Follow-up Comment #3, sr #107986 (project autoconf): Oh, a quick note about the attached patch to require AC_INIT - this patch will currently cause "make check" in autoconf to fail, because some of the autoconf test cases don't call AC_INIT either :-(.
Possible solutions include: 1. Fix all the tests so that they use AC_INIT 2. Create an option flag meaning "do not require AC_INIT", and change those tests to use it 3. Make omitting AC_INIT a warning, not an error. All the above would *work*. Turning the omission of AC_INIT into a warning might be the easiest upward-compatible approach. However, which one is most acceptable to the autoconf developers? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?107986> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
