Dear List,
the attached patches can also be found athttp://www.brenda-arkle.demon.co.uk/patches/tripwire/ (a) gcc -pedantic -Wall gags (correctly) on many unwanted semicolons which have been put after function-type macro invocations. tripwire-2.4.0.1-bl12_gcc4-1.patch(b) Even after cleaning up the sources, it still won't build if builddir != srcdir.
Inspection showed that the $(top_builddir)/{bin,lib} directories were
expected to be present already, but aren't (assuming a clean directory
initially).
After some threshing around, I decided that 'configure'/'config.status'
was the best place to create them, so I did a little hacking on
config.in .
This is most graceless, and I suspect I'm missing a better way to do
it.
There is some mysterious tat in the old Makefiles which tests whether
the target directory exists and simply stops if it doesn't. Feel free
to
put this behaviour back if it has a use of some sort.
tripwire-2.4.0.1-sepbuild-1.patch
(c) As I discovered while working on the previous patch, the autotools
automagical actions require automake-1.8 . I can move up to
automake-1.9.6, after running aclocal. Fine - but now several of
the Makefiles end up with duplicate 'all:' targets, and make gags.
Ho-hum... inspection revealed that the all: targets are really a
mistake anyway. What's wanted is an all-local target instead.
The modifications for this are in
tripwire-2.4.0.1-automake-1.patch
It all works for me now with
aclocal/automake from the automake-1.9.6 package.
My autoconf is 2.60
My m4 is from the GNU coreutils, version 5.97
I hope this is useful to SOMEONE, I've
spent enough time on it...
