The use of autotools in pacman is interesting... We commit most autotools generated files, but not configure or Makefile. One reason for this is that we needed to patch ltmain.sh to properly handle -Wl,-as-needed, because the Arch package maintainer refused to do so unless upstream accepts! Libtool upstream have known about the bug since at least 2006, so that does not look hopeful. The new approach is to have autogen.sh call autoreconf and then have it patch the ltmain.sh file. This removes a lot of crap that should be autogenerated from our git repo: 38 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 28256 deletions(-) Allan McRae (5): Remove autotools files Update gitignore files for use with autoreconf Use autoreconf in autogen.sh Patch ltmain on autoreconf Remove autotools files with autoclean.sh .gitignore | 1 + autoclean.sh | 18 +- autogen.sh | 6 +- build-aux/.gitignore | 2 + build-aux/compile | 347 -- build-aux/config.guess | 1558 ------- build-aux/config.rpath | 614 --- build-aux/config.sub | 1788 -------- build-aux/depcomp | 791 ---- build-aux/install-sh | 527 --- build-aux/ltmain-asneeded.patch | 33 + build-aux/ltmain.sh | 9672 --------------------------------------- build-aux/missing | 215 - build-aux/mkinstalldirs | 162 - configure.ac | 2 +- lib/libalpm/po/.gitignore | 10 +- lib/libalpm/po/Makefile.in.in | 444 -- m4/.gitignore | 2 + m4/gettext.m4 | 383 -- m4/gpgme.m4 | 307 -- m4/iconv.m4 | 214 - m4/intlmacosx.m4 | 51 - m4/lib-ld.m4 | 110 - m4/lib-link.m4 | 774 ---- m4/lib-prefix.m4 | 224 - m4/libtool.m4 | 7831 ------------------------------- m4/ltoptions.m4 | 369 -- m4/ltsugar.m4 | 123 - m4/ltversion.m4 | 23 - m4/lt~obsolete.m4 | 98 - m4/nls.m4 | 32 - m4/pkg.m4 | 159 - m4/po.m4 | 449 -- m4/progtest.m4 | 92 - scripts/po/.gitignore | 10 +- scripts/po/Makefile.in.in | 444 -- src/pacman/po/.gitignore | 10 +- src/pacman/po/Makefile.in.in | 444 -- 38 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 28256 deletions(-) create mode 100644 build-aux/.gitignore delete mode 100755 build-aux/compile delete mode 100755 build-aux/config.guess delete mode 100755 build-aux/config.rpath delete mode 100755 build-aux/config.sub delete mode 100755 build-aux/depcomp delete mode 100755 build-aux/install-sh create mode 100644 build-aux/ltmain-asneeded.patch delete mode 100644 build-aux/ltmain.sh delete mode 100755 build-aux/missing delete mode 100755 build-aux/mkinstalldirs delete mode 100644 lib/libalpm/po/Makefile.in.in create mode 100644 m4/.gitignore delete mode 100644 m4/gettext.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/gpgme.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/iconv.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/intlmacosx.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/lib-ld.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/lib-link.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/lib-prefix.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/libtool.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/ltoptions.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/ltsugar.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/ltversion.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/lt~obsolete.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/nls.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/pkg.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/po.m4 delete mode 100644 m4/progtest.m4 delete mode 100644 scripts/po/Makefile.in.in delete mode 100644 src/pacman/po/Makefile.in.in -- 1.8.3.1
