autoconf-2.72e is now available. This is a *release candidate* for autoconf 2.72 final. Please test it as thoroughly as possible. Testing in Windows- and Darwin-based environments would be particularly helpful. Testing your own project’s configure.ac with the new autoconf is also particularly helpful.
I tested over 200 of the X.Org packages hosted under https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/ with autoconf-2.72e (along with automake 1.16.5 & libtool 2.4.7) on Solaris 11.4 x86, with each of the gcc 13.2.0, clang 13.0.1, and Solaris Studio 12.6 compilers, and didn't see any problems - they all seemed to build successfully. (I didn't do any actual testing of the built binaries though, and today is my last work day before the holiday break, so won't be.) I did see 3 failures from "gmake check" with autoconf-2.72e, which I reported separately to bug-autoconf: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2023-12/msg00156.html I see one of them is already known: https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?110986 -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith@xxxxxxxxxx Oracle Solaris Engineering - https://blogs.oracle.com/solaris
