The "action" parameters for these two tests were supplied incorrectly for
the way the tests were implemented. The tests check whether a program
which calls hstrerror() or basename() successfully links when -lresolv or
-lgen are used, respectively. A successful linking would result in
NEEDS_RESOLV or NEEDS_LIBGEN being unset, and failure would result in
setting the respective variable.
Aside from that issue, the tests did not handle the case where neither
library was necessary for accessing the functions in question. So solve
both of these issues by re-working the two tests so that their form is like
the NEEDS_SOCKET test which attempts to link with just the c library, and
if it fails then assumes that the additional library is necessary and sets
the appropriate variable.
Also an entry in the config.mak.in file is necessary for the NEEDS_LIBGEN
variable to appear in the config.mak.autogen file with the value assigned
by the configure script. Without it, the generated shell script would
contain a snippet like this:
for ac_lib in ; do
...
which is incorrect.

GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
