[Libvisual-devel] Re: plans

[Duilio J. P. <dp...@fc...>]

Hi, I have updated the building scripts of
Libvisual XMMS plugin. ChangeLog:
 
- configure.in moved to configure.ac
- AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE moved to his
new form
- AM_DISABLE_STATIC and AM_PROG_LIBTOOL moved
to AC_DISABLE_STATIC and AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
- Check for pkg-config installed and above 0.14
- Misc checks make it more verbose
- AC_C_CONST check
- Use of AC_PREFIX_PROGRAM to try to guess prefix
from xmms path
 
Also some paths on src/Makefile.am make it more
relative, so objects can be build from anywhere,
not just the top_srcdir.
 
There is a major error on 0.1.4, you don't
distribute lv_xmms.h, so compilation fails.
You must include lv_xmms.h to libvisual_xmms_la_SOURCES
on src/Makefile.am, this way the header will be
included on the 'dist' target.

On first use is not neede, however, if you upgrade
autoconf or automake, this will make all things be
upgraded to the new version.
I really really recommend you to change to at least
automake 1.7. Rebuilding process is tooooo much improved.

Login in to sf.net, then go to project page, click
on Admin menu, then on Members menu, then on
'Add a developer to this project' and enter
my sf.net username: dprotti

 
Bye,
