Description Christoph Reiter (lazka) 2015-06-25 11:31:41 UTC 
libgee currently fails to build in jhbuild due to missing AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED (see bug 750972)

AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED should be available in m4-common defined in the bootstrap module, but (1) bootstrap doesn't do anything anymore in trunk (see meta-bootstrap) (2) explicitly installing m4-common installs a too old automake which makes m4-common install fail.

The only workaround atm is removing the too old automake by hand, and call "jhbuild -m bootstrap buildone m4-common"

I don't know much about jhbuild, but ideally anything needed as an implicit dependency of all packages should just be updated when I call "jhbuild build".
