I was searching for a solution to my problem when I encountered your post.
Why do I see a different log through your post rather than the normal link? http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=m4.git;a=shortlog shows the latest date 9/22/13 http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=m4.git;a=shortlog;h=cf5cbd26d6134540c66e7a68f4de36471fe9c995 latest is 1/1/14 My original problem is regarding bootstrapping. The "latest" m4 commit c09a187c50f2f74e89d4d0991bdbd2c6846cc707 bootstrap result: success with Debian's native version "m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.16" fail with a newly built m4 version "m4 (GNU M4) 1.9a.643-c09a1-dirty": ***** $ ./bootstrap --skip-po -v bootstrap: found 'configure.ac' bootstrap: export M4='m4' bootstrap: found 'Makefile.am' bootstrap: ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS='-I build-aux/m4' bootstrap: macro_dir='build-aux/m4' bootstrap: vc_ignore_files='.gitignore' bootstrap: export LIBTOOLIZE='true' bootstrap: export AUTOPOINT='true' bootstrap: found 'build-aux/m4/gnulib-cache.m4' bootstrap: export PATCH='patch' bootstrap: found 'help2man' version 1.43.3. bootstrap: found 'makeinfo' version 5.2. bootstrap: found '/cross-tools/bin/xz' for XZ. bootstrap: error: please set 'build_aux' in 'bootstrap.conf' bootstrap: or add the following (or similar) to your 'configure.ac': bootstrap: AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([name of a directory for build scripts]) ***** You'll note that it asks me to set "build_aux".... oh my, I just realized something and tested it. Previously, I thought it was referring to "AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([build-aux])" in "configure.ac", but looked at "bootstrap" and saw "build_aux=" @2328. It said it would pull it from "AC_INIT", but I could override it there, which I just did and it got past that. So now when it mentions AC_INIT. I had originally thought it could be a problem but wasn't sure how to deal with it: ***** m4_bmatch(m4_defn([M4_VERSION]), [^[0-9]], [], [m4_define([M4_VERSION], [1.9a])]) AC_INIT([GNU M4], m4_defn([M4_VERSION]), address@hidden) ***** I see the "1.9a" which correlates with the dirty version that gets built so I think something is going on there. |
