buildconf: remove -print from the find command that removes files

2020-06-10T21:40:00+00:00

It's just too annoying and unnecessary to get a long list of files shown

Revert "buildconf: use find -execdir"

2020-05-29T15:37:24+00:00

This partially reverts commit c712009838f44211958854de431315586995bc61.

Keep the ares_ files removed but bring back the older way to run find,
to make it work with busybox's find, as apparently that's being used.

buildconf: avoid using tempfile when removing files

2020-04-15T10:53:53+00:00

Closes #5213

includes: remove curl/curlbuild.h and curl/curlrules.h

2017-06-14T09:07:33+00:00

Rely entirely on curl/system.h now.

Introduced in Aug 2008 with commit 14240e9e109f. Now gone.

Fixes #1456

buildconf: fix hang on IRIX

2017-05-06T22:09:27+00:00

Apparently, /usr/bin/m4 ignores the --version parameter and waits for
input from stdin.

Fixes #1471

URLs: change all http:// URLs to https://

configure: remove missing and make it autogenerate

2015-04-30T16:40:35+00:00

The missing file has not been autogenerated because a temporary fix was
employed in acinclude.m4 which blocked update. Removed that fix and a recent
version of missing is copied to build root.

configure: remove --automake from libtoolize call

2015-04-30T06:58:09+00:00

That option is not mentioned in the man page of libtoolize 2.4.4.19-fda4.
Moveover, a comment in line 2623 says "--automake is for 1.5 compatibility".

This option is redundant now.

configure: remove autogenerated files by autoconf

2015-04-30T06:24:53+00:00

* install-sh is always regenerated
* mkinstalldirs was already redudant years ago. Automake uses install for
  that. See: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2007-03/msg00015.html
