Subject: Build: Disallow metapost versions 1.600 <= x < 1.803.
X-Git-Tag: release/2.17.27-1~23
X-Git-Url: https://git.donarmstrong.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=29b05c33ce2a1b0ee671afb52d23a40e5fb26a39;p=lilypond.git

Build: Disallow metapost versions 1.600 <= x < 1.803.

Add a check in ./configure to avoid buggy versions of metapost
starting with the rewrite that occured in the 1.600 series and
finally fixed in version 1.803 and later.

Fixes issue 3539: Configure should forbid mpost 1.802 from TexLive 2013
