Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) -- from April 2012 to April 2017.
It's more and more difficult to keep code and tests in all details
compatible with it 4 years dead distro.

For weeks we have a problem with timeout on OSX on travis, not sure
how to fix it ... volunteer wanted :-)
==> ./bootstrap --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/cmake/3.19.1 --no-system-libs --paral
==> make
No output has been received in the last 10m0s, this potentially indicates a stalled build or something wrong with the build itself.
Check the details on how to adjust your build configuration on: https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/common-build-problems/#Build-times-out-because-no-output-was-received
The build has been terminated

* 'coverity' of https://github.com/evverx/util-linux:
docs: mention Coverity Scan and the Fossies codespell report
travis: integrate util-linux with Coverity Scan
To judge from fc412fe4ce, back in 2016 it was the latest version
of Ubuntu available on Travis CI. Now build tools there are too old
for testing purposes.
Other than that, Ubuntu Trusty hasn't been supported at https://apt.llvm.org/
since August 2019, which makes it kind of hard at this point to bring the latest clang
along with ASan, UBsan, Msan and libFuzzer to Travis CI.
This is just to make the diff to my private travis script a bit smaller.
Now we always use $CC _after_ the install script which makes it possible
to install/update the compiler in the install section.

Of course OSX is not an important target but since it's available on
travis we can (mis)use it to generally improve non-Linux and non-GNU
compatibility. People are using musl, busybox or whatever and
util-linux should work for them. Having OSX build running regularly
will help us to freeze the lately improved BSD compatibility and
to check code which is usually ifdef'ed.
We are using the most recent OSX 10.11.x / Xcode 7.3 though the older
travis OSX images are working too currently.
If it turns out that this OSX build is too annoying when we are about
to add support for latest Linux features then we could add:
allow_failures:
- os: osx
to let it fail silently.
Note I've tried hard to keep .travis-functions.sh readable for the
Linux case. I've removed --with-python because it's default anyway,
--enable-gtk-doc is still tested in discheck.
OSX root check would also work (almost, using another --prefix) but
would only run one more test yet (minix).
OSX distcheck would have some issues with conditionally built man
pages and does not work with default distcheck confopts. No need to
fix that because distcheck is more for maintainer machines.
BTW to increase travis build speed again we could remove some targets
from the matrix without losing tested scenarios:
- nonroot for Linux seems to be waste of time
- clang/Linux could be root check only
For now we keep it as is.

Now we have a reasonable recent build system with systemd, etc. We still
keep old Ubuntu 12.04 Precise to check backward compatibility but
remove the hack to install socat.
Note the new env variable PRECISE="yes" is only there to see it on travis
website.

Since a few days travis workers seem to export broken PYTHON_CFLAGS
and automake's python detection fails.

Now this snippet can be re-used by non-travis systems. For example
on drone.io we can use this simple build script:
......
MAKE_CHECK="root"
source ./.travis-functions.sh
travis_install_script || exit
travis_before_script || exit
ret=0
travis_script || ret=$?
travis_after_script
exit $ret
......

Travis yaml syntax, where we can only use shell one-liners, is awful
and ugly. We add a real shell script and source it from .travis.yml.
This commit squashes a lot changes because we don't want to pollute
history with this meta CI stuff.
Highlights of this commit:
- enable make distcheck
- cleanup configure options (enable all progs, with python and docs)
- shorter config.log dump
- out-of-tree build supported
- workaround broken libtool on travis host
- now it's easy to add temporary debugging stuff
- testing locally is possible now
What are we testing now:
- gcc and clang compiler
- configure mostly with --enable-all-programs, --with-python and
--enable-gtk-doc
- make check with and without root permissions
- make distcheck
- make install (with and without --prefix as well as DESTDIR=...)
- usually we always build in-tree but distcheck does out-of-tree
What do we want/expect at all:
- This travis setup is intended to always work without fixing or
updating this build script all the time. Thats why we only use a
few configure flags.
- We want to avoid predictable failures on travis host to not make
developers tired of this machinery. Any tested feature which is
known to be (sometimes) broken should be fixed or skipped as soon
as possible.
- If this works like wanted then in future almost any point in master
commit history should at least survive the build and common tests
on this reference host/arch. Moreover we will have a comparable,
deterministic build log history. This could make bisecting real
bugs easier.
- It's not our goal to test any kind of config flags, host setup and
arch combination. This would be done better by external build
scripts which do not live within the project itself.
- Of course this machinery can be also used to reproduce bugs with
more exotic config and host setup by pushing a debug branch with
modified travis script to github.

.travis.yml is used for automatic builds on travis build farm
(https://travis-ci.org/) if the travis service hook is enabled for the
repo on github.
This inital yaml controller will run 2 different compilers (gcc, clang).
The test suite currently fails, that's why we don't abort yet.
