21 2000-05-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
23 * prereq.m4: Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_MEMBERS, now that
24 autoconf requires that.

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

61 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
62 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc

82 2000-05-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
84 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _GNU_SOURCE if

87 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
89 2000-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
91 * fsusage.m4: Use AC_MSG_CHECKING instead of obsolete AC_CHECKING.

101 2000-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
104 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Emit the
105 actual #define via AH_VERBATIM. Don't need separate AC_DEFINE.
106 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
108 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
110 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
111 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
113 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
115 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
116 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
117 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
119 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
121 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not

132 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
133 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
135 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
137 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.

141 From John David Anglin.
143 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
144 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
146 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
148 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
150 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from

156 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
157 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
158 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
159 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
161 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
163 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
164 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
165 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
167 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
169 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
170 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
171 the underlying strftime.
173 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
175 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.

180 * codeset.m4: New file.
181 * iconv.m4: New file.
182 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.

186 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
187 for lib/localcharset.c.
189 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

193 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
195 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
196 the messages come out on separate lines.
198 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
199 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
200 * decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.

216 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
218 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
220 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
221 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
223 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
225 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

239 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
240 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
241 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
242 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
243 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
244 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
245 Reported by Volker Borchert.
247 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
249 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.

254 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
255 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
257 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
259 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of

261 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
263 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
265 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
267 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
268 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
271 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

274 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
276 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
278 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
279 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
281 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
283 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
284 as time.h in the compile check.
285 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
286 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
288 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
290 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in

299 * ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
300 * jm-macros.m4: (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
301 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
303 * jm-macros.m4: (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):

329 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
331 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
332 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
333 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
334 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
335 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.
337 2000-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
339 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.

341 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
343 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
344 Thanks to Akim for explaining.

355 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
356 because the latter didn't work.
358 2000-01-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
360 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add gethostname and getusershell.
361 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add memcpy and memset.

427 autoconf-2.14a-1999-12-20.
429 1999-12-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
431 * lstat-slash.m4: New file.

433 jm_FUNC_LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK.
435 1999-12-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

438 Too many systems seem to lack it.
440 * strftime.m4: Add checks for most of the cpp macros tested in
441 GNU's strftime.c. Prompted by a patch from Paul Eggert.

468 AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE.
470 1999-11-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
472 * ssize_t.m4: Remove file. No longer needed since the new version of

513 * jm-macros.m4: Require jm_BISON.
514 * bison.m4: New file.
516 1999-08-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
518 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Fix typo: missing comma
519 in value for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS, which broke ports to HP-UX 10.20.
521 1999-08-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
523 * getline.m4: Rename test file from conftestdata to conftest.data
524 to avoid conflicts with `conftest' on 8+3 filesystems.
