Package: autoconf
Version: 2.59.cvs.2006.05.13-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
totem's configure.in uses:
m4_define(totem_version_major, 1)
m4_define(totem_version_minor, 4)
m4_define(totem_version_micro, 1)
AC_INIT(totem,
totem_version_major.totem_version_minor.totem_version_micro,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=totem)
AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR(src/totem.c)
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(AC_PACKAGE_NAME, AC_PACKAGE_VERSION)
AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)
[...]
AC_DEFINE(VERSION, AC_PACKAGE_VERSION, [package version])
[...]
AC_SUBST(VERSION)
When I run autoconf 2.59.cvs.2006.05.13-1, and then ./configure, the
resulting #define VERSION in config.h is not quoted in the same way.
It now ends up with:
#define VERSION 1.4.1
while with autoconf 2.59a-9, this resulted in:
#define VERSION "1.4.1"
This seems like a regression / backward-incompatibility in autoconf,
but perhaps totem's configure.in is doing something evil.
Bye,
