[*] You can use either of the above signature files to verify that
the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact. First,
be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball.
Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify autoconf-archive-2010.10.26.tar.gz.sig
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 99089D72
and rerun the `gpg --verify' command.
This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
Autoconf 2.68
Automake 1.11.1
Gnulib v0.0-4400-g9f3df9d
Noteworthy changes in release 2010.10.26 (2010-10-26) [stable]:
The macros AX_WITH_GUILE, AX_WITH_PERL, AX_WITH_PYTHON, and AX_WITH_RUBY are
considered obsolete and will be deleted from the archive in the foreseeable
future. Use of obsolete macros can be identified by running autoconf(1) with
the flag -Wobsolete. Furthermore, the standard utility autoupdate(1) provides
assistance with updating existing "configure.ac" files.
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN has been extended to implement "DX_DOT_FEATURE(ON|OFF)". This
feature was documented, but it didn't actually exist. Further details are
available at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7340>.
A bug in AX_BOOST_BASE has been fixed that would cause BOOST_LDFLAGS to be
detected incorrectly. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7337> for further
details.
AX_LIB_HDF5 has been extended to support requesting either a serial or a
parallel HDF5 installation. Furthermore, the macro can now detect whether or
not a Fortran-ready installation is present. Further details are available at
<http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7338>.
AX_CFLAGS_WARN_ALL has been cleaned up to avoid use of obsolete Autoconf
constructs. Also, a new variant of the macro, AX_FCFLAGS_WARN_ALL, has been
added to enable support for Fortran. Further details are available at
<http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7335>.
AX_COMPILER_VENDOR has been extended to support the Clang compiler.
Caching issues in AX_BLAS have been remedied. Further details are available
at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7320>.
Plenty of Autoconf 2.68 warnings have been fixed.
Added initial version of AX_CC_FOR_BUILD.
AX_LUA_LIB_VERSION has been renamed to AX_LUA_HEADERS_VERSION, because that
is what the macro is checking, really. A new macro AX_LUA_READLINE has been
added.
The AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H macro has been improved to support the system shell
"dash". See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7317> for further details.
The AX_BLAS_F77_FUNC macro has been improved to properly save and restore the
value of the $LIBS variable. Furthermore, an extra check was added to verify
that the integer size of Fortran (4 or 8 bytes) matches that of BLAS. See
<http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7311> for further details.
AX_TLS has been updated to usual FOUND/NOT-FOUND interface.
Handling of indirectly named shell variables has been fixed in
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION. There have also been improvements to the
documentation. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7291> and
<http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7292> for further details.
