Hi libxml2 developpers, I'm the new maintainer of the libxml2 package for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and would have a tiny little request before release of libxml2. It would be nice to somewhat update autotools stuff by doing the following : - Rename configure.in to configure.ac (configure.in is deprecated in latest versions of autoconf) - Remove acconfig.h (acconfig.h is deprecated in latest versions of autoconf) - Apply the attached patch to configure.ac (to "fix" the "lack" of acconfig.h) - Run autoreconf (latest version preferred) - Run automake (latest version preferred) - Run libtoolize --force (latest version preferred) At least, a libtoolize --force would be appreciable, because latest versions of libtools fix some detection breakage on some "unusual" architecture, and that will prevent me to have to do it on my side ;) Thanks Mike PS: BTW, are you aware of the tons of "comparison is always (true|false) due to limited range of data type" warnings when compiling with all warnings enabled ? -- "I have sampled every language, french is my favorite.
