1 2005-06-30  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
3         * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
4         of AC_SUBST.
5         * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
6         Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
7         * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
8         * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
10 2005-06-29  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
12         * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
13         `mkdir -p' does not work.
14         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
15         * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
16         Report from Noah Friedman.
18         * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
19         Report from Karl Berry.
21 2005-06-28  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
22             Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
24         * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
25         * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
26         Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
28 2005-06-24  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
30         * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
31         variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
32         only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
33         variable, not to older helper variables.  This way the order of
34         the items appended to the variable is preserved.
35         * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
36         * tests/cond38.test: New file.
37         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
38         Report from Ed Hartnett.
40 2005-06-22  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
42         * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
44         * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
45         definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
46         generate_makefile.  This superfluous definition introduced long
47         lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
48         line length.  Report from Mathias Froehlich.
50 2005-06-11  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
52         * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

55 2005-06-08  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
57         * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

59         * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
60         * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
61         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
62         Report from Bob Proulx.
64         * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
66 2005-05-24  Brian Gough  <bjg@network-theory.co.uk>  (tiny change)

73         * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
74         with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
75         * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
76         Report from Tom Tromey.

911         * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
912         * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.

1003         Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
1005         * aclocal.in: Use strict and -w.  Declare local variables with `my',
1006         and get rid of `local'.
1007         (scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
1008         at it.
1010         * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1012         * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
1013         from Ralf Wildenhues.
1015 2004-10-31  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1017         * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Augment with an example setup.
1018         (LTLIBOBJ): Rename as ...
1019         (LTLIBOBJS): ... this.  Link to LIBOBJS, and mention LTALLOCA.
1021 2004-10-25  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1023         * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
1024         rendered.
1025         * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1027         * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.

1036         to force the linker selection.
1038         * lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
1039         slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'.  This
1040         caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
1041         * tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
1042         Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.

1046         * automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
1047         by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the

1049         prepend $U to the given extension.
1050         (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
1051         the extension to use.  This way Automake won't mistake a program

1053         * tests/primary3.test: New file.

1063         * tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
1064         so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
1065         * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
1066         to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
1067         AUTOCONF.  This fixes two spurious failures reported by
1068         Mark D. Baushke.
1070         * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.

1090         * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): Check dependency tracking mode for CCAS.
1091         * automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
1092         * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
1093         preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
1095 2004-10-10  Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
1097         * automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into

1107 2004-09-28  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1109         * automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
1110         Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
1111         --mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
1112         (define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
1113         uniformity.
1114         * tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated.  That
1115         was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
1116         compiler to get dependencies from.
1117         Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1119 2004-09-26  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>

1122         * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in

1128         * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use

1523         * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of

1540         of $dir.libs/$base.o.d.  Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
1541         and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
1542         Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
1543         "files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.

1581         is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
1582         (handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
1583         library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.

1601         * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1602         undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with

1604         * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and

1645         (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1646         than errors.

1648         warning instead of an error.
1649         * tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
1650         macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.

1667         * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...

1691         * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to

1696         * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which

1704         * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
1705         Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
1706         parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
1707         references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
