bug#13514: [PATCH 1/2] aclocal: just warn if the primary local m4 dir doesn't exist (no error)

2013-02-11 Thread Pavel Raiskup
Related to automake bug#13514. Every bootstrapping process which does not need to have the local macro directory existing in version control system (because it does not have any user-defined macros) would fail during 'autoreconf -vfi' phase if the AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4]) is specified (to force

bug#13514: [PATCH 2/2] aclocal: fix for more-than-once specified directories

2013-02-11 Thread Pavel Raiskup
Related to automake bug#13514. Do not explore these directories multiple times in 'aclocal'. This causes problems on older packages that specify configure.ac: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4]) Makefile.am: ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4 when the m4 directory does not exist. See:

Yes, but not if they don't want (or don't necessarily need) to switch macros into different directory than 'm4'? There might be a misunderstanding here (either from your part, or in my understanding of what you are saying). Are you aware that none of the autotools use *any* local m4

Hey I'm porting a lib to a non recursive make build system. I have a single top level Makefile.am which has: AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = subdir-objects include src/lib/css/Makefile.mk In that Makefile.mk, yacc is called and generates the file src_lib_css_libecss_la-ecss_grammar.h from ecss_grammar.y
