<p dir="auto">This is just an idea... we have to test it yet.</p>
<p dir="auto">In the CI images, we could manually run the 3 invocations of <code>gnulib-tool</code> to create <code>gl/</code>, <code>lib/unistring/</code> and <code>src/gl/</code>. We can even build the gnulib libraries in there and run the gnulib tests.</p>
<p dir="auto">In the CI runners, we have to <code>cp -a</code> those directories into the <code>gnutls/</code> directory. Then we create ./configure with <code>autoreconf -fi</code> and go on as normal. [We can possibly even avoid this last step as long configure is newer than configure.ac].</p>
<p dir="auto">The gain is at least that we avoid <code>./bootstrap</code>. Still the question, how much weights the 1.x minutes of bootstrapping against the 1,5h of running a pipeline ?</p>
