So, as the demon Murphy requires, I uploaded ac-2.60-2 but haven't yet
announced it -- and upstream autoconf-2.61 was released.
I've uploaded an updated autoconf (wrapper) package that will handle
ac-2.61 (and 2.60, 2.5x, 2.59, and 2.13), and soon I will build
autoconf2.5-2.61-1. However, before I do that, cygport's logic needs to
be updated.
Yaakov, take a look at how the new gentoo wrapper handles this:
http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper/files/ac-wrapper-4.sh?rev=1.3&view=markup
particularly this section (I modifed the vers variable to account for
our old *-2.5x naming convention):
#
# Set up bindings between actual version and WANT_AUTOCONF
#
vers="2.61:2.5 2.60:2.5 2.59:2.5 2.5x:2.5 2.13:2.1"
binary=""
for v in ${vers} ; do
auto_ver=${v%:*}
if [ -z "${binary}" ] && [ -x "${0}-${auto_ver}" ] ; then
binary="${0}-${auto_ver}"
fi
done
if [ -z "${binary}" ] ; then
echo "ac-wrapper: Unable to locate any usuable version of autoconf." >&2
echo " I tried these versions: ${vers}" >&2
echo " With a base name of '${0}'." >&2
exit 1
fi
