Separate Emacs misc. files dir. from Emacs code dir.

New option --emacsetcdir was added, but it's set default to the same value as --emacslispdir for backward compatibility.

configure: Fix detection of libdir in ldconfig configuration

2011-06-01T20:02:58Z

Ever since commit b4b5e9ce4dac62111ec11da6d22b7e618056801f the detection of libdir in the ldconfig configuration has been broken, resulting in RPATH being set when not needed and not wanted. The cause was a change from an IFS setting of: IFS="$(printf '\n\t')" to a new setting of: IFS="$(printf '\n')" That looks desirable since we want to split the output of ldconfig based on newlines, (and not split on any filename that might have an embedded tab in it). The subtle bug in the above is that the shell trims any trailing newlines when performing command substitution so the final statement above was equivalent to: IFS='' which prevented any splitting of the ldconfig output at all. Fix this by avoiding command substitution and just using a literal newline in the source file for setting this variable.

build: Save configure options and re-use them for automatic runs of configure

2011-03-10T19:30:06Z

This supports the case of a user running "configure --prefix=/foo" then later updating the soruce (including the configure script) and re-running make. In this case, the make invocation will re-run configure. Before this change, this run of configure would lose the user's carefully chosen prefix. This is now fixed so that configrue is re-run with the user's options.

build: Add support for non-source-directory builds.

2011-03-09T23:10:03Z

Such as: mkdir build cd build ../configure make This is implemented by having the configure script set a srcdir variable in Makefile.config, and then sprinkling $(srcdir) into various make rules. We also use vpath directives to convince GNU make to find the source files from the original source directory.

configure: Drop global setting of IFS (without space in it).

2011-01-26T13:29:03Z

This was originally intended to help support filenames with spaces in them, but this actually breaks things when someone sets a command with a space in it, (such as CC="ccache cc"). Instead, we now only set a custom IFS when acting on the newline-separated list of files from /sbin/ldconfig.

configure: add options to disable emacs/zsh/bash and choose install dir.

2011-01-26T12:30:32Z

add --bashcompletiondir and --zshcompletiondir (like --emacslispdir) to choose installation dir for bash/zsh completion files Make some features optional: --without-emacs / --with-emacs=no do not install lisp file --without-bash-completion / --with-bash-completion=no do not install bash files --without-zsh-completion / --with-zsh-completion=no do not install zsh files By default, everything is enabled. You can reenable something with --with-feature=yes

configure: Add explicit check for glib >= 2.14

2010-11-16T17:00:34Z

For cases where GMime is present, but happy with glib 2.12, for example.

configure: Use pkg-config --exists rather than --modversion

2010-11-16T16:51:50Z

With --modversion we were asking for output that we were just throwing away anyway. The --exists option does just what we want, (no output and communivating only via return value). Also, --exists allows for testing versions of the package as well.

configure: Add a check for the -Wl,--as-needed flag.

2010-10-30T20:20:33Z

This fits with our general build philosophy of checking at configure time for desired support, (rather than putting platform-specific conditionals into our Makefiles).
