Package: check
Version: 0.9.8-1
Severity: important
The debian package patch changes the check.m4 file in such way, that an
infinite loop is produced when AM_PATH_CHECK is used. This part:
- AC_MSG_WARN([A@&t...@m_path_check() is deprecated])
- AC_MSG_WARN([[use P@&t...@kg_check_modules([CHECK], [check >= 0.9.4])
instead]])
+ AC_MSG_WARN([AM_PATH_CHECK() is deprecated])
+ AC_MSG_WARN([[use PKG_CHECK_MODULES([CHECK], [check >= 0.9.4])
instead]])
is inside AM_PATH_CHECK - it causes the macro to be expanded again in
the AC_MSG_WARN forever.
The upstream code was correct and there's no need for this modification.
Marked important, since this breaks any reconf/build which uses the
check package.
