Description

The autoupdate tool modernizes configure.ac and cleans up formatting. Might be interesting to try it.

  • Target version changed from 2.0beta2 to TBD
  • % Done changed from 90 to 10

This turned out to have side effects on older platforms, so postponing for now.

Worth looking at it again when we now try to make configure.ac consistent.

Since some time has passed I would like to give it a new try:

https://github.com/inliniac/suricata/pull/2904

It would be nice if some of you could test that on your distributions as well. I tested it on ArchLinux and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

It would also help for some other improvements within our configure script like #1835 and would like to have it merged to use it for the future work on those configure tasks.

Actions #7

Updated by Andreas Herz about 6 years ago

With all the other PR I would also suggest we add some sort of check within the buildbot so we won't get back old (not modern) configure.ac

Actions #8

Updated by Andreas Herz about 5 years ago

Eric and I need to discuss this with regards to the possible checks within the buildbot

Actions #9

Updated by Andreas Herz over 4 years ago

Should we close this, since we converted it or should we wait until we have some sort of check at the QA that we don't reintroduce old behaviour?

Actions #10

  • Status changed from Assigned to Closed
  • Target version changed from TBD to 5.0rc1

I don't think the QA part of this is critical. Errors will be caught by existing QA. We can review changes, as well as the whole thing regularly.
