I made another pretest of hello, ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hello. The only changes are the ones reported here.
When running gnulib-tool --import or --update, there is quite a long list of #include's. The only modules I've actually specified are closeout getopt gettext. I imagine that many of the others come from dependencies. But the "top-level" includes all include whatever is necessary, don't they? gnulib-tool says you "may" need to include: #include <getopt.h> #include <stdbool.h> #include <unistd.h> #include "__fpending.h" #include "close-stream.h" #include "closeout.h" #include "error.h" #include "exit.h" #include "exitfail.h" #include "gettext.h" #include "quotearg.h" #include "xalloc.h" But my system.h only has: #include <getopt.h> #include <unistd.h> #include "gettext.h" #include "closeout.h" (and a few other ANSI headers). And there have been no complaints. hello.c does not directly use quotearg or fpending, etc. Would it be reasonable/possible to have gnulib-tool output only the top-level #includes? Thanks, Karl
