[AC21.5] Add description of changed options to INSTALL
20 years

APPROVE COMMIT 21.5
Will revert on request if it's considered redundant bloat, but this
can't hurt anything.
This patch adds an appendix describing the removed and changed options
from autoconf 2.13 to autoconf 2.59 to the INSTALL file.

+The output files produced by this new configure should be almost
+identical to those produced by the old. This can be tested with the
+provided regression test script. This script runs the two versions of
+configure with the supplied list of command line arguments and reports
+any differences. Please add your favorite configuration command lines
+to the list before running the test. The script is run as:
+
+$ tests/autoconf/regressiontest.pl /absolute/path/to/2.13/configure \
+ /absolute/path/to/2.59/configure >diffs.txt
+
+The only differences should be:
+- those related to changes in the command line arguments
+- the change of SYS_SIGLIST_DECLARED to HAVE_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST (because the old
+ form has been removed), and
+- The removal of trailing comments in src/config.h.

[AC21.5] Minor improvements to INSTALL
20 years
Stephen J. Turnbull
Stephen J. Turnbull
APPROVE COMMIT 21.5
This patch adds a description of the --with-modules option and its
relevance to distro maintainers, changes a bunch of --enable-foos to
--with-foos, and improves (?) the wording of some option descriptions.

[PATCH] Make daikon work with Build package
20 years
Joachim Schrod
Joachim Schrod
Hello,
I have updated configure.usage. With these updates, one can use the
elisp package Build again to build a daikon XEmacs.
-- Added lots of `with-' prefixes to options.
-- Installation options took always the next line as documentation.
E.g.,--bindir was represented in Build, --datadir was missing, etc.
Still missing: --with-zlib, --with-infodock, --with-native-sound-lib.
I couldn't decide in which section I should put them, or if I should
open a new section.
Cheers,
Joachim
ChangeLog addition:
2005-11-02 Joachim Schrod <jschrod(a)acm.org>
* configure.usage: Update to current options of configure,
to make elisp package Build work with daikon as well.
