<fossy>stikonas: neat, ill have a look through some of the others this arvo
<fossy>um
<fossy>afternoon
<stikonas>yeah, I understand arvo too (after I looked it up last time)
<stikonas>although i haven't heard it while I visited Australia 3 years ago...
<stikonas>but I guess as tourist I didn't talk too much to locals
<stikonas>well, I think that should be all generated files now, but of course having another pair of eyes would be useful
<fossy>which part of australia?
<stikonas>some parts of the eastern coast and a bit in the central
<stikonas>sydney (also blue mountains), melbourne, cairns, newcastle and when to Uluru/King's canyon in central part
<fossy>neat!
<stikonas>hmm, automake 1.6 is turning to be a bit more complicated to bootstrap with 1.5...
<stikonas>maybe instead of that I'll just use the original trick I used in 1.4 (use autoconf and install manually)
<stikonas>but that's some other day
<fossy>stikonas[m]: merged aclocal
<fossy>thing
<fossy>binutils
<fossy>gettext
<fossy>.m4
<fossy>i'm just spouting random things
<fossy>don't mind me
<fossy>stikonas[m]: you are very good at not letting bits of fake source slip through
<fossy>i basically did not find any
*fossy consideres whether we should be using git tar checkouts
<fossy>that would mean there is a closer to zero chance of pregenerated files
<fossy>cause if we don't use release tarballs - which the primary use of is to include genereated files - we elimate that pretty much completely
<fossy>unless there is some asinine devs who like checking in multiple thousand LOC changes regularly
<fossy>but that does nto seem to be GNU
***ChanServ sets mode: +o rekado_
***rekado_ is now known as rekado
***lukedashjr is now known as luke-jr
<stikonas>fossy: I think I found a fix for your failing CI in https://github.com/fosslinux/live-bootstrap/pull/67
<stikonas>I think in general we should run acloal before autoconf
<stikonas> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Autotools#/media/File:Autoconf-automake-process.svg
<fossy>ooh
<stikonas>I'm also an offender for automake 1.5...
<stikonas>rest seems fine
<stikonas>but I might get rid of automake 1.5 completely...
<stikonas>I thought it will be useful for bootstrapping 1.6, but it doesn't seem that helpful
<fossy>oh, ok
<fossy>which auto thing needed bootstrapping
<fossy>it depended on itself or smth?
<stikonas>kind of...
<pder>fossy, stikonas: https://github.com/fosslinux/live-bootstrap/pull/68
<stikonas>well, it's the installations steps that are tricky...
<stikonas>some macros are new there
<stikonas>so I think I'll just do autoconf only on important files (and skip configure script)
<stikonas>(like I did in automake 1.4 stage1)
<stikonas>pder: looking
<fossy>neat, nice work pder
<fossy>that looks sane to me
<stikonas>maybe just license of patch...
<stikonas>other than that looks very nice
<fossy>also pder can you add urself to spdx for the kaem files
<pder>ok, will do. So GPL 2 for the patch?
<stikonas>GPL 2+
***scs is now known as Guest75682
<stikonas>so it includes 3 as well
<pder>ok
<stikonas>well, it's original license, in principle we can make combined work 3+... but we are not doing it for anything else
<stikonas>it's just a stub anyway
<pder>ok, updates are pushed
<stikonas>ok, thanks. Let's wait for CI to finish
