1 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
3 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
6 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
8 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
10 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
12 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
13 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
15 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
16 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
17 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
18 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
19 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
20 for missing files that can be installed.
21 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
23 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
25 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
26 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
28 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
29 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
30 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
32 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
34 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
35 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
36 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
37 if the usual candidates show up.
39 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
41 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
43 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
45 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
48 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
50 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
51 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
53 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
55 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
56 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
58 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
60 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
61 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
64 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
66 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
68 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
69 New upstream versions.
71 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
73 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
75 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
77 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
78 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
79 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
80 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
81 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
83 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
85 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
86 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
87 Report from Harald Dunkel.
89 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
91 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
92 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
93 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
94 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
96 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
98 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
99 `mkdir -p' does not work.
100 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
101 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
102 Report from Noah Friedman.
104 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
105 Report from Karl Berry.
107 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
108 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
110 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
111 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
112 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
114 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
116 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
117 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
118 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
119 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
120 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
121 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
122 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
123 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
124 Report from Ed Hartnett.
126 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
128 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
130 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
131 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
132 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
133 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
134 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
136 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
138 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
139 Fix redirections in previous patch.
141 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
143 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
144 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
145 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
146 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
147 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
148 Report from Bob Proulx.
150 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
152 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
154 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
156 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
159 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
160 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
161 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
162 Report from Tom Tromey.

875 2004-12-14 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
877 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Englishoes.

885 2004-12-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
887 * automake.in (check_user_variables): New function, extracted
889 (handle_languages): ... here.
890 (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable, define_link_variable):
892 (handle_single_transform): Check _LIBTOOLFLAGS in
893 addition to other per-target flags for Libtool objects.
894 (handle_libtool): Warn if LIBTOOLFLAGS is defined.
895 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Flags, Program and Library Variables,
896 Flag Variables Ordering): Document LIBTOOLFLAGS.
897 * tests/libtool7.test: Check basic support for LIBTOOLFLAGS.
898 * tests/libtool8.test: Make sure Automake warns about LIBTOOLFLAGS

902 2004-12-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
904 * doc/automake.texi (Per-Object Flags): New node.
906 2004-12-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
909 * lib/am/java.am (install-%DIR%JAVA, uninstall-%DIR%JAVA): Do
910 not install *.class if "$(%DIR%_JAVA)" is empty.
911 * tests/java3.test: New file.
912 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
913 Report from Johannes Nicolai.
915 * doc/automake.texi (Java): Mention dist_ and add an example.
916 * tests/java.test: Do actually compile java files and run distcheck.
918 2004-12-08 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com>

921 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm (dir_has_case_matching_file,
922 reset_dir_cache): New functions.
923 * automake.in (handle_dist, require_file_internal): Use them, so
924 that CHANGELOG is not confused with ChangeLog on case-insensitive
925 case-preserving file systems.
926 * tests/hfs.test: New file.
927 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hfs.test.
929 2004-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
931 * lib/mdate-sh: Don't use "set - x`$ls_command /`", as zsh mishandles
932 the spaces inside $ls_command. Problem reported by Loulou Pouchet in
933 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2004-12/msg00074.html>.
934 Don't use "set - x"; plain "set x" is enough, and simplifies debugging.
936 2004-12-05 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio@tiki-lounge.com>
938 * lib/py-compile: Add --destdir switch to py-compile that takes a
939 path argument that is not compiled into the file when byte compiling.
940 * lib/am/python.am: Use the new py-compile arguments to not include
941 DESTDIR in the byte compiled files.
942 * tests/python12.test: Test that DESTDIR won't be byte compiled into
945 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
947 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Typo.
949 * doc/automake.texi: Use @acindex for Autoconf macros, and @vindex
950 for variables (@cvindex was previously used for both). Separate
951 these two indices in the output. Use @code, @file, and @command
952 in @cindex lines wherever appropriate so they render nicely.
954 2004-12-05 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
956 * doc/automake.texi (renamed objects, CVS): Typos.
958 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
960 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering): New section.
961 (User Variables, Program and Library Variables): @xref it.
963 2004-11-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
965 * doc/automake.texi (Conditional Subdirectories): More comments
966 about non-distributed subdirectories.
968 * Makefile.am (maintainer-clean): Check for unescaped @ in manual.
970 2004-11-24 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
972 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Fix typo.
974 2004-11-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
976 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Diagnose abbreviation ambiguous with
978 * automake.in (parse_arguments): Likewise.
979 * tests/aclocal.test, tests/automake.test: Check this.
980 Report from Eric Blake.
982 2004-11-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
984 * automake.in (parse_arguments): Diagnose empty arguments, options
985 with missing argument, and support `--'.

992 Report from Eric Blake.
994 * lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
995 /dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
996 input without supporting --help and --version.
997 * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
998 * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.
999 Report and fix from James Youngman.
1001 2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1003 * aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
1004 (%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
1005 function that uses it.
1007 * aclocal.in (version): Remove initial blank line and reproduce
1008 the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
1010 * aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.
1011 (scan_m4_dirs): New function, extracted from ...
1012 (scan_m4_files): ... here. Call scan_m4_files three times, for each
1014 (scan_file): Take a file type argument to update %file_type.
1015 (write_aclocal): Do not m4_include files that are not of type FT_USER.
1016 * tests/dirlist.test: Make sure m4_include is not used for --acdir
1019 * tests/defs.in (testaclocaldir): New variable.
1020 * tests/aclocal.test: Use it to fix the test. Report from
1023 2004-11-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1025 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
1026 AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
1027 is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
1028 passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
1029 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
1030 so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
1031 * tests/python11.test: New file.
1032 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
1034 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
1035 should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
1037 2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1039 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
1040 * tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
1042 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default
1043 $(datadir)/aclocal. Report from Akim.
1045 2004-11-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1047 * aclocal.in ($acdir): Rename as ...
1048 (@system_includes): ... this.

1050 ($default_acdir, $default_dirlist): Remove.
1051 (parse_arguments): Populate @user_includes, @automake_includes, and
1052 @system_includes instead of filling a unique @dirlist array.
1053 ("MAIN"): Adjust to scan m4 files in @user_includes,
1054 @automake_includes, and @system_includes.
1056 2004-11-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1058 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correct comment. From Akim.
1060 2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1062 * aclocal.in: Use Automake::ChannelDefs, and adjust all output
1063 to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
1064 (version): New function.
1065 (parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
1066 honor -W and --warning.
1068 (trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
1069 for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
1070 unexpected newlines in the output.
1071 * doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
1072 * tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl
1073 warnings about uninitialized variables.
1075 2004-11-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1077 * tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
1078 VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.
1080 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Make sure $map_traced_defs{$m} exists
1081 before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
1082 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1084 2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1086 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
1087 before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
1088 concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
1089 Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
1091 * aclocal.in: Use strict and -w. Declare local variables with `my',
1092 and get rid of `local'.
1093 (scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
1096 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1098 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
1099 from Ralf Wildenhues.
1101 2004-10-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1103 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Augment with an example setup.
1104 (LTLIBOBJ): Rename as ...
1105 (LTLIBOBJS): ... this. Link to LIBOBJS, and mention LTALLOCA.
1107 2004-10-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1109 * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
1111 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1113 * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
1115 2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1117 * tests/distcom3.test: Typo.
1119 2004-10-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1121 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
1122 to force the linker selection.
1124 * lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
1125 slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'. This
1126 caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
1127 * tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
1128 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1130 2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1132 * automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
1133 by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the
1134 target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
1135 prepend $U to the given extension.
1136 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
1137 the extension to use. This way Automake won't mistake a program
1138 named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
1139 * tests/primary3.test: New file.
1140 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
1142 2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1144 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Link to node Extending for examples.
1145 (Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
1146 install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
1148 * configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
1149 * tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
1150 so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
1151 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
1152 to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
1153 AUTOCONF. This fixes two spurious failures reported by
1156 * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
1157 * tests/compile.test: Check for this.
1159 2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1161 * doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
1163 2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)
1164 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1172 * doc/automake.texi (Extending): Typo.
1174 2004-10-10 Martin Waitz <tali@admingilde.org> (tiny change)
1176 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): Check dependency tracking mode for CCAS.
1177 * automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
1178 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
1179 preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
1181 2004-10-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
1183 * automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into
1184 separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
1185 of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
1186 (handle_languages): Fix typo.
1187 (lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
1189 2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1191 * tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
1193 2004-09-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1195 * automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
1196 Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
1197 --mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
1198 (define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
1200 * tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated. That
1201 was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
1202 compiler to get dependencies from.
1203 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1205 2004-09-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1207 * configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
1208 * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
1209 lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
1210 and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
1211 * aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
1212 (scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
1214 * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
1215 two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
1216 like `echo $val | ...`.
1217 * tests/README: Suggest this.
1218 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
1220 2004-09-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1222 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Document -local targets.
1224 2004-09-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1226 * doc/automake.texi: Typos.
1228 2004-09-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1230 * doc/automake.texi (Timeline): Typos and other English mistakes
1231 reported by Jim and Gary.

1247 for their comments on a preliminary version of this, Akim for
1248 digging out some old mails, and Jason Molenda for sending the note
1249 about Automake in Alias to Tom.
1250 (Releases): Rename `ac' to `acl', suggested by Akim.
1252 2004-09-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
1254 * AUTHORS, automake.in, aclocal.in: Add Alexandre Duret-Lutz as

1259 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): New node.
1261 * doc/automake.texi (Dependencies): Link to Dependency Tracking
1263 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Link to GNU make, Sources (for
1264 BUILT_SOURCES), and update the paragraph about the "plan" to
1265 inline dependency tracking with gcc3.
1267 * doc/automake.texi (History): New node.
1268 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): New node, filled with a Texinfo
1269 version of Tom Tromey's ``Dependency Tracking in Automake''
1270 document, initially published on the Automake homepage on
1273 2004-09-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1275 * m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Make sure AC_PROG_CC is never
1276 called after this macro.

1278 tests/subobj.test, tests/subobj4.test, tests/subobj5.test,
1279 tests/subobj6.test: Adjust.
1280 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1282 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (_print_message): Handle uniq_part with
1284 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Set uniq_part so that the
1285 AM_PROG_CC_C_O diagnostic is output only once for subdir objects
1286 and only once for objects with per-target flags.
1288 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Print files and locations
1289 for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
1290 (handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can
1293 * lib/compile, lib/elisp-comp, lib/install-sh, lib/ylwrap: Use $ret
1294 instead of $status which is read-only in Zsh.
1296 2004-09-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1297 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1299 * lib/compile: Preserve spaces in arguments (for example
1300 -DPACKAGE_STRING="foo 0.1").
1301 * tests/compile.test: New file.
1302 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add compile.test.
1304 2004-09-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1306 * automake.in (handle_clean): Sort rm commands output for
1307 mostlyclean-generic, clean-generic, distclean-generic, and
1308 maintainer-clean-generic.
1309 Report from Bob Friesenhahn.
1311 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Do not require AM_PROG_CC_C_O for
1313 (handle_single_transform): Pass nonansi_obj to &$subr so
1314 lang_c_rewrite can distinguish libtool objects.
1315 * tests/libtool7.test: Use subdir-objects without using AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1316 Report from Gary V. Vaughan and Patrick Welche.
1318 2004-09-07 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
1320 * automake.in ($PATH_PATTERN): Add `+'.
1322 2004-09-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1324 * tests/missing3.test: New file (check for Paolo's change below).
1325 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add missing3.test.
1327 2004-09-07 Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>
1329 * missing: Handle all command line options together. Add a
1330 separate case statement to detect failed runs, and fail
1331 silently there if --help or --version is passed to the program.
1333 2004-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1335 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1337 For PR automake/433:
1338 * configure.ac (pkgvdatadir): Define using "$PACKAGE", not "automake".
1340 Fix PR automake/432:
1341 * lib/am/yacc.am [!%?MORE-THAN-ONE%]: Replace `#line's in y.tab.h too.
1342 * tests/yacc7.test: Check this.
1344 2004-08-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1346 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (new): Precompute 'string' and 'conds'
1347 in place instead of as a side-effect of calling ->string and ->conds.
1348 This saves method-lookup time, simplify ->string and ->conds, and
1349 allows to create the object only when necessary.
1350 (string, conds): Simplify, now that the result is precomputed.
1352 * automake.in (%am_file_cache): New hash.
1353 (make_paragraphs): Cache .am files with comments stripped to save
1354 some useless input and substitutions.
1356 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_primary_dict): New hash.
1357 (_new, variable_delete): Update %_primary_dict.
1358 (variables): Accept an optional $suffix argument.

1368 2004-08-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1370 Speed up make_paragraphs.
1371 * automake.in (handle_languages): Always define SUBDIROBJ,
1372 DERIVED-EXT, and DIST_SOURCE, because the new transform() will
1373 abort on unknown tokens.
1374 (transform): Rewrite with different semantics.
1375 (make_paragraphs): Make a single pass over the paragraph to
1376 transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as
1379 * automake.in ($libtool_new_api): New variable.
1380 (handle_libtool): Do not libtool's aux files if $libtool_new_api.
1381 (scan_autoconf_traces) <LT_SUPPORTED_TAG>: Set $libtool_new_api.
1382 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE>: Remember only the
1383 first location for required files.
1385 2004-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1387 Support AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE, and fix requirement of AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1388 * automake.in (%required_aux_file): New hash.
1389 (handle_single_transform, lang_c_rewrite): Do not explicitly
1390 require 'compile', this is now an internal detail of
1392 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE and fill
1394 (scan_autoconf_files): Require all %required_aux_file instead
1395 of explicitly requiring install-sh and missing.

1414 * automake.in (yacc_lex_finish_helper): Fix definition of YLWRAP
1415 when ylwrap is installed in a default aux dir found in a parent
1417 * tests/subpkg.test: Augment to check that YLWRAP is installed
1419 * doc/automake.texi (Yacc and Lex): ylwrap is not sought is the
1421 Report from Norman Gray.
1423 2004-08-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1425 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Update documentation for
1426 AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, and AC_CANONICAL_TARGET.
1428 * automake.in (AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM): Replace by ...
1429 (AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_CANONICAL_TARGET): ... these.

1435 Report and test case from Norman Gray.
1437 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1439 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Update "#Extending%20aclocal" URL, makeinfo
1440 4.7 now outputs "#Extending-aclocal".
1442 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1443 Derek R. Price <derek@ximbiot.com>
1445 Disable Lex and Yacc rules whenever possible if AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
1446 is used and maintainer-mode disabled.
1447 * automake.in (Automake::struct): Define nodist_specific.
1448 Set it in languages yacc, yaccxx, lex, and lexxx.

1474 2004-07-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1476 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p
1477 definition, it causes `make install' to fails for user with no
1478 right to write in the source-tree.
1479 * automake.in (handle_configure): Do not use mkdir_p in the
1480 definition for $(mkdir_p).
1481 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1483 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Typo in comment.
1485 2004-07-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1492 * automake.in (check_directory): Quote $dir in regexp.
1494 2004-07-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1496 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8e.

1500 * lib/config-ml.in, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex:
1501 New upstream versions.
1503 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1504 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
1506 * tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
1507 since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
1509 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
1510 that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
1511 reading the generated Makefiles.
1512 * automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
1514 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1515 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
1516 on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
1517 time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
1518 * tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
1519 reported by Akim Demaille.
1521 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...

1523 (Subdirectories, Conditional Subdirectories): ... these.
1524 (Subdirectories): Illustrate the use of `.'.
1525 (Conditional Subdirectories): Describe SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS

1537 (handle_source_transform): Define DIST_SOURCE to tell whether
1538 a the source of a file is distributed or not.
1539 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Check DIST_SOURCE, and do not distribute
1540 the generated header if the .y source is not distributed.
1541 * tests/pr204.test: Use AM_YFLAGS = -d and make sure generated
1542 headers are not distributed.
1544 2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)
1546 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Improve ustar file name length
1547 discussion. Reference tar manual.

1553 2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1555 For PR automake/428:
1556 Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
1557 * automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
1558 (handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
1559 handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
1560 adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
1561 it is always defined an phony.
1562 * tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
1563 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1564 Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
1566 2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1568 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
1569 /tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
1570 * lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
1571 has been moribund for a decade.
1572 Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
1573 -c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
1574 compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
1575 Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
1576 Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
1577 * tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
1578 moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
1580 2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1582 For Debian Bug#254372:
1583 * doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
1584 explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
1586 2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1588 For Debian Bug #251820:
1589 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
1590 file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
1591 Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
1592 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
1593 * tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
1595 2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1597 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
1598 so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
1599 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1601 2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1603 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
1604 bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
1605 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1607 2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1609 * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
1610 `-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
1611 * tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
1612 depmod=gcc otherwise.
1613 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1615 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
1616 `rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
1617 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1619 2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1621 * NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
1623 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1625 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
1626 of $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
1627 and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
1628 Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
1629 "files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.
1630 Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
1632 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
1633 nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
1635 (Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
1636 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1638 2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1640 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
1642 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
1644 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
1645 by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
1647 * tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
1649 * lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
1650 multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
1651 by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
1653 2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1655 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
1656 instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
1658 * tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
1659 Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
1661 * tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
1663 * NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
1665 * automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
1666 non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
1667 is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
1668 (handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
1669 library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.
1670 * tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
1673 Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
1674 to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
1675 restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
1677 * automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
1678 handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
1679 (check_directories_in_var): New function.
1680 (handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
1681 suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
1682 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
1683 to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
1684 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
1685 cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
1686 (Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
1687 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1688 undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
1689 skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
1690 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
1691 top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
1692 `..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
1693 * tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
1694 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
1695 * tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
1698 2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
1700 * tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
1701 cygwin compatibility.
1702 * tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
1704 * tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
1705 a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
1707 2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1709 * m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
1710 * tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
1712 * tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
1713 contains the macro name.
1714 Report from Volker Boerchers.
1716 2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1718 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1720 2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1722 * automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
1723 the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
1724 * tests/clean2.test: New file.
1725 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
1726 Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
1728 * aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
1729 macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
1730 already diagnoses them.
1731 (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1733 * tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
1734 warning instead of an error.
1735 * tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
1736 macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.
1737 * tests/acloca17.test: New file.
1738 * tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
1739 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
1740 Report from Jim Meyering.
1742 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1743 Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
1744 Suggested by Karl Berry.
1746 * automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
1747 diagnostics when no input file is found.
1748 * tests/output5.test: Adjust.
1749 Suggested by Jens Petersen.
1751 2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1753 * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
1754 * automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
1755 output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.
1756 * tests/ar2.test: New file.
1757 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1758 Report from Kevin Ryde.
1760 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1765 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
1766 * tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
1767 Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
1768 in spite of the error.
1769 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1771 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
1772 doubled word in footnote.
1774 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
1775 $(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
1776 Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
1777 * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
1778 $(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
1780 2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1782 * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
1783 uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
1784 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
1785 * lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
1786 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
1788 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1790 * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
1791 Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
1792 parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
1793 references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
1794 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1796 2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1798 * tests/defs.in (GNUmake): Grep for GNU to parry FreeBSD make.
1799 Report from Mark D. Baushke.

1811 * automake.in (check_typos): Clarify the diagnostic.
1812 * tests/warnopts.test: Adjust.
1814 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Turn VAR_ASIS variables into
1815 VAR_PRETTY variables to work around make implementation with
1816 limited line length, such as OSF1/Tru64 make.
1817 * tests/longline.test: New file.
1818 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1819 * tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
1820 Report from Simon Josefsson.
1822 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
1823 --etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it
1824 creates the TAGS file anyway.
1825 Report from Akim Demaille.
1827 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Nicolas Joly reported on
1828 2002-06-12 that dependencies were output in $dir.libs/$base.lo.d.
1829 Teun Burgers reported on 2004-03-30 they were in
1830 $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Try both.

2373 Do not output .lo rules for programs and static libraries objects,
2374 and do not output .o/.obj rules for libtool libraries. This is
2375 about explicit rules only, not inference rules.
2376 * automake.in (handle_single_transform_list): Rename as ...
2377 (handle_single_transform): ... this. Take a single file
2378 to transform (it was only called this way) and accept a new
2379 %transform argument. Fill %lang_specific_files with list
2380 references instead of strings, and append %transform to each
2382 (define_objects_from_sources, handle_source_transform):
2383 Take a %transform argument, and forward it to &handle_single_transform.
2384 (handle_languages): Adjust to the new format of
2385 %lang_specific_files, and honor its %transform part.
2386 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Override
2387 %NONLIBTOOL% and %LIBTOOL% while calling handle_source_transform.
2388 (make_paragraphs): Define %NONLIBTOOL% by default. Make sure
2389 %transform settings override global settings.
2390 * lib/am/depend2.am (%OBJ%, %OBJOBJ%): Define only if %NONLIBTOOL%.
2391 * tests/libtool3.test: Augment to check Makefile.ins for unneeded
2393 Suggested by Thomas Fitzsimmons.
2395 * automake.in, aclocal.in: Bump copyright years.
