Hello Dear All |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
This patch is aimed to fix incorrect automake version detection, |
| 4 |
in case when environment variable WANT_AUTOMAKE is not specified and |
| 5 |
when files Makefile.in |
| 6 |
and aclocal.m4 do not exit. It is a common situation when aclocal is |
| 7 |
executed for the first time. |
| 8 |
Automake documentation suggests a method how a project can specify its |
| 9 |
version requirements: |
| 10 |
a macro AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([options]) should be placed in configure.in or |
| 11 |
configure.ac. |
| 12 |
For example: |
| 13 |
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.8 gnu]) |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
After applying our patch gentoo aclocal wrapper would first search |
| 16 |
automake version requirements |
| 17 |
in envvar WANT_AUTOMAKE, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4 and then in |
| 18 |
configure.in or configure.ac. |
