Commenting out the below line in the ebuild works to get it to build, looks pretty ugly though: sed -i -e '/^autoreconf/s:^:set +e; e:' autogen.sh || die I was told by phcoder of the grub project on #grub in Freenode: May 27 17:54:13 <phcoder> joecool: we don't autopoint So I'm assuming the ebuild shouldn't be doing this. Is there a way to specify to autoreconf that it should *not* autopoint? Hopefully I wasn't followed -_-
Created attachment 313471 [details] Build.log Because I was followed. Expecting this bug to get marked invalid anyway.
@vapier: It looks like eautoreconf does not exactly mimic the same logic that autoreconf uses with regards to detecting AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION. From what I can tell, autoreconf greps for this macro in configure.ac directly. eautoreconf looks for it in trace output from autoconf --trace=AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION. Since grub calls AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION from an auxiliary m4 file, eautoreconf is picking it up. Can we change the autopoint detection to match autoreconf behavior? Or can you suggest an alternate solution?
I have put a (possibly temporary) fix in place. + 05 Jun 2012; Mike Gilbert <floppym@gentoo.org> grub-9999.ebuild: + Call autoreconf directly (via autogen.sh) since eautoreconf insists on callign + autopoint. Bug 418081. +
