is it causing _any_ problem at all ???
No one I am aware of. But since is signalled as a QA issue, I preferred
reporting it.
this is strange, looks like autoconf doesn't recognize foreign anymore.
@base-system, any idea ?
"foreign" isnt an autoconf command, it's a parameter to automake
if you look at the files, it should be apparent the real issue:
configure.ac:AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE ([foreign dist-bzip2 dist-gzip])
configure: (foreign dist-bzip2 dist-gzip)
hmm, looks to me like there shouldnt be a space there ... the m4 language does
not allow for it ...
ugh, I had shit in the eyes. Fixed without a bump.
