autoconf: add missing perl-module-file-find to RDEPENDS

2016-01-13T00:12:42+00:00

The autoscan script uses the File.pm module which was missing in the
list of RDEPENDS. This caused autoscan to fail with

  % autoscan
  [...]
  Can't locate File/Find.pm in @INC [...]

autoconf: Disable macro which causes excessive delays when using dash as sh

2015-12-14T15:13:50+00:00

At the start of every configure script, the check for solaris 'print' causes
significant problems on a linux machine with dash as /bin/sh since it triggers
the execution of "print" which on some linux systems is a perl script which is
part of mailcap. Worse, this perl script calls "which file" and if successful
ignores the path file was found in and just runs "file" without a path. Each
execution causes PATH to be searched. In something like gettext with multiple
configure scripts, this is worth something like 30,000 syscalls of which 3,000
are execs.

Simply assuming the shell's printf function works cuts out all the fork overhead
and when parallel tasks are running, this overhead appears to be significant.

autoconf: simplify perl location forcing logic

2015-05-15T16:58:39+00:00

Instead of letting configure find the host's perl and then use a complicated sed
to replace it at install time, simply pre-seed the configure logic with the path
we want to use.

Emacs is somewhat broken on Fedora 21. Don't check for it. We
don't need it.

autoconf: remove automake patch enforcing --foreign

2014-07-29T08:55:35+00:00

Since 2004 we've been carrying a patch[1] make autoreconf pass --foreign to
automake.  Presumably at the time this was due to many upstreams using
hand-coded bootstrap scripts that passed --foreign manually, but we were using
autoreconf.  These days many projects have added foreign to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE and
use autoreconf directly, so this patch isn't as critical as it used to be.

autoconf: don't disable the autoheader warnings

2014-06-06T08:26:19+00:00

The usual autoheader warning is due to AC_DEFINE variables not having a
description.  This results in no variable being defined in config.h, which leads
to code behaving as if the test failed when it actually succeeded.

This patch was introduced to OpenEmbedded back in 2004:

http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded/commit/?id=5eab06d132cb2895fd579f5cedffbb54c27794f8

There is no rationale for the patch so I suspect this is due to the warnings
being fatal and the submitter not understanding that the problem is more than
cosmetic.
