Re: [PATCH] Provide modern Autoconf initialization

[Thomas Schwinge]

Hi!

In GNU Mach, we have a version.m4 where these fields are defined one and
for all.  (I argue that a package's version definition does not really
belong into a generic, otherwise version-agnostic configuration system's
file.)  (But on the other hand, *version*.m4 is likely not the most
suitable name for defining a package's name.)  (Are we bike-shedding
yet?)


Should/could we also get rid of libhurdbugaddr?  (Separate patch?)  I
never quite understood its purpose.

Yes, that too...
