Hey all, I’ve been working on rewriting the build system from plain autoconf (+optional libtool) to the modern toolchain that uses all the kids on the block - autoconf, automake, libtool and pkg-config.
The work in progress can be found in 4-convert-to-modern-autotools-autoconf-automake-libtool branch and it passes our on the set of Linux systems we have in GitLab CI. However, if you have less common (but still supported) system[*] (check PLATFORMS.md), and you are willing to spend a little time to test the aforementioned branch, I would like to hear success or failure stories, so I know where to focus next. I would prefer to gather the feedback here: https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/merge_requests/985 And/or in associated issue here (for more generic comments): https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/4 The work is more of a rewrite of the whole build system than simple refactoring, so it is crucial to get some testing from the systems we don’t really have access to. Cheers, Ondrej * - In theory, even cross-compilation for Windows msys2 should be possible, but I haven’t had yet time to do that. -- Ondřej Surý ond...@isc.org _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
