2009-01-21m4: don't use AC_REQUIRE([AC_C_BIGENDIAN])Jim Meyering
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Use AC_REQUIRE([gl_BIGENDIAN]) instead. This avoids a subtle problem recently documented in autoconf: http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=commitdiff;h=34e2c8d5484
2009-01-01improve M4 quotingJim Meyering

(gl_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Likewise. * m4/lib-check.m4 (cu_LIB_CHECK): Likewise. * m4/stat-prog.m4 (cu_PREREQ_STAT_PROG): Likewise. FYI, I first ran this command: git ls-files | grep -E '\.(m4|ac)$' | xargs perl -pi \ -e 's/(AC_[A-Z_]+\()([^[()]+?)([,)])/$1\[$2]$3/g;' \ -e 's/(AC_[A-Z_]+\(\[[^,]+?\], )([^,[()]+?)([,)])/$1\[$2]$3/g;' \ -e 's/(AC_[A-Z_]+\((?:\[[^,]+?\], ){2})([^,[()]+?)([,)])/$1\[$2]$3/g' Then I updated serial numbers and copyright dates manually. Also, I manually added two pairs of quotes in boottime.m4.
2009-01-01maint: tighten m4 AC_ quoting checkJim Meyering
* maint.mk (sc_m4_quote_check): Renamed from m4-check. Also search for AC_DEFINE and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED. Also search in configure.ac. * configure.ac: Quote first argument of AC_DEFINE. * jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Quote the first argument to AC_DEFINE.

2008-06-15address root cause of compilation failures:Jim Meyering
The affected code wasn't even being compiled on my system, because HAVE_NL_LANGINFO was not defined. On other systems, where vasnprintf.m4 determines it needs %A or %a replacement support, it _would_ check for nl_langinfo, and expose the compilation failure. * m4/jm-macros.m4: Check for nl_langinfo, required by sort.c.
2008-06-13od: simplify long double supportEric Blake
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (gl_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Remove obsolete check for AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE. * src/od.c (LONG_DOUBLE): Delete. (width_bytes, MAX_FP_TYPE_SIZE, decode_one_format, main): Just use 'long double' directly. (print_long_double): No longer protect by HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE.
2008-06-02accommodate older SELinux which lacks matchpathcon_init_prefixJim Meyering
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Check for matchpathcon_init_prefix. * src/install.c [!HAVE_MATCHPATHCON_INIT_PREFIX] (matchpathcon_init_prefix): Define away. * gl/lib/se-selinux.in.h (matchpathcon_init_prefix): Define. Reported by Ilya N. Golubev in <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13686>.
2008-03-02Create sha256 and sha512 modules and move files into gl/.Jim Meyering

2007-12-20Use comma-separated list in ./configure --help output.Jim Meyering
* configure.ac: Map commas to spaces in excluded-program list. Use a comma-separated list, not a space-separated one. * m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG): Expect list of program names to be comma-separated. Reported by Jan Bauke Douma.
2007-11-15* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Fix syntax error.Andreas Schwab

2007-11-05Don't use GNU-sed-specific \< \> operators here, either.Jim Meyering
* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Use a loop, as below.
2007-10-07Convert coreutils' rand*.{c,h,m4} into modules.Jim Meyering
First step: move these files to gl/lib: * lib/rand-isaac.c, lib/rand-isaac.h * lib/randint.c, lib/randint.h * lib/randperm.c, lib/randperm.h * lib/randread.c, lib/randread.h Step 2: add modules/rand* and remove now-unneeded .m4 files. * gl/modules/randint: New file. * gl/modules/randperm: New file. * gl/modules/randread: New file. * m4/randint.m4: Remove file. * m4/randperm.m4: Remove file. * m4/randread.m4: Remove file. Step 3: use the new modules * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add randint and randperm. * m4/prereq.m4 (gl_RANDINT, gl_RANDREAD, gl_RANDPERM): Don't require; These have been removed. (gl_ROOT_DEV_INO): Don't require; already handled via bootstrap.conf.
2007-08-30Use PACKAGE_NAME instead of GNU_PACKAGE.Eric Blake
* src/Makefile.am (.sh, uninstall-local): Adjust all users of hand-rolled GNU_PACKAGE to instead use autoconf-provided PACKAGE_NAME. * src/basename.c (main): Likewise. * src/chroot.c (main): Likewise. * src/dirname.c (main): Likewise. * src/echo.c (main): Likewise. * src/expr.c (main): Likewise. * src/factor.c (main): Likewise. * src/groups.sh (version): Likewise.

2007-07-23Update all copyright notices to use the newer form.Jim Meyering
2007-07-14Change interface: make 2nd param _space_-separated, not comma-separatedJim Meyering
* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG): Remove now- unnecessary use of tr. Improve comments. * configure.ac: Adjust caller, as well as the code that ensures the 2nd parameter stays in sync with the list in src/Makefile.am.
2007-07-14* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Fix typo: s/$2/$1/.Karel Zak
(gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG): Quote first use of $2 parameter. Don't mix comma- and space-separated lists. Patch from Karel Zak.
2007-07-12Expand default-no-install prog list in ./configure --help output,Jim Meyering
and fix some []-quoting bugs in sed expressions. * configure.ac: Hard-code the list, "arch,su" here as well as in src/Makefile.am, and ensure the two stay in sync. * m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG): Use $2, rather than the nearly-equivalent shell variable. Karel Zak reported that ./configure --help's output included the literal string, $gl_no_install_progs_default.
2007-07-12Clean up include-exclude-prog.m4.Jim Meyering
* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4 (gl_ADD_PROG): Don't modify MAN. (gl_REMOVE_PROG): Likewise. Add omitted "\>" in sed regexp. Remove any leading or trailing spaces. (gl_ADD_PROG): Remove any leading space. * configure.ac: Instead, derive $MAN from $optional_bin_progs. Append $(EXEEXT) to *all* names, not just the first one.
2007-07-10Add support for enabling/disabling installation of specified programs.Jim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention new configure-time options. Mention that neither arch nor su is built/installed, by default. * m4/include-exclude-prog.m4: New file. * configure.ac: Use new macro, gl_ADD_PROG, rather than manually appending to OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS and MAN. Move the code that adds "df" to the list of programs to build from m4/jm-macros into this file. Use gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG, then handle special cases: ginstall, [. (NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): AC_SUBST it. Used by man/Makefile.am. * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Remove from this list all man pages corresponding to "bin" programs. Add $(MAN) instead. (optional_mans): Remove all uses. (check-x-vs-1): Adapt to work even though arch and su are typically no longer built (and neither are their .1 files). * src/Makefile.am (install_su): Rename from INSTALL_SU, now that INSTALL_SU has a different meaning. Use the new $(INSTALL_SU) value.
2007-07-10Change "version 2" to "version 3" in all copyright notices.Jim Meyering
2007-07-06setuidgid: set all groups, not just the primary one; mgetgroups: new moduleJim Meyering
I wanted to use the xgetgroups function from id.c, so factored it out and made it into a non-exiting function (hence the "m" prefix rather than "x"). * src/setuidgid.c (main): Use mgetgroups. Include "mgetgroups.h". * src/id.c (xgetgroups): Remove function. Include "mgetgroups.h". (print_group_list): Use mgetgroups, not xgetgroups. * gl/modules/mgetgroups: New module. * gl/lib/mgetgroups.c: New file. mgetgroups is derived from id.c's xgetgroups function. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add mgetgroups. * gl/m4/mgetgroups.m4: New file. * gl/lib/mgetgroups.h: New file.
2007-07-04Add Paul's ChangeLog for previous patch.Jim Meyering
Restore the m4/.gitignore file I inadvertently removed.
2007-07-04pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank header linesPaul Eggert
Here's a patch along the lines of <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/10849/focus=10857>. It's a bit large since it changes the test cases to match the behavior, and the test cases' file names depend on the behavior! * NEWS: pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank lines in the header. * doc/coreutils.texi (pr invocation): Likewise. Also, a too-short page length implies -t, not -T. * src/pr.c (lines_per_header, lines_per_footer): Now constants. (init_parameters): Don't try to change them. (print_header): Use the same header and footer format regardless of wither form feeds are being used. (usage): Adjust to above change when describing too-short page length. Too-short page length impliesy -t, not -T. * tests/pr/2-S_f-t_notab: Adjust to the fact that -F now affects only formfeed handling; it does not change the header. * tests/pr/2-Sf-t_notab: Likewise. ... * tests/pr/3-5l17f-t: Remove, since it's been renamed to another file whose name has a line count 7 larger, reflecting the new line count needed for this behavior. * tests/pr/3a3l8f-t: Likewise. ... * tests/pr/w72l24f-ll: Likewise.
