Hi,
commit b536c61a6df3 ("m4: Remove test for OCaml Bytes module",
2021-11-09) removed AM_CONDITIONAL([HAVE_BYTES_COMPAT_ML ... from
"m4/guestfs-ocaml.m4". However, in the common submodule,
"mlstdutils/Makefile.am" still contains lines such as:
if HAVE_BYTES_COMPAT_ML
This causes autoreconf in libguestfs to fail with:
Ahhhhh, that's not good. Let me fix that very quickly.
common/mlstdutils/Makefile.am:30: error: HAVE_BYTES_COMPAT_ML does
not
appear in AM_CONDITIONAL
My libguestfs checkout is current master (commit 4fe8df48a723), with the
matching common submodule checkout (62ccce447228).
Substituting a constant for HAVE_BYTES_COMPAT_ML in the "common"
submodule is not obviously a solution, as guestfs-tools still has
AM_CONDITIONAL([HAVE_BYTES_COMPAT_ML ..., in "configure.ac" (at commit
7fdf82407d36).
For now, so that I can progress with something else, I guess I'll try
checking out libguestfs at an earlier commit than b536c61a6df3.
Rich.
