+
+2001-02-21  Lauris Kaplinski  <lauris@ximian.com>
+
+	* gnome-print-check.m4: Replaced the awk alchemy with sed alchemy.
+	I seems to work now as long as gnome-config is working - but that is
+	the whole point of gnome-config, isn't it?
+
+2001-02-19  JP Rosevear  <jpr@ximian.com>
+

+
+	* gnome-bonobo-check.m4 (BONOBO_CFLAGS, BONOBO_LIBS): Added

+
+	* gnome-bonobo-check.am (AM_BONOBO_USES_OAF): New macro.

+
+	* gnome-common.m4, Makefile.am: Install macros to

+
+	* gnome-pilot.m4 (PILOT_LIBS): An attempt to fix the gnome-pilot
+	check on Solaris (`$GNOME_CONFIG ...` returns more than one word,
+	so we need quotes around it to keep test from bombing out)
+
+2000-05-01  Dan Winship  <danw@helixcode.com>
+
+	* gnome-pilot.m4 (PILOT_LIBS): "But that trick NEVER works!"
+	"This time for sure!"
+
+Sun Apr 23 12:15:14 2000  George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
+
+	* gnome.m4: add an extra lib of docklets.  These checks are
+	  braindamaged though, they don't fail and thus gnome-core for

+2000-04-19  Eskil Heyn Olsen  <deity@eskil.dk>

+2000-02-26  James Henstridge  <james@daa.com.au>
+
+	* gnome-gettext.m4: fix up check of LINGUAS variable so that we don't
+	get problems when LINGUAS contains `en' and ALL_LINGUAS contains

+
+2000-02-22  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* autogen.sh: Don't run libtoolize when `NO_LIBTOOLIZE' is set.

+
+2000-02-05  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-libgtop-types.m4 (AC_LIBGTOP_CHECK_TYPE): New macro. This
+	is an improved version of AC_CHECK_TYPE which takes into account
+	that we need to #include some other header files on some systems
+	to get some types.
+	(GNOME_LIBGTOP_TYPES): Check for <sys/bitypes.h> for Tru64 and
+	use AC_LIBGTOP_CHECK_TYPE rather than AC_CHECK_TYPE.
+
+2000-01-26  Dave Camp  <campd@oit.edu>
+	
+	* gnome-bonobo-check.m4 Include <bonobo.h> rather than 
+	<bonobo/gnome-object.h>
+
+2000-01-26  Dave Camp  <campd@oit.edu>
+
+	* gnome-bonobo-check.m4: Check for bonobo_object_get_type() rather 
+	than gnome_object_get_type().
+

+	distribs in my last commit. fixing that now.

+
+2000-01-16  Vadim Strizhevsky  <vadim@optonline.net>

+1999-11-16  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com>

+	* gnome-xml-check.m4: always AC_SUBST GNOME_XML_LIB, so that
+	output variable will always be present.
+
+1999-11-09  Eskil Heyn Olsen  <deity@eskil.dk>
+
+	* gnome-pilot.m4: uses test -r instead of test -e, was reported as 
+	a portability bug wrt solaris.
+
+1999-10-31  Eskil Heyn Olsen  <deity@eskil.dk>
+
+	* gnome-pilot.m4: added PILOT_LINK_CHECK, used by

+
+1999-10-24  Jacob Berkman  <jberkman@andrew.cmu.edu>

+
+1999-10-21  Jacob Berkman  <jberkman@andrew.cmu.edu>

+	machines
+
+1999-09-26  Jody Goldberg <jgoldberg@home.com>
+
+	* compiler-flags.m4 : Remove -Wpointer-arith.  It generates large
+	  numbers of warnings under glibc2.1.2 with a recent egcs release.
+	  The glibc maintainers have suggested removing this flag because it
+	  is useless.
+
+1999-09-01  Havoc Pennington  <hp@pobox.com>
+
+	* gnome-xml-check.m4: If you're going to AC_PATH_PROG then use the
+	prog you find :-)	
+
+1999-08-02  Peter Teichman  <pat4@acpub.duke.edu>
+
+	* removed gnome-conduit-check.m4 - it should be distributed with

+	glib 1.3 from CVS
+
+1999-07-06  Tuomas J. Lukka  <lukka@iki.fi>
+
+	* gnome-x-checks.m4: forbid compiling with Gtk-1.3 for now.
+        gnome only works with 1.2 so far. 
+
+1999-07-05  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* gnome.m4: Make "extra library" message slightly easier to read.

+
+1999-06-11  Tuomas J. Lukka <lukka@iki.fi>
+
+	* gnome-guile-checks.m4: Debian has qt_null in -lqthreads but
+ 	  no main. Changed both checks for 'main' to qt_null.
+	  I hope this is correct - it shouldn't break anything.
+
+1999-05-11  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* Makefile.am (MACROS): Add `gnome-bonobo-check.m4'.
+
+1999-05-09  Jacob Berkman  <jberk+@cmu.edu>

+	* Makefile.am (MACROS): Sort lines.
+
+Sun Mar 28 23:39:48 1999  Norbert Warmuth  <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
+
+	* gnome-vfs.m4: Add --with-vfs option. GNOME_VFS_LIBS still needs
+	to be fixed but that's not a problem because there's no libvfs, yet.
+
+1999-03-10  Tomislav Vujec  <tvujec@carnet.hr>
+
+	* aclocal-include.m4 (AM_ACLOCAL_INCLUDE): Add ACLOCAL_FLAGS in
+	ACLOCAL. This allows maintainer rules to work if any of the macros
+	change.
+
+1999-03-10  Tomislav Vujec  <tvujec@carnet.hr>
+
+	* gnome.m4 (GNOME_INIT_HOOK): Wrapped position parameter in
+	testing for additional inits. It gets expanded while generating
+	configure, resulting in an empty parameter list - syntax error in
+	for statement.
+
+1999-03-09  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* gnome.m4 (GNOME_INIT): Add a new paramater, which is passed to
+	GNOME_INIT_HOOK. 
+	(GNOME_INIT_HOOK): New parameter "additional inits".  This is a
+	list like "applets capplet", and the corresponding
+	GNOME_APPLETS_LIBS and GNOME_CAPPLETS_LIBS are defined.
+
+1998-03-01  Mark Crichton <crichton@gimp.org>
+
+	* gnome-objc-checks : Added HAVE_GNOME_OBJC conditional
+
+1998-02-27  Gregory McLean <gregm@comstar.net>
+
+	* gnome-x-checks.m4 : Require at least gtk+ 1.2 (pointless getting
+	bug reports with an old glib/gtk/gdk set..)
+
+1999-02-25  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-libgtop-checks.m4: Require LibGTop >= 1.0.0.
+
+1999-02-22  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
+
+	* compiler-flags.m4: Only add the compilation warnings if the
+	compiler is GCC.
+
+1999-02-20  Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
+
+	* gnome.m4: Added and exported ZVT_LIBS.
+
+Tue Feb 16 19:35:42 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

+	* gnome-x-checks.m4: Require GTK+-1.1.16.
+
+1999-02-15  Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
+
+	* gnome-gettext.m4: Work around a bug in BSDI's native sh, which in-
+	correctly expands ${LINGUAS=$ALL_LINGUAS}. Switched to if/fi variant.
+
+1999-02-15  Chris Lahey  <clahey@umich.edu>
+
+	* gnome-print-check.m4: Copied this from libhnj/libhnj.m4.  Almost
+	completely replaced the old version.  The only usage difference is
+	that it defines GNOME_PRINT_LIBS instead of GNOME_PRINT_LIB and
+	defines GNOME_PRINT_CFLAGS as well.
+
+1999-02-10  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-objc-checks.m4: Applied a patch from Kenneth Stailey;
+	use $CFLAGS when invoking $OBJC so the user can add additional
+	include paths.
+
+1999-02-05  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* compiler-flags.m4: Don't add warning and compiler flags to
+	the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS when they're cached. This fixes the
+	problem that CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS get longer and longer each
+	time you run a `config.status --recheck'.
+
+1999-02-04  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* aclocal-include.m4 (INSIDE_GNOME_COMMON): New automake
+	conditional that's always false.
+
+	* gnome-common.m4: New file. This defines a `GNOME_COMMON_INIT'
+	macro that should be used in all GNOME Applications outside
+	the CVS tree.
+
+	* Makefile.am: If we are `INSIDE_GNOME_COMMON', install all
+	$(MACROS), autogen.sh, gnome-common.m4 and a newly created
+	gnome-macros.dep in `$(datadir)/aclocal/gnome'.
+
+1999-01-24  Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
+
+	* gnome-pthread-check.m4: Add recognition of 2 more libraries - 
+	pthreads and pthread-support build in libc (as on BSDI).
+
+1999-01-23  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-libgtop-checks.m4 (GNOME_LIBGTOP_DOCU): New macro. This
+	checks whether you have the LibGTop documentation installed and
+	defines `HAVE_LIBGTOP_DOCU' if appropriate. Also provides automake
+ 	conditional.
+
+1999-01-20  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* acinclude.m4 (ac_result): Unset CATOBJEXT so
+	that the macros and Makefiles correctly handle
+	disabling NLS when no gettext is found.
+
+1999-01-19  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* gnome-cxx-check.m4 (GNOME_CHECK_CXX): Rewrite to be saner.  
+	Don't limit yourself to a fixed set of names for the compiler.
+
+1999-01-06 Nat Friedman   <nat@nat.org>
+
+	* Makefile.am (MACROS): Added gnome-print-check.m4 to MACROS
+
+1999-01-05  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* gnome-support.m4: Include dirent.h before checking whether
+	`scandir' needs to be declared.
+	* need-declaration.m4: Revert change.
+
+1999-01-05  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
+
+	* need-declaration.m4, gnome-support.m4: Fixed the scandir detection.
+
+1998-12-22  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+	* gnome.m4:  Added and exported GNOME_APPLET_LIBS.
+
+1998-12-16  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+	* gnome-support.m4: Removed all the stuff for argp, that was
+	causing gnomesupport not to build.
+
+1998-12-15  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-gettext.m4: Add the hacked version of the gettext
+	macros that is used in Gtk+ here.
+
+	* autogen.sh: Accept both AM_GNU_GETTEXT and AM_GNOME_GETTEXT.
+	 
+1998-12-15  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-libgtop-check.m4: All parts of GNOME will now require
+	LibGTop >= 0.99.0 which is the latest version from CVS and
+	already feature-freezed for GNOME 1.0.
+	
+1998-12-09  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* aclocal-include.m4 (AM_ACLOCAL_INCLUDE): Make this work
+	with more than one directory.
+
+1998-12-08  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>
+
+	* gnome-libgtop-sysdeps.m4: Moved into the LibGTop module.
+	This file contains too much stuff that should only be used
+	internally in LibGTop, so it's better to have it there.
+
+1998-12-06  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>

+1998-03-12  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* gnome-support.m4: Add a check for <linewrap.h> -- this enables

+
+Mon Mar  9 19:32:42 1998  Tom Tromey  <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+	* gnome-support.m4: Build vsnprintf.o, not vsnprint.o.
+
+1998-03-09  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

+
+Sun Mar  8 17:04:28 1998  Tom Tromey  <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+	* gnome-support.m4: Set need_gnome_support shell variable.  Define
+	BUILD_GNOME_SUPPORT automake conditional.  Define LTLIBOBJS.  Look
+	for argp_domain element in struct argp.
+

+
+	* gnome-support.m4 (GNOME_SUPPORT_CHECKS): Add argp-pvh.o to
+	LIBOBJS.
+
+	* gnome-support.m4 (GNOME_SUPPORT_CHECKS): Check for strnlen().

+
+	* gnome-support.m4 (GNOME_SUPPORT_CHECKS): Check for argp code,
+	strndup, program_invocation_name, program_invocation_short_name.
+
+Mon Mar  2 15:27:44 1998  Tom Tromey  <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+	* gnome-x-checks.m4 (GNOME_X_CHECKS): Also check for SMlib.h; some
+	Solaris systems have -lSM but not SMlib.h.
+
+Sun Mar  1 17:49:42 1998  Tom Tromey  <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+	* gnome.m4 (GNOME_INIT): Changed spacing so --help output looks

+	(OBJC_LIBS): New config var.
+	* gnome-x-checks.m4: Add `AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBSM)' if `-lSM' is
+	already part of `$x_libs'.
+	Move pthread check to new file.
+	
+Sat Feb 14 12:45:35 1998  Tom Tromey  <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+	* Makefile.am (macros.dep): Use single quotes, not double quotes.

+
+1998-02-14  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* Makefile.am (macros.dep): Put back doubled `$'.  We want the
+	expansion to occur in the including Makefile, not here.
+	Otherwise, there will be an extra `../' in the rule.
+
+Sat Feb 14 17:41:28 KST 1998  Changwoo Ryu  <cwryu@adam.kaist.ac.kr>
+
+	* autogen.sh: multilple aclocal -I directories.

+
+	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add `autogen.sh'.
+
+	* gnome-objc-checks.m4 (GNOME_INIT_OBJC): Solaris /bin/sh doesn't
+	understand `test -e'.
+
+	* autogen.sh: New file.
+
+	* gnome.m4 (GNOME_INIT): Look for gnomeConf.sh in $libdir, where
+	the installation actually installs it.
+
+	* Makefile.am (macros.dep): New maintainer rule for handling
+	automatic rebuilding of aclocal.m4 if any of the macros change.
+	(MACROS): New variable.  List of all `m4' macros in this
+	directory.
+
+1998-02-12  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+	* gnome-support.m4: New file.  Defines GNOME_SUPPORT_CHECKS for

+	* gnome.m4: New file.  Moved AC_CHECK_GNOME from `configure.in' to
+	here, and renamed macro to GNOME_CHECK_GNOME.
+	* gnome-x-checks.m4: Likewise, move and renaming AC_GNOME_X_CHECKS 
+	to GNOME_X_CHECKS.
+	
+	* aclocal-include.m4: New file.  Defines AM_ACLOCAL_INCLUDE macro

+dnl - Do an AC_SUBST on the CURSES_INCLUDEDIR and CURSES_LIBS so that
+dnl   @CURSES_INCLUDEDIR@ and @CURSES_LIBS@ will be available in
+dnl   Makefile.in's
+dnl - Modify the following configure variables (these are the only
+dnl   curses.m4 variables you can access from within configure.in)
+dnl   CURSES_INCLUDEDIR - contains -I's and possibly -DRENAMED_CURSES if
+dnl                       an ncurses.h that's been renamed to curses.h
+dnl                       is found.
+dnl   CURSES_LIBS       - sets -L and -l's appropriately
+dnl   CFLAGS            - if --with-sco, add -D_SVID3 
+dnl   has_curses        - exports result of tests to rest of configure
+dnl
+dnl Usage:
+dnl ======
+dnl 1) Add lines indicated below to acconfig.h
+dnl 2) call AC_CHECK_CURSES after AC_PROG_CC in your configure.in
+dnl 3) Instead of #include <curses.h> you should use the following to
+dnl    properly locate ncurses or curses header file
+dnl
+dnl    #if defined(USE_NCURSES) && !defined(RENAMED_NCURSES)
+dnl    #include <ncurses.h>
+dnl    #else
+dnl    #include <curses.h>
+dnl    #endif
+dnl
+dnl 4) Make sure to add @CURSES_INCLUDEDIR@ to your preprocessor flags
+dnl 5) Make sure to add @CURSES_LIBS@ to your linker flags or LIBS
+dnl
+dnl Notes with automake:
+dnl - call AM_CONDITIONAL(HAS_CURSES, test "$has_curses" = true) from
+dnl   configure.in
+dnl - your Makefile.am can look something like this
+dnl   -----------------------------------------------
+dnl   INCLUDES= blah blah blah $(CURSES_INCLUDEDIR) 
+dnl   if HAS_CURSES
+dnl   CURSES_TARGETS=name_of_curses_prog
