Hello,
on a machine with more recent autotools, they complain that for instance
our "missing" script is too old. It seems that it would be easiest to do
what the comment in .bootstrap says, remove those files from the
repository and use automake -a to make sure we have a consistent version
of everything (no -f so it doesn't override our specific INSTALL,
config.guess, etc).
So I would like to apply the following:
remove: doc/mdate-sh doc/texinfo.tex install-sh missing ylwrap
--- a/.bootstrap Sat Sep 21 01:48:10 2013 +0200
+++ b/.bootstrap Sat Sep 21 10:42:52 2013 +0200

-# FIXME: Use automake -a? Then we could remove various

# We need to remove the "cache", else things are not regenerated properly
rm -rf autom4te.cache

-# script.

I am getting a few errors in the testsuite on shell at the moment (the
same that appear in the GMP testresults page) so I'll wait until that
settles a bit.
With recent autotools, we still get plenty of messages:
Makefile.am:126: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or
'*_CPPFLAGS')
Makefile.am:278: warning: source file 'cxx/dummy.cc' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:278: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding
output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same
subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
cxx/Makefile.am:21: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or
'*_CPPFLAGS')
demos/Makefile.am:24: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or
'*_CPPFLAGS')
[... repeated for all directories]
But I guess those can wait.
Comments?
