Bugzilla Bug 160179

The following ebuilds/eclasses are using the almost deprecated gnuconfig_update
function from gnuconfig.eclass:

./dev-db/mysql++/mysql++-1.7.26.ebuild: gnuconfig_update
./dev-db/mysql++/mysql++-1.7.34.ebuild: gnuconfig_update
./dev-db/mysql++/mysql++-2.0.4.ebuild:  gnuconfig_update
./dev-db/mysql++/mysql++-2.1.1.ebuild:  gnuconfig_update
./dev-db/mysql++/mysql++-2.1.1-r2.ebuild:       gnuconfig_update

This might be due by various reasons, and some of them cannot be worked around
at the current time, so please find your case in the following list:

* the ebuild does not use econf, but ./configure, because it uses a very old
version of autoconf that does not support the parameters we pass; [1]
* the software use config.{guess,sub} although not using autotools, thus econf
cannot be used; [1]
* the ebuild uses ./configure just for fun; [2]
* the ebuild uses ../configure or variants thereof to run a different configure
script than the one in the current directory; [3]
* the ebuild uses an autogen script or some other autotools-rebuilding script
that calls ./configure; [4]
* the ebuild calls ./configure because it's doing an inline-build of another
package. [1]

Then see the procedure to handle this bug:

[1] You cannot drop gnuconfig_update, so please leave the bug open, but set the
status whiteboard to "Waiting autoepatch".
[2] Fix the ebuild, use econf!
[3] econf accepts a ECONF_SOURCE variable to tell it to run the configure found
in another directory; to run ../configure just use ECONF_SOURCE=".." econf.
[4] Fix your autotools with http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/autofailure.xml
adnd then use econf.

Once you're using econf, it will take care of updating gnuconfig by itself.

Thanks from Diego and Mike

This bug is already fixed in 2.2.2. Close?

There is no call to gnuconfig_update (though the import is still there).  We
can't close this until all of the old ebuilds are dropped, which should be
possible since 2.2.2 has stable keywords on every arch now (where necessary).

mysql:  Could you please do this?

Thanks

mysql++-1.7.26: Found
mysql++-1.7.34: Found
mysql++-2.0.4: Found
mysql++-2.2.2-r1: 
mysql++-2.3.2: 

So, those are the ones that have gnuconfig_update in them.  Could we punt them?
:)  All of the ebuilds still inherit gnuconfig as well.

old versions punted and inherits fixed.
