The = code changes themselves apply without problems, however, I also need to create a diff for configure and other generated build files. If I just use whatever distro I have at hand for this, there will be a lot of noise from autoconf and automake version mismatch, so I'm trying to figure out which exact versions were used for the 1.9 release. I'm observing a few surprising things, and it would be great if someone could help me resolve them and get to the point where I can reproduce the 1.9 release from git sources: - The released ./Makefile.in contains: distdir-am: $(DISTFILES) which means that automake version used contained the commit ac47c2: "make dist" did not depend on $(BUILT_SOURCES) from Nov 28 2017. At the same time, the released ./build-aux/ar-lib contains: # Copyright (C) 2010-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc. which means that automake must have been older than commit d8add5: maint: Update copyright years to 2017. from Mar 2 2017. This is clearly impossible, and the only other version indication that I could find is: Makefile.in generated by automake 1.15a which does not really help, since this correspond to a lot of commits. Can it be that a private branch was used? - The released ./configure contains: Generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69.193-8974 However, 8974 is not an existing commit id. Again, would it be correct to assume that this is coming from a private branch? The closest version I could come up with is 2.69.193-dfb0. - The am__DIST_COMMON list in the released ./Makefile.in contains build-aux/ar-lib. However, there is no AM_PROG_AR or similar macros in the released ./configure.ac. When I do `make dist`, it is not generated. Where is it supposed to come from? - The released ./aclocal.m4 contains: # po.m4 serial 24 (gettext-0.19) However, the released ./configure.ac does not contain AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION - where is po.m4 coming from?

This is not something I'd normally worry about, any more than I'd normally worry about exactly what x86-64 code gets generated by my C compiler. Jim Meyering (who created the release) had his own platform with reasonably-bleeding-edge tools, not all of which correspond to any particular GNU release. He might be able to fill you in with the details, but this sort of thing is kinda low priority so I wouldn't expect a quick answer (and even he might not know the answer). I skipped most of your questions, except for: > where is po.m4 coming from? I think it comes from Gnulib, and is filled in by './bootstrap'.
