57 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
58 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
59 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
61 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
62 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
63 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
64 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
65 CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
67 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
68 test program without and with the macro definition.
69 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
70 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
73 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
75 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
76 now that autoconf requires that.
78 * jm-glibc-io.m4: Add a kludge to make autoheader emit the required
79 #undefs. E.g., #undef HAVE_DECL_FERROR_UNLOCKED.
80 Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS, now that autoconf requires that.

105 autoconf requires that.
106 * lib-check.m4: Likewise.
107 * jm-macros.m4: Likewise.
108 * strftime.m4: Likewise.
110 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
111 now that autoconf requires that.
113 2000-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
115 * stat.m4: Require jm_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
116 * lstat.m4: Likewise.
118 2000-05-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
120 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): New macro.
123 2000-05-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

142 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
143 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
144 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
147 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
149 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Save and restore LIBS around AC_SEARCH_LIBS
150 call for clock_gettime.
151 (LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME): Set and AC_SUBST.
153 * search-libs.m4: Update from autoconf.
155 su doesn't work on Solaris2.6.
156 * lib-check.m4: When checking for struct spwd.sp_pwdp, also include
157 <shadow.h>. Reported by Dragos Harabor.

163 2000-05-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
165 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if
166 this is needed to make ftello visible (e.g. glibc 2.1.3). Use
167 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
168 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
170 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
172 * fsusage.m4: Use AC_MSG_CHECKING instead of obsolete AC_CHECKING.

175 Based on a patch from Bruno Haible.
177 2000-04-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

182 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
185 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
186 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
187 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
189 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
191 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
192 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
194 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
196 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
197 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
198 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
200 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
202 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
203 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
204 Christian Krackowizer.
206 More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
207 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
208 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
209 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
211 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
213 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
214 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
216 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
218 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
219 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
220 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
221 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
222 From John David Anglin.
224 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
225 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
227 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
229 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
231 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from

237 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
238 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
239 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
240 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
242 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
244 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
245 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
246 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
248 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
250 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
251 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
252 the underlying strftime.
254 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
256 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.

261 * codeset.m4: New file.
262 * iconv.m4: New file.
263 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.
265 2000-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
267 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
268 for lib/localcharset.c.
270 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

274 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
276 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
277 the messages come out on separate lines.
279 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
280 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
281 * decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.
283 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add getlogin, ttyname, and geteuid.
285 2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

297 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
299 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
301 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
302 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
304 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
306 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

320 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
321 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
322 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
323 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
324 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
325 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
326 Reported by Volker Borchert.
328 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
330 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

335 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
336 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
338 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
340 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
341 functions. Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
342 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
344 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
346 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
348 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
349 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
352 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
354 * lib-check.m4: New file containing library-related checks from
355 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
357 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
359 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
360 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
362 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
364 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
365 as time.h in the compile check.
366 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
367 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
369 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
371 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in
373 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: s/list_mounted_fs/ac_list_mounted_fs/
374 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.
376 * fsusage.m4: New file. Extracted from fileutils/configure.in.

380 * ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
381 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
382 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
384 * jm-macros.m4: (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
385 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
386 that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
388 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
389 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.

410 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
412 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
413 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
414 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
415 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
416 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
418 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
420 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.
421 Use AC_HEADER_TIME. Volker Borchert reported that OpenBSD-2.3/sparc
422 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
424 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
425 Thanks to Akim for explaining.
427 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

432 AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG, and jm_SYS_PROC_UPTIME.
434 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
436 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
437 because the latter didn't work.
439 2000-01-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
441 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add gethostname and getusershell.
442 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memcpy and memset.
443 Add these, too: stime strcspn stpcpy strstr strtol strtoul.
445 Add these: euidaccess memcmp mkdir rmdir rpmatch strndup strverscmp.

503 Check for gettimeofday.
505 1999-12-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
507 * strftime.m4: Remove kludge, now that I'm using the fixed
508 autoconf-2.14a-1999-12-20.
510 1999-12-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
512 * lstat-slash.m4: New file.
513 * jm-macros.m4: Use the new macro:
514 jm_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
516 1999-12-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
518 * perl.m4: Require that File::Compare be available, too.
519 Too many systems seem to lack it.
521 * strftime.m4: Add checks for most of the cpp macros tested in
522 GNU's strftime.c. Prompted by a patch from Paul Eggert.
524 1999-11-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
526 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Work around a
527 problem with the QNX 4.25 shell, which doesn't propagate exit
