+long_desc="
+ GNU m4 is an implementation of the traditional UNIX macro
+ processor. It is mostly SVR4 compatible, although it has some
+ extensions (for example, handling more than 9 positional parameters to
+ macros). m4 also has builtin functions for including files, running
+ shell commands, doing arithmetic, etc. Autoconf needs GNU m4 for
+ generating configure scripts, but not for running them.
+
+ This package is only meant to be used by xbps-src, don't install it manually."
