This (and 2.22) is a first release in many years. Rather than try to use upstream's absurdly overblown, incompatible build system (see below), I added a small-ish meson file. This means: - drop tweaks and dependency on cwautomacros as that is no longer used - drop patch as configure.ac has been rewritten, and the recipe is using meson anyway - drop --disable-iberty for the same reason In this realease, cwautomacros has been replaced by an equally custom, weird set of macros, written by 'which' maintainer: https://github.com/CarloWood/cwm4 - one effect of that is that autoreconf isn't happy with which's configure.ac and won't run; one is supposed to use a custom script instead: https://github.com/CarloWood/cwm4/blob/master/scripts/bootstrap.sh - alas, that script is not shipped in tarballs; the maintainer wants everyone to trust their 200k configure script (hello xz backdoor) - building from git (where the script exists) is not impossible, but that has no version tags All this 'special handling' for what, exactly? Five .c files to produce one single-function executable, and one manpage. Wich should all be in coreutils to begin with. GNU's attachment to autotools defies reason.
