Joerg,
Do you think the version checking in the reconf script is strictly
necessary?
How do you feel about it's removal?
Personally wouldn't mind if all the reconf/doXXX scripts
disappeared in favor of an updated configure/make.
(ideally using more recent autoXXX scripts if
someone can figure how to do it construct them)
Thank you for your opinion. Do you have a patch?
I looked at converting it to autoconf 2.59, but this
line in configure.in is the hard part:
AC_OUTPUT(
...
[if test -n "$CONFIG_FILES"; then
. ${avrlib_basedir}/config-ml.in
fi],
...
)
config-ml is a big shell script dealing with multilibs.
I assume multilib was a cygnus thing for building the
libraries for *all* cpus. config-ml is full of cpus
except avr. It also says:
# We have to handle being invoked by both Cygnus configure and Autoconf.
So, being avr specific, should all this ancient multilib complication
be deleted?
