don't autogen avahi
Last modified: 2012-02-15 13:37:29 UTC
avahi has a clash with automake. Ever since automake 1.11.2, it is not supported to use pkglib_DATA because as automake says: """ service-type-database/Makefile.am:21: `pkglibdir' is not a legitimate directory for `DATA' """ Since we install avahi from tarball and clearly the tarball was rolled with an older version of automake, we can avoid the trouble for ourselves by not redoing autogen. We don't carry any patches, so this shouldn't cause any issues.
Created attachment 207423 [details] [review] avahi: use ./configure instead of ./autogen.sh This avoids a problem caused by an incompatible change in automake 1.11.2.
There's an upstrema patch to fix it, probably worth asking someone (mezcalero?) to make a new tarball.
meanwhile, the build is still breaking...
Fixed with avahi 0.6.31.
Created attachment 207614 [details] [review] core-3.4: upgrade avahi to 0.6.31 This fixes an incompatibility with automake 1.11.2 and newer (which is appearing in many distros as of late).
