2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-12-17build: merge in bootstrap changes from gnulibJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Pull in the combination of gnulib's "bootstrap: detect tools required by gnulib-tool" patch and the related fix.
2011-11-24maint: bootstrap: run autopoint and libtoolize *before* gnulib-toolJim Meyering
* bootstrap (AUTOPOINT, AUTORECONF): Factor out definitions. Run autopoint and libtoolize *before* gnulib-tool. After it, run an abbreviated autoreconf, rather than a loop around all tools. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_tool_option_extras): Add both --symlink and --makefile-name=gnulib.mk. Remove stray use of $bt. * lib/Makefile.am: Initialize all of the following so that generated code in gnulib.mk may use += to append to those variables: AM_CFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS, BUILT_SOURCES, CLEANFILES, EXTRA_DIST, MAINTAINERCLEANFILES, MOSTLYCLEANDIRS, MOSTLYCLEANFILES, SUFFIXES, noinst_LIBRARIES.
2011-11-24maint: bootstrap: remove some now-unneeded codeJim Meyering
This bootstrap script arose back when gnulib-tool was young. Since then, it has seen improvements that render much of this script unnecessary. In particular, it can now make symlinks to the files it uses. Also, I no longer see as much value in marking files as read-only via comments. * bootstrap (slirp, bt_mark_as_generated): Remove.
2011-10-06build: let bootstrap resort to wget for downloading .po filesBernhard Voelker
* bootstrap (download_po_files): Fallback to wget when downloading the .po files via rsync failed. This is necessary to bootstrap behind a strict firewall.
2011-08-11bootstrap: use latest gnulib bootstrap, gettextPaul Eggert
* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib. This removes an obsolescent gettext.m4 patch, along with some other changes that do not seem to affect coreutils. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use gettext, not gettext-h. Current gnulib gettext seems to work without needing special hacking. * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Now 0.18.1, not 0.17. * gnulib: Update to latest.
2011-05-03build: avoid bootstrap failure when $GZIP is setJim Meyering
Running "GZIP=-9 ./bootstrap" would fail right away, because the tool-version-checking code would treat the upper-cased program name as an environment variable name and if that has a value use the result as the application name. That works fine for automake, autoconf, etc. but not for gzip. * bootstrap (check_versions): Do not treat $GZIP as a program name. If defined at all, it is supposed to list gzip options. Reported by Alan Curry in http://debbugs.gnu.org/8609
2011-03-13touch: update to latest gnulib to fix Solaris 10 touch segfaultJim Meyering
* gnulib: Update to latest, to address http://debbugs.gnu.org/8230. When built on Solaris 9 and run on Solaris 10, touch would segfault. Reported by Ben Walton. * bootstrap: Update from gnulib. * tests/init.sh: Likewise. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering

Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-11-30bootstrap: fix handling of various perl --version formatsPádraig Brady
* bootstrap (get_version): Don't use perl's $] special variable, as that requires updating all bootstrap.conf files to use perl's x.yyyzzz version format. Instead make the regular expression more general to support version formats from older perl-5.005_002 (5.5.2) and perl-5.11 which has other numbers in the version line.
2009-11-29bootstrap: update from gnulib, for perl-5.11.x supportJim Meyering
* bootstrap (get_version): Handle perl separately, since perl-5.11's --version output is different.
2009-11-12build: bootstrap: add a comment; generalize autoheader checkJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib and diff.
2009-11-11bootstrap: use git_modules_config in one more placeJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Make bootstrap's --gnulib-srcdir more useful (for testing).
2009-09-26maint: factor coreutils-specific code out of bootstrapJim Meyering
* bootstrap (bootstrap_epilogue): Define a default, empty function. Remove coreutils-specific code, and instead, invoke this new function at the end of this script. * bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Define, to override the default.

2009-03-31build: set automake's silent-rules option via configure.acJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Revert commit 9f39fa855, 2009-03-28, "build: use automake's --silent-rules option when possible". * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Instead, set it here. Require the just-released version of automake: 1.10b.
2009-03-28build: use automake's --silent-rules option when possibleJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Use automake's --silent-rules option.
2009-03-07build: allow ./bootstrap --srcdir=... to work with a git submoduleJim Meyering
* bootstrap (git_modules_config): Use GIT_CONFIG, not GIT_CONFIG_LOCAL. The latter was removed in v1.5.6.1-109-gdc87183.
2009-01-01bootstrap: don't use cmp's -s option when reading from a pipeJim Meyering
GNU cmp exits without reading all input when given the -s option, and that can cause termination of the writing process via SIGPIPE. Instead, when reading from a pipe, just redirect output to /dev/null so that all input is read.
2008-12-13more portable bootstrap procedureRalf Wildenhues
* bootstrap (get_version): Fix portability issues in sed script. (check_versions): For buildreq apps, honor the corresponding $APP variable like $AMTAR, $AUTOCONF. (usage): Document this. (update_po_files): Honor $SHA1SUM. (main): Honor $AUTOPOINT, $ACLOCAL, $AUTOCONF, $AUTOHEADER, $AUTOMAKE, $LIBTOOLIZE.
2008-10-22Add better checks and docs for build toolsPádraig Brady
Prompted by a report from Ed Avis: <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14710> * README-hacking: Organise LZMA and Valgrind as as optional requirements rather than in their own sections. Mention bootstrap will now check tool versions. * README-prereq: Make a start on specific instructions for optaining build tools. Currently we just have notes for Fedora linux. * bootstrap.conf: Add the list of tools and versions required. * bootstrap: Add the logic to check for the required tools, and list all required tools and versions if any are missing.
