1 2002-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
3 * jm-macros.m4: Don't AC_REPLACE(strnlen), now that we use
4 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN. That would end up putting two copies of strnlen.o
5 in the library, and that makes some versions of ranlib object.
7 2002-04-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
9 * malloc.m4: (jm_FUNC_MALLOC): Change the `checking ...' message
10 to be more precise. Rather than saying we're checking whether the
11 function `works', say what we're testing.
12 * realloc.m4 (jm_FUNC_REALLOC): Likewise.
13 Reported by Bruno Haible.
15 2002-02-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
17 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Do not replace stime; no longer used.
18 Check for clock_settime.
20 2002-02-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
23 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require AC_FUNC_ACL.
24 Do not check for acl or sys/acl.h, as AC_FUNC_ACL does that now.
26 2002-02-16 gettextize <bug-gnu-gettext@gnu.org>
28 * codeset.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
29 * gettext.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
30 * glibc21.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.
31 * iconv.m4: Upgrade to gettext-0.11.

39 2002-02-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
41 * m4/prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_POSIXVER): New macro.
44 2002-01-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
46 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require autoconf-2.52g.
47 * strnlen.m4: Remove file, now that it's part of autoconf.
49 2002-01-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
51 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require AC_FUNC_FSEEKO.
53 2002-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
55 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use AC_FUNC_STRNLEN.
56 Remove useless quotes: DF_PROG="df".
57 * strnlen.m4: New file.
59 2001-12-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
61 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for iswspace.
62 Suggestion from Bruno Haible.
64 2001-11-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
66 * mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Update comment to reflect that
67 SunOS4.1.4 and solaris2.5.1 lose, too.
69 2001-11-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
71 * mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Don't bother with a temporary
72 directory. Use "conftestXXXXXX" as the template.
73 Suggestion from Paul Eggert.
75 * mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): Close each descriptor immediately,
76 so the test doesn't mistakenly hit the max-open-files limit.
78 2001-11-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
80 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_TEMPNAME): Check for declaration of getenv.
82 2001-11-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
84 * mkstemp.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP): New file and macro.
85 Prompted by a report from Bob Proulx.
87 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Don't test for mkstemp here.
88 Instead, require UTILS_FUNC_MKSTEMP.
90 2001-11-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
92 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Remove code to set POW_LIBM.
93 Now, that's done as part of AC_FUNC_STRTOD.
95 2001-10-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
97 * jm-winsz1.m4 (jm_WINSIZE_IN_PTEM): Do not define
98 WINSIZE_IN_PTEM if <termios.h> defines struct winsize.
100 2001-11-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
102 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_PHYSMEM): New function.
105 2001-11-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
107 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.52f.
108 (AC_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AC_FUNC_OBSTACK, AC_FUNC_STRTOD):
109 Use these AC_-prefixed names, not the AM_-prefixed ones.
111 * afs.m4 (jm_AFS): Quote the body. Patch by Akim Demaille.
113 2001-11-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
115 * fpending.m4: Remove unused cruft that saved, set, and restored $DEFS.
117 2001-11-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
119 * jm-glibc-io.m4n (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Quote first arg
122 * dirfd.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD): Rework so dirfd.c doesn't have to
123 know the name of the variable in the macro definition.
125 2001-11-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
127 * dirfd.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD): New macro.
128 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require UTILS_FUNC_DIRFD.
130 2001-10-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
132 * error.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ERROR):
133 Do not invoke AC_CHECK_FUNCS with strerror_r, as
134 AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R does that.
135 Check for strerror declaration.
137 * strerror_r.m4: Add copyright notice, as nontrivial m4 files
138 are supposed to have them these days.
139 (AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Always do char* test, so that it gets cached.
140 Merge changes from latest Autoconf CVS.
141 Rename ac_cv_func_strerror_r_works to ac_cv_func_strerror_r_char_p,
142 and rename HAVE_WORKING_STRERROR_R to STRERROR_R_CHAR_P, since
143 POSIX decided to standardize on the int flavor of strerror_r.
145 2001-09-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
147 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): See if
148 `struct fsstat' has the `f_fstypename' member.
149 Use that to define FS_TYPE, which is now used to make
150 the getfsstat link test tighter.
152 2001-09-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
154 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS)
155 [one-argument getmntent function]): Include stdio.h before mntent.h.
156 SunOS4.1.x needs it for the declaration of `FILE'.
157 Patch by Volker Borchert.
159 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS)
160 Check for these headers: sys/param.h sys/ucred.h sys/mount.h
161 sys/fs_types.h, and make the link-test for getfsstat guard #include
162 directives with appropriate #if HAVE_*_H tests so that we can
163 detect getfsstat on Apple Darwin1.3.7 systems.
164 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
165 Fix harmless typo in cache variable name: s/getsstat/getfsstat/.
167 2001-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
169 Fix bug reported by Petter Reinholdtsen for HP-UX 10.20, which
170 #defines strtoimax. Also treat the other strto* functions
173 * xstrtoimax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX):
174 Check for strtoul and strtoumax,
175 as those declarations are made even in the signed case.
176 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX):
177 Likewise, for strtol and strtoimax.
179 2001-09-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
181 * gettext.m4: Use the version from gettext-0.10.40, not CVS.
183 2001-09-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
185 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Add a compile-test
186 instead of the mere test for existence of mntent.h. The latter
187 would get a false-positive on AIX 3.4 systems.
188 In the outer getmntent if-block, don't die if neither of the getmntent
189 tests succeeds. Instead, just fall through and continue with the
192 2001-09-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
194 * gettext.m4: New file. From gettext.
195 * lcmessage.m4: Sync with gettext -- this changes only comments.
196 * progtest.m4: Likewise
197 * isc-posix.m4: Decrement serial number to sync with gettext.
198 * glibc21.m4: Likewise.
200 * libintl.m4: Remove. No longer used.
202 2001-09-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
204 * xstrtoimax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX): Check for declaration of
206 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): Check for declaration of
209 2001-09-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

213 * nanosleep.m4, putenv.m4, readdir.m4, realloc.m4, rename.m4,
214 * st_dm_mode.m4, stat.m4, strerror_r.m4, timespec.m4, utimbuf.m4,
215 * utimes.m4: Use AC_DEFINE rather than AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED,
216 whenever the right hand side need not be expanded by the shell.
218 2001-09-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
220 * fnmatch.m4 (jm_FUNC_FNMATCH): Remove test for GNU C
221 library. It's not correct, as some older glibcs are buggy.
222 fnmatch wasn't fixed until glibc 2.2.
224 Use AC_DEFINE, not AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED, as there's no
225 special shell magic here.
227 2001-09-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
229 * mkdir-slash.m4 (UTILS_FUNC_MKDIR_TRAILING_SLASH): New file/macro.
230 * jm-macros.m4: Require it.
232 2001-09-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
234 * jm-macros.m4: Check for help2man.
236 2001-09-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
238 * host-os.m4 (UTILS_HOST_OS): New file/macro.
239 The body, by Paul Eggert, was moved here from configure.in.
240 * jm-macros.m4: Require UTILS_HOST_OS.
242 2001-09-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
244 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_XREADLINK): New macro.
247 2001-09-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
249 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_XGETCWD): Check for limits.h and
250 sys/param.h, as pathmax.h includes them.
252 2001-09-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
254 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_XGETCWD.
255 (jm_PREREQ_XGETCWD): New macro.
257 * getcwd.m4: New file.
259 2001-09-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
261 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Check for canonicalize_file_name.
264 2001-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
266 Simplify code, partly by assuming autoconf 2.52 semantics.
268 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove uintmax_t.m4.
270 * inttypes.m4 (AC_PREREQ): Bump to 2.52.
271 (jm_AC_HEADER_INTTYPES_H): Remove; now done by autoconf in 2.52.
273 (jm_AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T):
274 Move AC_REQUIRE to next-to-top level, to avoid confusion.
275 Use 2.52's AC_CHECK_TYPE instead of merely looking for the header.
276 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Don't require jm_AC_HEADER_INTTYPES_H.
277 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Likewise.
279 * uintmax_t.m4: Remove, as it duplicates inttypes.m4.
281 * xstrtoimax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOIMAX):
282 Quote first arg of AC_DEFUN.
283 Require jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T and jm_AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG
284 since they are needed to parse the include file even if we need
285 only xstrtoimax. Simplify logic behind the args to AC_REPLACE.
286 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): Likewise,
287 but with opposite signedness.
289 2001-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
291 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_EXCLUDE.

298 * xstrtoimax.m4: New file.
299 * xstrtoumax.m4: Add comments explaining why we
300 AC_REPLACE_FUNCS(strtol).
302 2001-06-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
304 * inttypes.m4: Add AC_PREREQ(2.13).
305 (jm_AC_HEADER_INTTYPES_H): Test for intmax_t, too.
306 (jm_AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T): New macro.
307 (jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T): Moved here from uintmax_t.m4.
309 * longlong.m4 (jm_AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG): New macro.
311 * longlong.m4: Renamed from ulonglong.m4.
312 * inttypes.m4: Renamed from inttypes_h.m4.
313 * uintmax_t.m4: Removed.
315 2001-08-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

326 strftime.m4, timespec.m4, unlink-busy.m4, uptime.m4, utimbuf.m4,
327 utime.m4, utimes.m4, xstrtoumax.m4:
328 Quote the first argument in each use of AC_DEFUN.
330 2001-08-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
332 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.52.
334 2001-08-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
336 The following changes are from gettext 0.10.39 as maintained by
337 Bruno Haible, except that getline.m4 continues to use AC_LIBOBJ.
339 * codeset.m4: Upgrade to serial AM1.
340 (AM_LANGINFO_CODESET): Renamed from jm_LANGINFO_CODESET;
341 all uses changed. Quote first arg of AC_DEFUN.
342 (am_cv_langinfo_codeset): Renamed from jm_cv_langinfo_codeset.
344 * iconv.m4: Upgrade to serial AM2.

361 * ulonglong.m4 (jm_AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG): Likewise.
363 * getline.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLINE): Don't bother checking for
366 * progtest.m4 (AM_PATH_PROG_WITH_TEST): If not found, print "no",
367 not the default value.
369 2001-06-25 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
370 * mbswidth.m4 (jm_PREREQ_MBSWIDTH): Don't require AM_C_PROTOTYPES.
371 Also check for mbsinit. Needed for SCO 3.2v5.0.2.
372 Also include <string.h>; this is where AIX 3.2.5 declares wcwidth.
373 Also check for iswcntrl, used for wcwidth fallback.
374 Use AC_TRY_COMPILE to emulate AC_CHECK_DECLS, for portability
377 2001-08-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
379 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Use `#include', not `@%:@include',
380 as it was in the original. Reported by Paul Eggert.
382 2001-07-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
384 * gettimeofday.m4: New file.
385 Prompted by a report from Bernhard Baehr.
387 2001-07-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
389 * Makefile.am.in (Makefile.am): Remove most of the unlocked-io.h stuff.
390 Now it's in ../Makefile.cfg.
392 2001-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
394 * Makefile.am.in (glibc-io.struct): New target. Rework the code
395 that generates jm-glibc-io.m4 so that it doesn't trigger any make
398 2001-07-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
400 The following changes were prompted by suggestions from Bruno Haible.
402 * jm-glibc-io.m4n: New file, the template from which jm-glibc-io.m4
404 * Makefile.am.in (Makefile.am): Include jm-glibc-io.m4n in emitted
405 definition of EXTRA_DIST.
406 (Makefile.am): Emit the dependency, `all-local: jm-glibc-io.m4' to
407 ensure that the generated file is created/updated whenever the list
408 of $(unlocked_functions) is changed.
409 (jm-glibc-io.m4): New rule.
410 (unlocked-io.h): New rule -- currently unused.
412 2001-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
414 * regex.m4 (jm_INCLUDED_REGEX): Use a quadrigraph to represent an
415 unmatched right bracket, rather than kludging it with an extra,
416 falsely-matching quote in a comment. Patch by Akim Demaille.
418 2001-05-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
420 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for ut_type in struct utmpx.
421 Check for ut_type in struct utmp.
423 2001-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
425 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Don't use AC_LIBOBJ(strftime),
426 now that we use the package-supplied version unconditionally.
427 (jm_FUNC_STRFTIME): Don't replace strftime, for the same reason.
429 2001-05-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
431 * regex.m4: Change a couple backticks to single quotes to avoid shell
434 2001-05-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
436 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Check for _WIN32, __WIN32__, and __MSDOS__.
438 2001-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
440 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME):
441 Don't bother to check library strftime, since
442 we'll be using our own my_strftime function anyway.
443 Define my_strftime instead of strftime.
445 2001-05-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
447 * regex.m4: Use proper quoting so brackets appear in the test program.
448 Reported by, and with help from, Bruno Haible.
450 2001-05-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
452 * jm-macros.m4 (major_t, minor_t): Define to unsigned int if undefined.

463 2001-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
465 * ftruncate.m4: Check for chsize.
466 Link with ftruncate.o unconditionally if ftruncate is missing.
467 This was required when cross-compiling to i586-mingw32msvc.
469 2001-03-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
471 * jm-macros.m4: Require autoconf-2.49d.
473 2001-03-20 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
475 * iconv.m4 (jm_ICONV): Recommend GNU libiconv.
477 2001-03-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
479 * memcmp.m4 (jm_AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Remove my copy of AC_FUNC_MEMCMP,
480 now that the version in autoconf is equivalent.
481 (jm_FUNC_MEMCMP): Adjust to use AC_FUNC_MEMCMP.
483 * error.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ERROR): Invoke AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R.
484 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
486 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_TEMPNAME.
487 (jm_PREREQ_TEMPNAME): New function.
489 2001-02-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
491 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Use mkstemp replacement if the system
492 lacks mkstemp. Compile our own tempname.c if we compile our own
493 mkstemp.c, as mkstemp relies on tempname.
495 2001-03-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
497 * dos.m4 (jm_AC_DOS): Remove extra backslashes, now that
498 AH_VERBATIM really does output its argument verbatim.
500 2001-02-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
502 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Check for sys/resource.h.
504 2001-02-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
506 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Don't check for
507 getmntent via AC_CHECK_FUNCS, since that would get a `no' and disrupt
508 further attempts by AC_FUNC_GETMNTENT to check with e.g., -lgen on
511 * mbrtowc.m4 (jm_FUNC_MBRTOWC): Adapt to use AC_CACHE_CHECK etc.,
512 rather than AC_CACHE_VAL.

529 HP-UX's 10.20 /bin/cc.
531 2001-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
533 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Restore prior use of

566 In place of that, invoke jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES.
567 (jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): New functions with the above checks.
568 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require jm_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS.
569 Alan Iwi reported a build failure on an f300-fujitsu-uxpv4.1_ES;
570 The check for ssize_t was mistakenly run before the test for unistd.h.
572 The configure-time check for stdbool.h was missing.
573 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ): Add jm_PREREQ_HASH.
574 (jm_PREREQ_HASH): New function.
576 2001-01-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

580 * ls-mntd-fs.m4 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Likewise.
582 2001-01-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
584 * rename.m4: Use temporary directories named conftestdir{,2}, not
585 foo and bar. Create conftestdir/ in the script, not in the C code.
586 Remove directories in the script, not in the C code.

595 2001-01-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@epita.fr>
597 * libintl.m4 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Define MKINSTALLDIRS by
598 expanding the value of $ac_aux_dir, as in AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN,
599 so `make install' also works in VPATH builds.
601 2001-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
603 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Include utmp.h (if available), even
604 on systems with utmpx.h. It's necessary for the declaration of utmp's
605 ut_user member. Reported by Andreas Jaeger.
607 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Include grp.h and pwd.h if available.
608 They are required for the declarations of getgrgid and getpwuid resp.

633 2000-12-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
635 * xstrtoumax.m4 (jm_AC_PREREQ_XSTRTOUMAX): If we need the replacement
636 strtoull, we may well need the replacement strtoul, too.
637 Check for declarations of strtoul and strtoull.
638 Check for strtol. Mainly as a cue to cause automake to include
639 strtol.c -- that file is included by each of strtoul.c and strtoull.c.
640 Check for limits.h -- strtol.c needs it.
642 2000-12-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
644 * off_t-format.m4 (OFF_T_PRINTF_FORMAT_STRING): New file/macro.
645 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): require it.
647 2000-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

663 2000-10-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
665 * fsusage.m4: s/AC_SHELL_IFELSE/AS_IFELSE/ to match autoconf renaming.
666 * ls-mntd-fs.m4: Likewise

690 2000-08-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
692 * check-decl.m4: Include utmp.h `#if HAVE_UTMP_H', rather than
693 `#if !HAVE_UTMPX_H'. The latter would lose on systems with neither
694 utmp.h nor utmpx.h. Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
696 2000-08-11 J. David Anglin <dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca>

729 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
730 Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT. All uses changed.
731 Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
732 and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
733 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): s/AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT/AC_MBSTATE_T/.
735 2000-07-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
737 * strerror_r.m4: Mirror the correction made in autoconf.
739 * gnu-source.m4: Output to confdefs.h directly.
740 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
742 2000-07-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
744 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Add a test to see if -lm is required
745 to link seq. If so, set SEQ_LIBM to -lm. From Bruno Haible.
747 * gnu-source.m4 (AC__GNU_SOURCE): New file/macro.
748 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require it.

756 2000-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
757 and Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
759 * mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Test for mbstate_t
760 only if the test for an object-type mbstate_t fails. This
761 prevents us from mistakenly reporting that mbstate_t is a
762 system object type after we "#define mbstate_t int" to work
765 2000-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
767 * fsusage.m4 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Use plain old `echo' instead

816 2000-06-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
818 * mbstate_t.m4: Use stdlib.h, not stdio.h. The latter is not included
819 by quotearg.c, for which we perform this test. From Bruno Haible.
821 2000-06-17 Bruno Haible <haible@clisp.cons.org>
823 * check-decl.m4 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Check for utmp.h as well.
824 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Likewise. If either <utmp.h> or
825 <utmpx.h> exists, put readutmp.o into LIBOBJS.
827 2000-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
829 * mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h to work around
830 Linux header bug when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined to 500.
832 2000-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
834 * strerror_r.m4: Revive this file -- to try out an experimental
835 version of AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R that may work even on BeOS, a system
836 for which strerror does return char*, but which lacks a conveniently
837 accessible declaration of the function. If the compile-test says
838 strerror_r doesn't work, then resort to a `run'-test that works on
839 BeOS and segfaults on DEC Unix.
841 2000-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
843 * mbstate_t.m4: New file, defining AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.

873 from autoconf, and tweak the latter to accept an optional argument.
874 * jm-macros.m4: s/AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG/, and supply
875 the optional argument, `lib'.
877 2000-06-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
879 * largefile.m4: Remove file (now that it's part of autoconf).
881 2000-06-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
883 Rewrite largefile configuration so that we don't need to run
884 getconf and don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST. [I'm leaving the use of
885 AC_CANONICAL_HOST in configure.in -- jmm]
887 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS,
888 AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
889 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
890 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
891 CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.
893 Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to compile the
894 test program without and with the macro definition.
895 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check
896 for getconf. Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling
899 2000-06-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
901 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Use []-quoted list in AC_CHECK_DECLS,
902 now that autoconf requires that.

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

968 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to
969 be 500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc
970 2.1.3 bug. This avoids a clash when files like regex.c define
973 2000-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

993 compile-time test, rather than inspecting host and OS, to
994 decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.

1013 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
1015 2000-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1017 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use the one-arg form
1018 of AC_DEFINE. Otherwise, the #ifndef in AH_VERBATIM gets clobbered.
1020 2000-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1022 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES) [_GNU_SOURCE]: Use new AH_VERBATIM
1023 to insert required #ifndef into config.h.in.
1024 Suggestion from Akim Demaille.
1026 2000-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1028 * getloadavg.m4 (AM_FUNC_GETLOADAVG): Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS, not
1029 `AC_CHECK_HEADER' to check for locale.h. Thanks to a report from
1030 Christian Krackowizer.
1032 More code moved from ../configure.in into (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES).
1033 * jm-macros.m4 (_GNU_SOURCE): Define.
1034 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Require.
1035 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Require.
1037 2000-04-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
1039 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Don't use -n32 on
1040 IRIX if the installer said otherwise.
1042 2000-04-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1044 Portability tweaks required for ultrix4.3.
1045 * check-decl.m4 [!HAVE_UTMPX_H] (headers): Include <utmp.h>.
1046 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add getutent to the list of functions.
1047 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Add utmpx.h.
1048 From John David Anglin.
1050 * strftime.m4: Back out the 2000-04-02 change.
1051 Instead of that change, simply undefine putenv in the test program.
1053 2000-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1055 * gettext.m4: Fix typo in comment.
1057 * codeset.m4 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add langinfo.h (moved here from
1058 textutils/configure.in). Suggestion from Paul Eggert.
1059 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add nl_langinfo. (also from textutils/configure.in)
1061 2000-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
1063 * strftime.m4 (jm_FUNC_GNU_STRFTIME): Set TZ environment
1064 variable in the shell rather than using putenv, which isn't
1065 portable. This avoids the configure-time inter-test dependency
1066 on the potentially-renamed putenv function.
1068 2000-03-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
1070 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Include <sys/stat.h>
1071 before checking struct stat.st_blksize, so that
1072 HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE is defined correctly.
1074 2000-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
1076 * strftime.m4 (_jm_STRFTIME_PREREQS): Check for strftime,
1077 since strftime.c uses HAVE_STRFTIME to decide whether to use
1078 the underlying strftime.
1080 2000-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1082 * lib-check.m4: Look for getspnam in -lgen, too.

1087 * codeset.m4: New file.
1088 * iconv.m4: New file.
1089 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Call jm_LANGINFO_CODESET and jm_ICONV.
1091 2000-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1093 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_C_VOLATILE,
1094 for lib/localcharset.c.
1096 2000-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

1100 2000-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1102 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME before the cache check so
1103 the messages come out on separate lines.
1105 * jm-glibc-io.m4 (jm_FUNC_GLIBC_UNLOCKED_IO): Use AC_CHECK_DECLS,
1106 rather than jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS.
1107 * decl.m4: Remove now-unused file.
1109 * check-decl.m4 (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Add getlogin, ttyname, and geteuid.
1111 2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1113 * check-decl.m4: Add getenv to the list.
1115 2000-02-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1117 * check-decl.m4: Now that we have the new AC_CHECK_DECLS, use it
1118 in place of my hack.
1120 2000-02-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1122 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Rename replacement function from
1123 gnu_nanosleep to rpl_nanosleep.
1125 2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1127 * lib-check.m4 (jm_LIB_CHECK): Fix typo: check for sp_pwdp in
1128 struct spwd, rather than in struct passwd. Reported by Gaël Quéri.
1130 2000-02-08 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
1132 * largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS): Quote square brackets with

1144 2000-02-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1146 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require most macros.
1147 Remove explicit use of AC_HEADER_TIME. It is required by
1148 jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC. Using AC_HEADER_TIME and
1149 `AC_REQUIRE'ing jm_CHECK_TYPE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC provoked a but
1150 in autoconf whereby the expansion of the latter ended up preceding
1151 the expansion of its prerequisite, AC_HEADER_TIME.
1152 Reported by Volker Borchert.
1154 2000-02-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1156 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_READUTMP): Check for utmpxname.
1158 2000-02-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1160 * prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_ADDEXT): Fix typo that resulted in no
1161 definition of HAVE_PATHCONF: s/AC_CHECK_FUNC/AC_CHECK_FUNCS/.
1162 Reported by Eli Zaretskii.
1164 2000-01-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1166 * check-decl.m4 (jm_CHECK_DECLS): Add nanosleep to the list of
1167 functions. Add the time.h and sys/time.h headers along with the
1168 AC_REQUIRE'ment of AC_HEADER_TIME.
1170 2000-01-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1172 * lib-check.m4: Clean up some kludgy old shadow password tests.
1174 * prereq.m4 (utmp_includes): Define.
1175 Check for ut_user and ut_name members in both struct utmpx
1178 2000-01-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1180 * lib-check.m4: New file containing library-related checks from
1181 fileutils and sh-utils (textutils had none).
1183 2000-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1185 * perl.m4: Change format of warning message to look more like that
1186 from the missing script. Suggestion from François Pinard.
1188 2000-01-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1190 * timespec.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME, and include sys/time.h as well
1191 as time.h in the compile check.
1192 * nanosleep.m4: Require AC_HEADER_TIME rather than simply using it.
1193 Fix typo in cross-compiling case: s/yes/no/.
1195 2000-01-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1197 * jm-macros.m4: Move df-related tests here from fileutils/configure.in

1200 (jm_LIST_MOUNTED_FILESYSTEMS): Take two parameters.
1202 * fsusage.m4: New file. Extracted from fileutils/configure.in.
1203 s/space/ac_fsusage_space/.
1204 (jm_FILE_SYSTEM_USAGE): Take two parameters.
1206 * ftruncate.m4: New file (derived from part of fileutils/configure.in).
1207 * jm-macros.m4 (jm_FUNC_FTRUNCATE): AC_REQUIRE it.
1208 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Require AC_HEADER_MAJOR and AC_HEADER_DIRENT.
1210 * jm-macros.m4 (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS, OPTIONAL_BIN_ZCRIPTS, MAN):
1211 AC_SUBST these here, rather than just in sh-util/configure.in, so
1212 that the now-shared-by-fileutils-and-textutils lib/Makefile.am are
1214 (AM_FUNC_OBSTACK): Add (from fileutils/configure.in).
1215 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Merge all checks from fileutils, textutils, sh-utils.

1233 from fileutils' configure.in.
1235 * decl.m4: Remove kludgy `test -z $ac_...AC_CHECK_HEADERS(...)' code.
1236 Moved tests into their own function (_jm_DECL_HEADERS) in check-decl.m4.
1238 * check-decl.m4: Use #if rather than #ifdef.
1239 Add HAVE_DECL_STRTOUL and HAVE_DECL_STRTOULL.
1240 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Add strtoul strtoull.
1241 (_jm_DECL_HEADERS): Define new function.
1242 (jm_CHECK_DECLARATIONS): Require it.

1246 * nanosleep.m4 (jm_FUNC_NANOSLEEP): Include <sys/time.h>, too.
1247 Use AC_HEADER_TIME. Volker Borchert reported that OpenBSD-2.3/sparc
1248 defines `struct timespec' in <sys/time.h>
1250 * c-bs-a.m4: Remove uses of changequote altogether.
1251 Thanks to Akim for explaining.

1260 2000-01-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1262 * c-bs-a.m4: Use `changequote(<<,>>)', rather than `changequote(, )'
1263 because the latter didn't work.
1265 2000-01-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
1267 * jm-macros.m4 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add gethostname and getusershell.

1393 version of autoconf.
1394 * mktime.m4: Likewise.
1396 * check-type.m4: Remove file, now that the latest version of
1397 AC_CHECK_TYPE takes a third arg to specify additional #includes.
1399 * ssize_t.m4: New file, requires experimental version of autoconf.

1436 * jm-macros.m4: Move a 4-line block of code from the configure.in of

1454 lfs.m4, except that all names with prefix AC_LFS have been
1455 changed to use the prefix AC_SYS_LARGEFILE instead, to be
1456 compatible with future autoconf versions. Also, some minor m4
1457 quoting problems have been fixed.

1461 * ulonglong.m4 (jm_AC_TYPE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG): Make sure
1462 that we can shift, multiply and divide unsigned long long

1515 1999-05-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
