Update to the latest version of the AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11 macro from
the Autoconf Archive, Note that the macro now depends on
AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX so this macro has to be included too.
As noted in comments:
1) This is white box testing because it uses implementation knowledge
to look through the API to the internals of the password store.
2) It is not currently possible to test that the passwords are zeroed
when the store is destroyed.
However zeroing of memory is being tested when individual passwords
are erased.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Automake build of libraries creates .dirstamp files. First added by
this commit:
81b104928b
Add building of Google Test libraries (#781978)
Mark .dirstamp as to be ignored by GIT.
An action file is always needed with polkit to describe the privileged
actions that are available to the subject (client program). For GParted
the only available action is to run the gparted shell script as root.
Note that the polkit action file will be installed into location
$(prefix)/share/polkit-1/actions. This is required by the GNU Coding
Standards [1] and to prevent 'make distcheck' from failing [2]. However
polkit only uses /usr/share/polkit-1/actions for it's action files [3].
This dilemma was discussed in this Bugzilla bug 776437 and on the
general Automake discussion email list [4]. The solution is to simply
document in the README file that a manual additional installation step
may be required.
The action file is marked as translatable with the underscore (_) of the
_description and _message tags identifying the string to be translated.
Use of INTLTOOL_POLICY_RULE in Makefile.am to merge translations into
the polkit action file necessitates increasing the minimum version of
intltool to 0.36.0 where it was first introduced in intltool.m4. This
will prevent GParted building on RedHat/CentOS 5 which only has intltool
0.35.0. But that doesn't matter because RedHat/CentOS 5 reached end of
life on 31st March 2017.

"My package needs to populate the installation directory of another
package at install-time. I can easily compute that installation
directory in configure, but if I install files therein,
'make distcheck' fails. How else should I do?"

polkit. Actions correspond to operations that clients can request
the mechanism to carry out and are defined in XML files that the
mechanism installs into the /usr/share/polkit-1/actions directory."

Bug 776437 - GParted fails to run as root under Wayland
So far just tests sending 0 bytes and a few ASCII bytes into a pipe and
that they are read correctly by the PipeCapture class.
Bug 777973 - Segmentation fault on bad disk
As the source code is managed in GIT and there is a .gitignore file in
the top level directory specifying file names to exclude from version
control, then the old per-directory .cvsignore files for CVS are
redundant.
Add the only missing and applicable entry from src/.cvsignore of '.libs'
to .gitignore and remove all the .cvsignore files.
So far only includes tests of the construction of BlockSpecial objects
and the interaction with the internal cache used to reduce the number of
stat(2) calls. Tests have been designed to be runable by non-root users
and assume as little as possible about the environment by discovering
used block device names and symbolic link name.
Bug 781978 - Add Google Test C++ test framework
Now 'make check' will additionally build and run the test suites in the
./tests directory. Add initial always successful dummy test suite.
This is done using Automake support for testing.

./tests/Makefile.am takes some influence from the same file in the
minimal-gtest-autotools template project.

Bug 781978 - Add Google Test C++ test framework
This closely follows the minimal-gtest-autotools template project.
https://github.com/octol/minimal-gtest-autotools
Now 'make check' will additionally build the Google Test C++ test
framework libraries.
Bug 781978 - Add Google Test C++ test framework
Older distributions don't include Autoconf Archive at all and newer
distributions don't always include it. Therefore we have to have a
local copy of the AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11 macro with GParted.
Bug 756035 - GParted does not compile with newer gtkmm libraries in
Fedora 23
For developers to build GParted in a git repository, logging the top
commit and build results to testbuild.log. Intended for use with
git-test-sequence to verify every change of a patch set compiles, but
can be used standalone too.
Example usage:
git-test-sequence origin/master.. testbuild.sh
Further documentation can be found on the GParted web site at page:

Closes Bug #699881 - testbuild.sh - Builds GParted logging results
