I agree on principle. That's why I wouldn't even consider submitting this to upstream, as future versions should handle this correctly. I think it's ok for us to patch the current version this way, as the warnings are about the future only. > may be fix the code itself to not > generate the warning at all ? That's something that (upstream) must do anyway before automake-2.0 comes out and turns these warnings in to errors. I'm not going to figure these out for every upstream that has such a problem. When we were preparing for automake-1.13, I submitted fixes to nearly 100 upstreams. While I usually am happy to fix the problems I encounter, I'm not ready to make anything like that again. I'll leave proper fixes for these problems for upstreams to make. - ML _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
