Subject: CI scallywag setup/cygport/autoconf missing autoconf-archive pkg
Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2021 22:15:53 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9b1ea563-f5c0-04f2-d117-6f792b6cdb94@SystematicSw.ab.ca> (raw)
Hi folks,
Autotools needs m4 macros in autoreconf-archive to config for gcov and
other dependencies or build fails with e.g.
"configure.ac:33: error: possibly undefined macro: AX_CODE_COVERAGE
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation."
CI scallywag setup does not install nor does cygport nor autoconf
require autoconf-archive so packages have to include in BUILD_REQUIRES.
As autoconf requires: autoconf2.1 autoconf2.5 bash sed, I believe that
would be the more appropriate place for an autoconf-archive requirement,
otherwise cygport would have to require it, which is not so obvious.
