@alanc @josephholsten @dalias there are only two possibilities: either we rewrite autoconf or we remove it.

Both are difficult, but the good news is that are possible (something impossible before the “Linux wave” we’re still riding)

But I don’t know what is easier.

@josephholsten @rogersm @alanc @dalias posix shells are terrifying indeed.

For autoconf replacement, we cannot expect to be 100% compatible, just good enough to migrate from the current mess.

@thomasfuchs but car contamination are not only greenhouse gases. Also is a kind of pollution that happens where the majority of the world population lives: cities.
