AC_CHECK_TYPE, unlike most autoconf tests, takes two arguments,
not three. It is AC_CHECK_TYPE(type,default), rather than
AC_CHECK_TYPE(type,success_case, failure_case). parted incorrectly
expects the latter behavior. The result is that the config.h that
it generates defines __u32, __u16, etc. to nothing if those symbols
are not already defined. I have also fixed a complain where autoconf
objected to AC_CHECK_SIZEOF being called before AC_ISC_POSIX (I guess
it needs this to run test programs). Anyhow, I have attached the
patch below. I hope this is helpful.
Thanks for writing such a useful piece of software as parted.
Linux has needed repartitioning tools for a long time.
