[PATCH v2] Makefile: default to -lcurl when no CURL_CONFIG or CURLDIR

2014-04-28 Thread Dave Borowitz
The original implementation of CURL_CONFIG support did not match the
original behavior of using -lcurl when CURLDIR was not set. This broke
implementations that were lacking curl-config but did have libcurl
installed along system libraries, such as MSysGit. In other words, the
assumption that curl-config is always installed was incorrect.

Instead, if CURL_CONFIG is empty or returns an empty result (e.g. due
to curl-config being missing), use the old behavior of falling back to
-lcurl.

This is wrong, no? With CURL_CONFIG not set, it currently *does* run
curl-config, see below.

Doesn't that definition just define CURL_CONFIG unconditionally? How
are the first condition ever supposed to get triggered?

$ make
make: curl-config: Command not found
GIT_VERSION = 1.9.2.462.gf3f11fa
make: curl-config: Command not found
* new build flags
* new link flags
* new prefix flags
GEN common-cmds.h
...

Yuck.

An earlier iteration of the patch used "CURL_CONFIG ?= curl-config",
but that would not have been much different:

$ cat >Makefile <<\EOF
CURL_CONFIG ?= curl-config
ifeq "$(CURL_CONFIG)" ""
X=Empty
else
X=NotEmpty
endif
ifdef CURL_CONFIG
Z=Defined
else
Z=Undefined
endif
all::
@echo "$(X) $(Z) CURL_CONFIG=<$(CURL_CONFIG)>"
EOF
$ make
NotEmpty Defined CURL_CONFIG=
$ make CURL_CONFIG=""
Empty Undefined CURL_CONFIG=<>
$ CURL_CONFIG="" make
Empty Undefined CURL_CONFIG=<>

As the first one (the default) will still use curl-config and
passing an explicit CURL_CONFIG="" on the command line would be the
only way to squelch this unpleasantness.  If you change

CURL_CONFIG ?= curl-config

to

CURL_CONFIG = curl-config

in the above illustration, the first two would be the same result as
above, and the last one will behave the same as the first one---an
environment set to empty is still protected from the default defined
in the Makefile.

I think something along the lines of 

ifdef CURLDIR
CURL_LIBCURL =
else
CURL_CONFIG = curl-config
CURL_LIBCURL := $(shell sh -c '$(CURL_CONFIG) --libs' 
2>/dev/null)
fi

may be the right way to write this?

Note that $(shell $(CURL_CONFIG) --libs) when CURL_CONFIG is empty
would barf when $(CURL_CONFIG) expands to an empty string.

There's still the fact that msysGit does *not* need CURLDIR, but
doesn't have curl-config either. So I think this one will also
complain for us.

Even with 2>/dev/null?
