gh-112088: Run autoreconf in GHA check_generated_files by vstinner · Pull Request #112090 · python/cpython (original) (raw)

This looks good to me. (I'm a little bit puzzled by the aclocal.m4 and configure changes, but they are also fine.)

I'm not sure if I picked the wrong pkg-config package. But well, for now, my main worry is more to make the whole Python workflow more reliable by avoiding depending on the external quay.io server which had multiple outages in several days.

With my change, the Python workflow no longer pulls an external container image, but simply reuse what's available on Ubuntu 22.04 in the GitHub Action.

IIRC, we did the autoconf version bump before the 3.12 freeze, so IMO we should backport this to 3.12.

Oh. So we cannot backport this change to 3.11?
