From b44f6c2f303ef03f563edd159b1c88d1cf118ed5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Yann E. MORIN" Date: Sat, 12 Nov 2022 23:05:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] package/matchbox-starup-monitor: fix build without C++ matchbox-startup-monitor is an ageing package, and uses an old configure.ac with archaic constructs. This had generated a configure script that incorrectly tries to look for and validate a C++ compiler: checking for powerpc64le-buildroot-linux-gnu-g++... no checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no checking whether no accepts -g... no checking dependency style of no... none checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check Calling autoreconf fixes the issue, as the generated configure no longer tries to look for a C++ compiler at all anymore. Running autoreconf does not add any new dependency, as they are already in the dependency chain via other packages.
