From 4803c621d4f907402f29eba8cc3a6515bdda2ee2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergei Trofimovich Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2017 21:20:35 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] configure.ac: fix out-of-tree tests To reproduce the test failure one needs to run configure using absolute path in a directory outside source tree. For example: $ $(pwd)/../libcdio-paranoia/configure $ make $ make check This will cause 'native_abs_top_srcdir' to contain wrong path. It happens because '[]' is an escape in autoconf. As a the following configure.ac snippet: [\\/]* | ?:[\\/]* ) # Absolute name. gets translated into the following shell code: \\/* | ?:\\/* ) # Absolute name. The fix is to change quotes from '[]' for a short while.
