Description Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-10-02 19:30:04 UTC 
autoconf-2.67 issues redundant warning for practically all gnome packages:

configure.ac:35: warning: AC_INIT: not a literal: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=f-spot

Upstream fixed this issue:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/commit/?id=64000cf1f

Could we incorporate fix in autoconf-2.67?
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2010-10-02 20:07:54 UTC 
if the issue is fixed in autoconf-2.68, then no, i'm not fixing 2.67
Comment 2 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-10-03 00:01:30 UTC 
** AC_INIT again allows URLs with '?' for its BUG-REPORT argument.
    Regression introduced in 2.66.

It is fixed in 2.68… I'm testing it right now on the tinderbox then.
Comment 3 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-10-03 06:09:25 UTC 
Yea, it was fixed in 2.68. In case we are not going to stabilize 2.67 it's ok to avoid this patch, but once we will it's good idea to incorporate this easy fix... That said, you are the masters, so, please, decide :)
