I am in the midst of porting Quagga 0.99.20. We need to do the upgrade
because of a number of security issues since the last upgrade was done.
Unfortunately, I discovered that along about Quagga 0.99.14, the
required version of automake was bumped to 1.11 and we currently only
have 1.10 in Solaris.
So, it would seem that I have three choices.
Add automake 1.11.1 to Solaris and make it the default version.
Add automake 1.11.1 to Solaris and leave the default version as 1.10.
Make a private copy of automake 1.11.1, use that to build Quagga and
then make patches to patch the *.in files instead of patching the *.ac
files as it is doing now.
Of course, in either of the first two options, the new version would
have to be added to the Userland CBE. I would be worried about the
ramifications on all the other packages of the first option and I don't
have a lot of time. Also, I would still have to make a private copy
until the new packages were added to the build machine since I don't
have time to wait for them.
Has anybody run into this before and if so, what did you do? Does
anybody have any info about making a private copy of automake?
