There are very few places where we actually use floating point
or #include <math.h>.
Drop that library, although we very likely still get it as indirect
dependency (e.g. on my system it is still dragged in by libsystemd.so,
libudev.so and libnl-3.so).
With --enable-introspection we generate various targets that either
require perl or xsltproc. Error out when building with introspection
enabled but the programs are not found.
The only reliable way of setting a MAC address for the team is through
the "hwaddr" property in the configuration passed to teamd. In order
to rewrite the configuration we need Jansson support; since it is
already a requirement for teamd, let the team plugin depend on it.
If configure is called without --enable-json-validation or
--disable-json-validation, let's automatically choose a value
depending on the availability of the library.
Otherwise, substitions are not properly expanded.
For example
- "AC_SUBST(nmrundir, '${runstatedir}'/$PACKAGE, [NetworkManager runtime state directory])"
gives ${runstatedir}/NetworkManager/resolv.conf
- "AC_SUBST(nmrundir, "${runstatedir}/$PACKAGE", [NetworkManager runtime state directory])"
gives ${prefix}/var/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf
The purpose of "rc-manager=symlink" is so that the administrator can point
the "/etc/resolv.conf" as a symlink to a certain file, and thus indicating
that a certain component is responsible to manage resolv.conf, while others
should stay away from it.
For example, systemd-resolved never touches "/etc/resolv.conf", but
expects the admin to setup the symlink appropriately. It also recognizes
whether the symlink points to it's own resolv.conf in /run or to another
component.
Previously, "rc-manager=symlink" would always replace a regular file
with a symlink to "/var/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf". Only if
"/etc/resolv.conf" is already a symlink somewhere else, NM would not
touch it. This with the exception that if "/etc/resolv.conf" points to
"/var/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf", it would replace the symlink
with the same link to raise inotify events.
Change behavior so if "/etc/resolv.conf" is already a regular file, keep
it as file.
This means, if you have multiple components that don't care, everybody
can write the "/etc/resolv.conf" (as file) and there is no clear
expressed responsibility.
It was wrong that NetworkManager would convert the file to a symlink,
this should be reserved to the admin. Instead, NetworkManager should
accept that the intent is unspecified and preserve the regular file.
It's up to the admin to replace the symlink to somewhere else (to keep
NM off), or to point it to "/var/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf", to show
the explicit intent.
The wrong behavior causes dangling symlinks when somebody disables
NetworkManager for good.

Building the man pages via xsltproc requires "docbook.xsl"
which is part of docbook.
Previously, we would build the man pages solely based on
"--enable-introspection", which checks for the presence of
xsltproc, but not docbook. This can lead to build failure
when docbook is not available, but "--enable-introspection"
is given.
Instead of adding yet another configure option to fine-tune
and say "--with-docbook --disable-gtk-doc", just simplify it.
Now, documentation (both man pages and setting docs) will be generated
with "--enable-gtk-doc" and "--enable-introspection".
If the documentation is not about to be generated, pre-generated docs
will be installed if they are available. That is commonly the case
with a source tarball, but not with a git checkout.
Finally, if documentation is nither generated nor pre-generated,
no documentation will be installed *duh*.
This removes the possibility to treat man pages separate from settings
docs. Now you either generate both, install both pre-generated, or don't
get any of them.

`nm` is used by "tools/create-exports-NetworkManager.sh" script.
Alloc configuring an explicit path during configure.
BINUTILS_NM=/usr/bin/nm ./configure
After 1.6.0 is released, merge it back into master so that
1.6.0 is part of the history of master. That means,
$ git log --first-parent master
will also traverse 1.6.0 and 1.6-rc*.
Also bump the micro version to 1.7.1-dev to indicate that this is
after 1.6.0 is out.
As build-requirement, we either require
- python2 with python-gobject-base
- python3 with python3-gobject-base
Previously, we would require that a plain `python` gives the desired
interpreter version.
If somebody's "/usr/bin/env python" however points to a different
python version, there was no easy way to change it -- aside
resetting the $PATH variable to some desired "python" binary.
Now, you can specify it during configure:
./configure PYTHON=python3 ...
This especially matters, if you only have python3-gobject-base
installed, you /usr/bin/python is a symlink to python2.

- `make dist` requires --enable-gtk-doc --enable-introspection --with-libnm-glib
- --enable-gtk-doc requires --enable-introspection
- --with-nmcli requires either --enable-introspection or pregenerated
settings-docs.c files from the dist tarball. It does not require
--enable-gtk-doc.
There is a bit of a problem in that --enable-introspection requires
now xsltproc. However, gobject-introspection does itself not depend
on xsltproc. So, more correct might be a special --enable-doc argument,
that combines --enable-introspection --with-xsltproc. Anyway, that
seems to make it more complicated then it already is so just implicitly
(and surprisingly?) require xsltproc with --enable-introspection.

"clients/cli/settings-docs.c" is only required for nmcli. Makefile.am will
check for the existance of the file during the build.
It doesn't matter for SETTING_DOCS_AVAILABLE.
There is on configure option to select for the use of pygobject.
We don't need it. If a user selects --enable-gtk-doc and
--with-introspection, we want to BUILD_SETTING_DOCS.
In this case, just require the python library too.
There is an strange automake warning
Makefile.vapigen:49: warning: $(1) was already defined in condition TRUE, which includes condition ENABLE_VAPIGEN ...
Makefile.am:4: 'Makefile.vapigen' included from here
Makefile.glib:124: ... '$(1)' previously defined here
Makefile.am:1: 'Makefile.glib' included from here
when having
if ENABLE_VAPIGEN
include Makefile.vapigen
endif
That is worked around by removing the "if", which however
requires us to remove the error check in Makefile.vapigen.
