| Patch | Description | Author | Forwarded | Bugs | Origin | Last update |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| atomic.patch | Make autom4te atomically replace its output file. Upstream is not interested in this patch; see Forwarded: URL. | Ben Pfaff <pfaffben@debian.org> | yes | debian | 2006-05-25 | |
| stricter-versioning.patch | Invalidate the Autom4te cache more aggressively. Upstream only invalidates the Autom4te cache if it is older than auto4mte, but this only works well if the autom4te binary date reflects the date when it was installed. In debian, the autom4te binary date is instead the date when it was built, which doesn't guarantee that caches will be properly invalidated. . Upstream may be interested, but requested some changes that have not yet been made; see the Forwarded: URL. |

| avoid-undefined-behavior-for-32bit-off_t.patch | Fix undefined behavior for 32-bit off_t. autoconf (2.69-6) unstable; urgency=low . * lib/autoconf/specific.m4: Use ((off_t) 1 << 31) << 31 in place of (off_t) 1 << 62 to avoid undefined behavior when off_t is 32-bit. Closes: #742780. Thanks to Mathieu Malaterre <malat@debian.org> for reporting this bug. |

| AM_PROG_LIBTOOL.patch | Make autoreconf recognize AM_PROG_LIBTOOL too . during the "getting the main packages ready"-campaign for ppc64el I noticed that dh-autoreconf doesn't work if a package uses AM_PROG_LIBTOOL but works with AC_PROG_LIBTOOL though both makros should behave the same (and are both deprecated) according to http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/LT_005fINIT.html A sample package for this is version 0.4.5+cvs20030824-7 of smpeg (I will upload an NMU now for that package, because it prevents the build of kde4libs). . The following patch changes this behaviour, and would save quite many sourceful uploads, so I'd ask you to check the fix and if applicable upload it soon. That would really be a great help for this / all future ports of Debian (though of course packages should be fixed to not use deprecated macros, but that's something else). |

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

| mmap-leak-fix.patch | [PATCH] Fix memory leak in AC_FUNC_MMAP * lib/autoconf/functions.m4 (AC_FUNC_MMAP): Fix memory leak in test case, found by configuring with gcc -fsanitize=address. |
