Hi,
as some projects are moving to automake 1.15, I added the component to my
oi-userland tree and did some testing. Alexander also tested further some
Gnome applications.

The current results can be found on this page:

http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Automake+1.15

You can see that so far 67 out of 106 components are reported to be OK but
some components are broken due to (backward) incompatiblities.

If you are a consumer of the following components or "just" interested in
helping out, could you please try to patch and test them so that they stay
functional in oi-userland or work on an update to a newer version if
possible ?

- ORBit2 2.14.19 (latest version, needs patches)
- avahi 0.6.31 (latest version, needs patches, maybe look at
https://github.com/Distrotech/avahi)
- evolution 2.32.3 (needs patches)
- gdm 2.30.7 (needs bump to 2.32.0)
- gksu 2.0.2 (needs patches)
- gnome-netstatus (needs patches)
- gnome-system-tools (needs patches)
- gnome-vfs (needs patches)
- libmng 1.0.10 (ancient, needs bump, latest is 2.0.3
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libmng/)
- librsvg 2.36.4 (ancient, needs bump, latest is 2.40.9
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/librsvg/2.40/)
- libwnck 2.30.7 (needs patches and/or could be bumped
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libwnck/2.31/)
- libxslt 1.1.28 (latest version, needs patches)
- popt 1.7 (needs bump to 1.16 http://rpm5.org/files/popt/popt-1.16.tar.gz)

Best regards,

Aurélien
