Fix building ngIRCd with OpenSSL 1.1

2016-12-05T22:51:07+00:00

At the moment, ngIRCd fails to build against OpenSSL 1.1 since the configure check probes for the SSL_library_init symbol which was removed, but probing for a different function availabe in both versions solves that problem: SSL_new(). And as SSL_library_init is no longer needed, the patch boils down to probing SSL_new to assert libssl is available, and disabling the SSL_library_init invokation from OpenSSL 1.1 on, see also another application[1] (NSCA-ng) that did pretty much the same. Patch was compile-tested on both Debian jessie (OpenSSL 1.0.2) and stretch (OpenSSL 1.1). [1] (Patch by Christoph, commit message cherry-picked from the email thread on the mailing list by Alex. Thanks!)

Make setgroups(3) function optional

2015-06-06T20:19:47+00:00

For example, Interix is missing this function, which prevented ngIRCd to build on this platform. When setgroups(3) isn't available, a warning message is issued when ngIRCd starts up.

configure[.ng]: is a required header file

2014-03-16T23:52:11+00:00

ngIRCd already includes in a lot of places without checking for its existence (for example in "ngircd.c", "io.c", ...), therefore make it a required header file.

configure: Only link "contrib/Debian" if it exists

2014-01-26T22:41:06+00:00

This isn't the case on "VPATH builds", for example.

Use $(MKDIR_P) instead of $(mkinstalldirs) in Makefile's

2014-01-17T20:04:40+00:00

And test for "mkdir -p" using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in "configure".

Fix configure script and "make check" for TCP Wrappers

2014-01-17T15:18:55+00:00

Add missing #include's and static variables. Problem spotted on OpenBSD.

Add libwrap at the end of the configure run

2014-01-17T15:16:37+00:00

If libwrap becomes added earlier, other tests may fail because of not all external variables required by libwrap are available when linking: for example allow_severity and deny_severity. This patch adds generic support for the LDFLAGS_END and LIBS_END variables (CFLAGS_END has been implemented already). Problem spotted on OpenBSD.

Partially revert bc098794: don't require autoconf 2.67

2014-01-04T22:12:56+00:00

GNU autoconf 2.61 is still sufficient to generate the configure script, even after updating configure.{ng|in}, so don't require a newer version.

Update configure.ng for autoconf 2.67

2014-01-02T14:33:39+00:00

We already require GNU autoconf 2.67 for generating our build system (at least this is what the INSTALL document states), so update the build system accordingly and implement all changes that autoupdate(1) suggests: - Update AC_PREREQ and AC_INIT - Use AC_LINK_IFELSE, AC_RUN_IFELSE, and AC_COMPILE_IFELSE - Remove AC_TYPE_SIGNAL (we don't use RETSIGTYPE)
