[pacman-dev] [PATCH 00/11] autofool cleanup

[Dave Reisner]

I've been working on sorting out some crappiness in our build system, in part
evidenced by an Ubuntu user attempting to compile pacman. This sort of
snowballed and I took the liberty of cleaning up a few other things as well.
Basically, the changes fall into a few categories:

* use pkg-config for more accurate library detection
* avoid touching LDFLAGS, CFLAGS, and CPPFLAGS
* move files out of the repo root

The last patch is none of the above, but it's good juju anyways.

I definitely won't call myself an autotools guru and will point out that what
I've done here is based on what I've gleaned from some other autotools-based
projects. That said, I think these changes all make sense, and the Ubuntu user
was certainly happy that the configure script was doing a better job of
library autodetection.

Dave Reisner (11):
  buildsys: add pkg-config m4 macros
  buildsys: use pkg-config for openssl detection
  buildsys: use pkg-config for libarchive detection
  buildsys: use pkg-config for libcurl detection
  buildsys: handle gpgme libs and cflags separately
  buildsys: use AC_DEFINE for CYGWIN macro
  buildsys: define warning CFLAGS in separate var
  buildsys: cleanup libtool and autoconf initialization
  buildsys: move acinclude.m4 to m4/
  buildsys: move autotools bloat to build-aux
  autoclean.sh: abide by POSIX shebang
