X-Git-Tag: emacs-pretest-24.0.91~143 X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f4cc5b5416958b1ddf5c3b855f68b43005ba8c4f;p=emacs.git * configure.in: Remove check for -lintl (Bug#9713). The check breaks 'configure' in some CentOS 5.7 x86 configurations. The check was helpful but not essential in Solaris 2.6 (1997), and is no longer needed in Solaris 8 (2000). Solaris 2.6 is obsolete -- Sun dropped support for it in 2006 -- and without access to that Silurian platform we can't maintain the code anyway. --- diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 52aa133f8e0..a3bbe29e77e 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,12 @@ +2011-10-12 Paul Eggert + + * configure.in: Remove check for -lintl (Bug#9713). + The check breaks 'configure' in some CentOS 5.7 x86 configurations. + The check was helpful but not essential in Solaris 2.6 (1997), + and is no longer needed in Solaris 8 (2000).
