Description Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-12-17 09:07:52 UTC
tar-1.15.91 changed behaviour to not support shell-style globbing by default, which breaks the libxml2 testsuite.  well, it spews a ton of warning and error messages, then declares the test a success and moves on to installing anyways ;P.  this patch passes the --wildcards option to tar, which has been supported since tar-1.13.20.

Comment 3 Leonardo Boshell (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-12-18 02:36:18 UTC
I added a patch that modifies Makefile.in instead of Makefile.am to avoid the call to eautoreconf(), however please do submit your original patch upstream.

Thanks.
