Hi all, I'm working on a patch for libpcap's configure script when I found a small problem (running autoconf version 2.57 on a Redhat 9 machine). When I run autoconf on the unmodified configure.in from CVS I get the following error which prevents a new configure script from being generated: configure.in:35: error: do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ (see section `AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS' If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. I believe that the use of LIBOBJS here is legitimate (because libpcap doesn't use automake) and the patch below prevents autoconf flagging this as an error. Cheers, Erik diff -u -r1.104 configure.in --- configure.in 15 Dec 2003 01:35:04 -0000 1.104 +++ configure.in 5 Jan 2004 23:23:30 -0000 @@ -32,6 +32,7 @@ AC_CHECK_FUNCS(ether_hostton strerror strlcpy) needsnprintf=no +m4_pattern_allow(LIBOBJS) LIBOBJS= AC_CHECK_FUNCS(vsnprintf snprintf,, [needsnprintf=yes]) -- ------------------------------------------------------ [N] Erik de Castro Lopo, Senior Computer Engineer [E] erik.de.castro.lopo () sensorynetworks com [W] http://www.sensorynetworks.com [T] +61 2 83022726 [F] +61 2 94750316 [A] L4/140 William St, East Sydney NSW 2011, Australia ------------------------------------------------------ - This is the TCPDUMP workers list.
