Hi,
at GnuTLS we have one git submodule that is not 'active' by default -
this is on purpose since we want to init it just in certain cases.
The latest 'bootstrap' script doesn't accept this and stops with an error:
"./bootstrap: some git submodules are not initialized. Run 'git
submodule init' and bootstrap again."
The breaking change in 'bootstrap' is:
+# Don't proceed if there are uninitialized submodules. In particular,
+# the next step will remove dangling links, which might be links into
+# uninitialized submodules.
+#
+# Uninitialized submodules are listed with an initial dash.
+if $use_git && git submodule | grep '^-' >/dev/null; then
+ die "some git submodules are not initialized. " \
+ "Run 'git submodule init' and bootstrap again."
+fi
Currently I just commented out these lines, but a proper mechanism would
be nice.
Regards, Tim
