13 ;; Basic requirements for a standard "gnu build system" build.
14 ;; TODO: Make a variant with a stripped-down environment,
15 ;; perhaps using busybox or toybox instead of coreutils and friends.
16 ;; TODO: Investigate why the syntax error tests fail with bash-minimal.

25 "texlive" ; shouldn't be necessary - standards.texi requires ectt which
26 ; doesn't seem to be in any smaller package
28 ;; All of the compilers and tools that Autoconf is capable of probing.
30 ;; TODO: Make a variant that *doesn't* install any of this
31 ;; and ensure that every test that requires at least one compiler is
32 ;; skipped, rather than failing, when run in that environment. Currently
33 ;; lots of tests fail in the absence of a C compiler.
35 ;; TODO: Investigate why "gcc-toolchain" produces a working compiler,
36 ;; and "ld-wrapper" "binutils" "gcc" doesn't, when the former is
37 ;; supposedly just a dependency package that pulls in the latter three.
38 ;; (It probably has something to do with how "gcc-toolchain" also pulls
39 ;; half a dozen "boot" packages that shouldn't be necessary at all,
40 ;; even though these are not listed in its dependencies.)
