[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44287] [OF] image package: missing AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11 macro for configure.ac

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #44287 (project octave):

Autoconf does not know a priori whether a given string is supposed to be a
macro or not, so there is no error that autoconf can catch. Anything that is
not a macro is just passed through as shell syntax.

If the macro is required, you really should consider committing the
ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx_11.m4 file in the image package hg repo (we do the same
in Octave, see m4/ax_*.m4). Otherwise there's no indication or check on
whether someone prepares a faulty package from the hg repo.
