Subject: [PATCH] AC_INIT: add --runstatedir option to configure
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
http://lwn.net/Articles/436012/ documents that many distros
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
are now preferring to use /run rather than /var/run for
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
storage of pid files and other per-process temporary files
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
that must not be cleaned out during arbitrary TMPDIR sweeps.
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
As such, the GNU Coding Standards were recently changed to
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
recommend a new configure option to make it easy to choose
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
this directory at configure time. This patch adds support
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
for the option to all configure scripts built by autoconf.
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
* general.m4 (_AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS): Add new directory option.
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
(_AC_INIT_HELP): Document it.
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
* doc/autoconf.texi (Installation Directory Variables): Document
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
new option.
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
(Site Defaults): Mention typical use within a distro.
|
|
|
8dc1e6 |
* NEWS: Mention the addition.
