#49713: autoconf: generated configure scripts should not try to use nawk ---------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: larryv@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.99 Resolution: | Keywords: haspatch Port: autoconf | ---------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Or maybe it's not a good idea that we change autoconf's behavior. After all, people might be using autoconf to generate distribution tarballs of their own software. They might not want our configure script customizations. Maybe it's better for each affected port to force the use of a working awk using a configure argument, as I did for graphviz in r142776. We could even think about adding such a configure argument by default for all ports, though probably more than a handful (i.e. those not using autoconf) would complain about that. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49713#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
