There's still some cleanup to do, but everything seems to be working
nicely: `make -j` works, `make distcheck` passes. There is probably
plenty of bitrot in the package directories (RPM, debian), though.
The vc project files have been removed since those versions are way out
of date and quakeforge is pretty much dependent on gcc now anyway.
Most of the old Makefile.am files are now Makemodule.am. This should
allow for new Makefile.am files that allow local building (to be added
on an as-needed bases). The current remaining Makefile.am files are for
standalone sub-projects.a
The installable bins are currently built in the top-level build
directory. This may change if the clutter gets to be too much.
While this does make a noticeable difference in build times, the main
reason for the switch was to take care of the growing dependency issues:
now it's possible to build tools for code generation (eg, using qfcc and
ruamoko programs for code-gen).
Clean out libtool links from m4/.
Remove redundant dependency on automake1.8.
Add dependencies for libjack-dev and libwildmidi-dev.
More work needs to be done on package contents, but things do build.
Most of the guts of configure.ac have been moved to config.d and are then
brought in by m4_include. This will make maintaining configure.ac much easier.
Also drop use of PROGRAM and VERSION, using PACKAGE_NAME, PACKAGE_VERSION, and
on occasion, PACKAGE_STRING instead, and clean out some old files we no longer
need.
This gives us a bunch more flexibility. plugins no longer have the "lib"
prefix or the version suffix, they're now installed in
$fs_sharepath/QFplugins,, builds should take much less time (in general,
only one of pic or non-pic versions are build), bins and libs can have
individual CFLAGS
move the bootstrap comment to where people are more likely to notice it
bootstrap:
hopefully put the auto*/libtool commands in the right order
configure.ac:
make enable/disable help messages less confusing
