Hello,
>>
So lately I've been using elogv for a convenience way to ensure no
issues with the most recent packages installed or upgraded. It's a neat
little tool. Today I found this:
dev-lang/php-5.6.10 - 07/10/2015 {in purple}
snipped::>
"This package has a configure.in file which has long been deprecated. Pleas
│update it to use configure.ac instead as newer versions of autotools will
die when it finds this file. See https://bugs.gentoo.org/426262 for details."
OK, so I looked the bug. From what I read :
> If we start now, to rename configure.in to configure.ac before eautoreconf
> we will avoid lots of breakages due to the deprecation of .in in
> automake-1.13.
Makes sense; but I cannot find the file. I get lots of hits for a
"configure.in" in my code trees, but little on the rest of the system; here
are the few:
/usr/portage/dev-lang/lua/files/configure.in
/usr/share/cppunit/examples/money/configure.in
(and quit a few on firefox.
# equery depends =sys-devel/autoconf-2.13
* These packages depend on sys-devel/autoconf-2.13:
app-admin/tripwire-2.4.2.2-r3 (sys-devel/autoconf)
app-editors/vim-7.4.273 (sys-devel/autoconf)
app-editors/vim-core-7.4.273 (sys-devel/autoconf)
mail-client/thunderbird-31.7.0 (=sys-devel/autoconf-2.1*)
net-libs/libnet-1.1.6 (sys-devel/autoconf)
net-misc/openssh-6.7_p1 (sys-devel/autoconf)
sys-apps/attr-2.4.47-r1 (sys-devel/autoconf)
www-client/firefox-31.7.0 (=sys-devel/autoconf-2.1*)
www-client/seamonkey-2.33.1-r1 (=sys-devel/autoconf-2.1*)
Huh? really? I have versions 2.13 and 2.69 of sys-devel/autoconf installed
So, I'm kinda head scratching to decide what, if anything to fix?
There much that I did not post, but they are all dead ends like:
"For more details on how minor version slotting works (PHP_TARGETS) please
read the upgrade guide: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/php/php-upgrading.xml "
from the elogview of the latest php install. That link is dead.
Any suggestions? Is elogv borked in this case?
/var/tmp/portage/php-5.6.10/work/php-5.1.6/config.log does not even exist....
# eselect php list cli
[1] php5.6 *
Bottom line is I have not use php directly in some time, so it is quite
easy that I missed some info from the devs on php changes..... I did not
see anything in the news system nor pgo.
