There are 810 commits between the gnulib version we're using and development head. None of them mention 2.72 or 2.73 as far as I can tell. Which commit(s) contain the fixes? In princile, that should be this one: * 7c7c8a519f 2022-12-25 Paul Eggert | largefile: sync from Autoconf master Thanks. I have forwarded this report to bug-grub. |
Autoconf 2.72 (or 2.73) seems to be under preparation upstream, I therefore started to build dependent components against the pre-release [1] to verify that they can be built once it lands in Fedora. Your component fails to build with the new version of autoconf, due to the following error: configure:9900: error: possibly undefined macro: _AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. autoreconf: error: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 Unfortunately, this can't be fixed with an autoreconf, an update of the files provided by gnulib are necessary. These files are usually added during the bootstrap of the source code, which is done to generate the release tarball. Please forward this to the community, and update the component accordingly.
