And, that fool Sun one, too. =) I haven't consistently seen the problem that forced Subversion to require libtool 1.4.3 on Solaris, but I have seen it before. (Which is claimed to be fixed by using /usr/xpg4/bin/sed rather than /usr/bin/sed.) Therefore, at a minimum, libtool 1.4.3 should be the requirement for any ASF httpd-2.x releases.Isn't 1.4.3 needed for MacOS compatibility, and maybe one of those fool IBM operating systems?
Note that I don't think it is pressing that Sander should re-roll with 1.4.3, but it might not also be a bad idea, either.
Yeah, I'd prefer we enforce that the RM have the latest tool sets not for all developers. We shouldn't *require* autoconf-2.5x on the RM machine, but libtool-1.4.3+ is one that I think we need. -- justinIf we don't want all developers to be subject to that requirement, then we make make the distribution script (the tarball roller) enforce the stronger check. (in Subversion, the build check looks for autoconf 2.5x and libtool 1.4.x, but the dist.sh script enforces libtool 1.4.3)
