* README-hacking: Add a little more high level info and
merge notes on specific developer prerequisites into README-prereq
* README-prereq: Remove the Fedora 8 specific information
and generalize the information to be applicable to any system.
* README-prereq: Mention new requirement on automake-1.11,
with its new location and updated dependency on autoconf-2.62.
Remove the reference to coreutils-7.0 so that this file
implicitly refers to the latest or release version of coreutils.
Fix and clarify the instructions for updating the $PATH.
Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>
* README-prereq: Reverse order of -b/--track options.
Pádraig Brady mentioned that is required with at least git-1.5.3.6.
Invoke automake's own bootstrap script.
* README-prereq: coreutils currently requires an unreleased
version of Automake, so mention the minimum version of Autoconf
required to build that. Suggestion from James Youngman.
Prompted by a report from Ed Avis:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14710>
* README-hacking: Organise LZMA and Valgrind as
as optional requirements rather than in their own sections.
Mention bootstrap will now check tool versions.
* README-prereq: Make a start on specific instructions
for optaining build tools. Currently we just have notes
for Fedora linux.
* bootstrap.conf: Add the list of tools and versions required.
* bootstrap: Add the logic to check for the required tools,
and list all required tools and versions if any are missing.
