Hi, There was a change today in gnulib, that requires a small change in packages that use gnulib-tool --with-tests with --makefile-name. GNU coreutils is one such package.
Currently, './bootstrap' fails like this: ... autoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy --force-missing gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk:47: error: AM_CFLAGS must be set with '=' before using '+=' gnulib-tests/Makefile.am:1: 'gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk' included from here gnulib-tests/Makefile.am:3: warning: AM_CFLAGS multiply defined in condition TRUE ... gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk:47: ... 'AM_CFLAGS' previously defined here gnulib-tests/Makefile.am:1: 'gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk' included from here autoreconf: error: automake failed with exit status: 1 ./bootstrap: autoreconf failed The attached proposed patch fixes it.
