Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] host-m4: provide a recent version to make the autotools happy
Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 09:55:17 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201404070955.17020.jbe@pengutronix.de> (raw)

Since commit 5ef597fcaa290267e8cffe33b60b870cda0d52fa the autotools-autoconf
package forces a very specific and recent M4 version. Otherwise it fails
with:
    
checking for GNU M4 that supports accurate traces...
 configure: error: no acceptable m4 could be found in $PATH.
GNU M4 1.4.6 or later is required; 1.4.16 or newer is recommended.
GNU M4 1.4.15 uses a buggy replacement strstr on some systems.
Glibc 2.9 - 2.12 and GNU M4 1.4.11 - 1.4.15 have another strstr bug.
