version-etc: extend for packagers Add three new configure options, intended for packagers: --with-packager="packager name" --with-packager-version="packager-specific version" --with-packager-bug-reports="packager bug reporting" An example with coreutils: $ ./configure \ --with-packager=Gentoo \ --with-packager-bug-report=http://bugs.gentoo.org/ \ --with-packager-version="patchset 1.6" $ ./src/ls --version | head -n3 ls (GNU coreutils) 7.1-dirty Packaged by Gentoo (patchset 1.6) Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. Note that the bug reporting info via --help doesn't show up because coreutils uses its own custom emit_bug_reporting_address() implementation in src/system.h. If it didn't, it'd look like: $ ./src/ls --help | tail -n4 Report bugs to <bug-coreutils@gnu.org>. Report Gentoo bugs to <http://bugs.gentoo.org/>. GNU coreutils home page: <http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/>. General help using GNU software: <http://www.gnu.org/gethelp/>. * lib/version-etc.c: Print new information, if provided. * m4/version-etc.m4: New file. * modules/version-etc (Files): Add m4/version-etc.m4. (configure.ac): Add gl_VERSION_ETC. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
