dropping autotools build #301

Closed cgwalters closed 3 weeks ago

cgwalters commented 2 months ago

Since https://github.com/containers/composefs/pull/300 we now have a meson build. I don't know of a strong reason to keep the autotools one around.

This issue tracks the goal of removing it; if you have objections or concerns, please cite them here.

The one thing our meson code doesn't do is generate the .spec from spec.in during dist. It can be done, like so: https://gitlab.com/CentOS/automotive/src/autoinit/-/commit/2d1bbad976e3729faf864c205dd830cd04d7aa68

Otoh, maybe its time to drop the specfile from the tarball instead?
