The patch we're applying to man_db.conf claims that the variable
@config_file_basename@ will be replaced with the package name, and that
this breaks multilib systems as that causes conflicts.
However, this suggests that both man-db and lib32-man-db are being
installed which is pointless, and the variable expands to the basename
which is just man_db.conf.

Sometimes man will want to call iconv to convert character encodings, so
recommend glibc-utils on glibc systems for that binary.

2.72c is a prerelease version of autoconf 2.73. It contains largefile and y2038 64 bit
time_t improvements for 32 bit architectures.
Rather than work on the older codebase, this brings us to work with the recent
autoconf upstream with the 64 bit changes. It is unclear when upstream will release
2.73 but it is easier for us to be aligned now we've done the bulk of the work needed
to update.
Upstream added several patches which fixed several common failures OE builds ran
into (backported in the next commit). In general testing has otherwise been good for us.
There is an unfortunate gnulib largefile.m4 bug. This change patches various software
to workaround it, next time they update new versions of the gnulib code will be pulled
in which address the issue with the official fix.
There are also a couple of ordering related fixes for apr and libarchive.

An automated conversion using scripts/contrib/convert-spdx-licenses.py to
convert to use the standard SPDX license identifiers. Two recipes in meta-selftest
were not converted as they're that way specifically for testing. A change in
linux-firmware was also skipped and may need a more manual tweak.

Executing a sequence like:
bitbake man-db
bitbake man-db -c clean
bitbake man-db -c package_write_deb -f
results in the ownership of files in the man-db package changing from "man/man"
to "6/12". This is due to base-passwd not being installed in the recipe
sysroot.
Add the missing dependency so even if a recipe "re-packages", the name
of the user/group is found and the packages are reproducible.

The following error appeared at boot.
systemd-tmpfiles[115]: [/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/man-db.conf:1] Unknown user '1w'
By default cache owner is enabled and defaults to 'man'. Users could
supply '--enable-cache-owner=[ARG]' to change the default cache owner.
Using '--disable-cache-owner' leaves the ownership of system-wide
cache files unconstrained, and users will allowed to modify them.
We'd better keep the default behavior, just like other distros do.
I can guess that we used '--disable-cache-owner' to bypass the following
error at do_install.

The 'man' user is provided by base-passwd recipe, so add it to DEPENDS.

Until now oe-core has been using a well obsolete implementation of man.
Man-db on the other hand is used by all modern Linux distros, is actively
maintained, has a standard build system, and does not require 30 patches
to build.
