Remove HAVE_LIBPARTED_3_0_0_PLUS definition
The #define only controls whether fat16 and fat32 file systems are moved
by libparted (for versions <= 2.4) or the GParted internal algorithm
(for libparted versions >= 3.0). See this commit for more details:

Enable new fs resize library available with parted-3.1 (#668281)
As nearly all other file system are moved using the GParted internal
algorithm, just always use it to move fat16 and fat32 file systems too.
Bug #734718 - Update Autoconf version specific libparted checks and
defines to feature specific ones
Remove HAVE_LIBPARTED_3_1_0_PLUS definition and replace Autoconf
check for libparted >= 3.1
Currently uses custom check which compiles an executable to check for
libparted version >= 3.1 to determine the availability of the library
parted-fs-resize and the need to include the header <parted/filesys.h>.
Change to use a direct Autoconf check to determine the availability of
the ped_file_system_resize() function in the parted-fs-resize library.
Remove inclusion of the header <parted/filesys.h> as it has always been
included via <parted/parted.h>, at least as far back as parted 1.8.0,
and even in parted 3.0 when ped_file_system_resize() and libparted file
system resize capability didn't exist.

AM_PROG_LIBTOOL is an old name and alias for AC_PROG_LIBTOOL. Update.
NOTE:
In turn AC_PROG_LIBTOOL is an old name and alias for LT_INIT, but
CentOS 5.x with libtool 1.5.22 doesn't have LT_INIT defined in
/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 serial 48, only AC_PROG_LIBTOOL and
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL. Therefore only update to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL and not
LT_INIT while CentOS 5.x is supported.

Currently ./configure passes successfully even if a C++ compiler is not
installed. The first time building the code fails is when make tries
to compile the first C++ source file and the compiler executable is not
found.
Also because there is no C++ compiler the autoconf generated test for
Gtk::Window::set_default_icon_name() will always fail, leaving
HAVE_SET_DEFAULT_ICON_NAME unset. Therefore as well as installing a
C++ compiler, ./configure must be run again to correctly test for
set_default_icon_name().
This is as a result of a little known consequence of having AC_PROG_CC
proceed AC_PROG_CXX in the autoconf file configure.ac.
Subject: AC_PROG_CXX behaviour when no C++ compiler is found
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2010-05/msg00001.html
Reverse the order, placing AC_PROG_CXX before AC_PROG_CC, so that the
generated ./configure script fails with an error if there is no C++
compiler available.
Bug #732803 - ./configure is successful even when C++ compile is missing
Many file systems are capable of growing while mounted, and a few can
even shrink. This support must be explicitly enabled at configure time
with the --enable-online-resize flag and depends on a patched libparted.
Also requires kernel >= 3.6 for partition resizing, even if the
partition is in use (BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION).
Thanks to Mike Fleetwood for double check mark idea instead of a second
column to show the online grow/shrink.
Bug #694622 - Add support for online resize
Add xdg-su to list of graphical switch-to-root programs to be
considered for gparted.desktop file.
The openSUSE GNU/Linux distribution includes the program xdg-su by
default for graphically prompting for root privilege.
This enhancement enables a user to compile and install gparted from
source code on openSUSE and have the gparted menu entry graphically
prompt for root privilege.
Bug #699626 - Enable gparted.desktop to prompt for root on default
openSUSE installation
The autoconf check for the Gtk::Window::set_default_icon_name() method
was failing to detect its availability, but only on Ubuntu >= 11.10.
Turns out that the autoconf check incorrectly defined the link libraries
via the C++ flags variable CXXFLAGS, rather than the LIBS variable.
This resulted in the libraries being specified in the wrong order on the
command line. The test only failed when Ubuntu also added the
"--as-needed" flag to the linker by default [1] which required the
libraries to be correctly specified at the end of the command line.

Only use Gtk::Window::set_default_icon_name method when available
Bug #695279 - GParted doesn't compile on RHEL / CentOS 5.9
Applications are moving away from storing icons in /usr/share/pixmaps,
instead preferring /usr/share/icons/hicolor/$SIZE/apps, so only install
the fallback icon when GParted requires it.
Bug #695279 - GParted doesn't compile on RHEL / CentOS 5.9
Make the generated configure script additionally report these two checks
with their outcome:
checking for gtk_show_uri function... yes
checking for Gtk::MessageDialog::get_message_area() method... yes
1) Require autoconf >= 2.50
(Released May 2001).
2) Rename file to configure.ac
(Recommended with autoconf >= 2.50).
3) Update macro from AC_TRY_RUN to AC_RUN_IFELSE
(As wanted by the autoupdate program).
