I've had problems with bootstrapping for quite some time
and that should probably get fixed.
Bootstrapping doesn't work for me, does it for you?
Here's what I get:
$ ./bootstrap --gnulib-srcdir=../gnulib
./bootstrap: Bootstrapping from checked-out diffutils sources...
./bootstrap: consider installing git-merge-changelog from gnulib
./bootstrap: getting gnulib files...
./bootstrap: getting translations into po/.reference for diffutils...
rsync: getaddrinfo: translationproject.org 873: Name or service not known
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(122)
[Receiver=3.0.9]
When I work around that by bootstrapping with --skip-po, I see
this (autoconf 2.68, automake 1.13.1, gettext 0.18.2):
$ ./bootstrap --gnulib-srcdir=../gnulib --skip-po
...
configure.ac:163: warning: The 'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro is deprecated, and will
soon be removed.
configure.ac:163: You should use the Autoconf-provided 'AC_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro
instead,
configure.ac:163: and use '$(MKDIR_P)' instead of '$(mkdir_p)'in your
Makefile.am files.
Apparently it's overwriting a new version of m4/intl.m4 with an obsolete one...
These days bootstrap is so complicated and slow
that I kinda lost track of everything it's doing.
Maybe it's time to switch to Gary's version, for diffutils?
