1 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
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%):
53 Fix redirections in previous patch.
55 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
57 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
58 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
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)
68 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
70 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
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.

331 subdir-objects and an invocation of AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.
333 2005-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
335 * doc/automake.texi (Dist): Correct English.

906 Report from Eric Blake.
908 * lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
909 /dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
910 input without supporting --help and --version.
911 * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
912 * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.
913 Report and fix from James Youngman.
915 2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
917 * aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
918 (%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
919 function that uses it.
921 * aclocal.in (version): Remove initial blank line and reproduce
922 the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
924 * aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.
925 (scan_m4_dirs): New function, extracted from ...

939 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
940 AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
941 is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
942 passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
943 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
944 so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
945 * tests/python11.test: New file.
946 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
948 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
949 should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
951 2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
953 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
954 * tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
956 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default

974 2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

977 to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
978 (version): New function.
979 (parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
980 honor -W and --warning.
982 (trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
983 for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
984 unexpected newlines in the output.
985 * doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
986 * tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl

991 * tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
992 VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.

995 before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
996 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
998 2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1000 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
1001 before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
1002 concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
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
1010 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1012 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections

1023 * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
1025 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1027 * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
1029 2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1035 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
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.
1044 2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
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
1048 target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
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
1052 named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
1053 * tests/primary3.test: New file.
1054 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
1056 2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1059 (Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
1060 install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
1062 * configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
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
1070 * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
1071 * tests/compile.test: Check for this.
1073 2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1075 * doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
1077 2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)

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
1098 separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
1099 of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
1100 (handle_languages): Fix typo.
1101 (lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
1103 2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1105 * tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
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
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>
1121 * configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
1122 * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
1123 lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
1124 and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
1125 * aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
1126 (scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
1128 * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
1129 two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
1130 like `echo $val | ...`.
1131 * tests/README: Suggest this.
1132 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.

1196 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (_print_message): Handle uniq_part with
1198 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Set uniq_part so that the
1199 AM_PROG_CC_C_O diagnostic is output only once for subdir objects
1200 and only once for objects with per-target flags.
1202 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Print files and locations
1203 for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
1204 (handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can

1241 2004-09-07 Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>

1244 separate case statement to detect failed runs, and fail
1245 silently there if --help or --version is passed to the program.
1247 2004-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1266 * automake.in (%am_file_cache): New hash.

1287 abort on unknown tokens.
1288 (transform): Rewrite with different semantics.
1289 (make_paragraphs): Make a single pass over the paragraph to
1290 transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as

1317 are used with C sources.
1318 * m4/minuso.m4: Require `compile' using AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1319 * m4/missing.m4: Require `missing' similarly.

1321 tests/specflg.test, tests/specflg2.test, tests/specflg3.test,
1322 tests/specflg6.test, tests/specflg7.test, tests/specflg8.test,

1388 2004-07-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1390 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p
1391 definition, it causes `make install' to fails for user with no
1392 right to write in the source-tree.
1393 * automake.in (handle_configure): Do not use mkdir_p in the
1394 definition for $(mkdir_p).
1395 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1397 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Typo in comment.
1399 2004-07-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1401 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Typo in example.
1402 Report from Ulrich Eckhardt.

1406 * automake.in (check_directory): Quote $dir in regexp.
1408 2004-07-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1410 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8e.
1412 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8d.
1414 * lib/config-ml.in, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex:
1415 New upstream versions.
1417 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1418 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
1420 * tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
1421 since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
1423 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
1424 that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
1425 reading the generated Makefiles.
1426 * automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
1428 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1429 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
1430 on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
1431 time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
1432 * tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
1433 reported by Akim Demaille.
1435 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...
1436 (Directories): ... this, and split into ...
1437 (Subdirectories, Conditional Subdirectories): ... these.
1438 (Subdirectories): Illustrate the use of `.'.
1439 (Conditional Subdirectories): Describe SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS
1440 before the example. Append a discussion about non-configured
1441 conditional directories.
1442 (Alternative): Move as a child of Directories.
1443 (Subpackages): New section.
1444 (Dist): Adjust links to Subdirectories, a Subpackages.
1445 (Third-Party Makefiles): Link to Conditional Subdirectories.
1447 2004-07-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1449 * automake.in (target_hook): Accept %transform as last argument.
1450 (handle_single_transform): Pass %transform to target_hook.
1451 (handle_source_transform): Define DIST_SOURCE to tell whether
1452 a the source of a file is distributed or not.
1453 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Check DIST_SOURCE, and do not distribute
1454 the generated header if the .y source is not distributed.
1455 * tests/pr204.test: Use AM_YFLAGS = -d and make sure generated
1456 headers are not distributed.
1458 2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)
1460 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Improve ustar file name length
1461 discussion. Reference tar manual.
1463 2004-07-12 Ray Simard <rhs.techlists@sylvan-glade.com> (tiny change)
1465 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Fix precondition check.
1467 2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1469 For PR automake/428:
1470 Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
1471 * automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
1472 (handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
1473 handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
1474 adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
1475 it is always defined an phony.
1476 * tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
1477 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1478 Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
1480 2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1482 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
1483 /tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
1484 * lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
1485 has been moribund for a decade.
1486 Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
1487 -c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
1488 compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
1489 Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
1490 Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
1491 * tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
1492 moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
1494 2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1496 For Debian Bug#254372:
1497 * doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
1498 explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
1500 2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1502 For Debian Bug #251820:
1503 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
1504 file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
1505 Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
1506 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
1507 * tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
1509 2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1511 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
1512 so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
1513 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1515 2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1517 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
1518 bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
1519 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1521 2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1523 * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
1524 `-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
1525 * tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
1526 depmod=gcc otherwise.
1527 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1529 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
1530 `rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
1531 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1533 2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1535 * NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
1537 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1539 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
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.
1544 Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
1546 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
1547 nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
1549 (Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
1550 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1552 2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1554 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
1556 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
1558 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
1559 by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
1561 * tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
1563 * lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
1564 multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
1565 by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
1567 2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1569 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
1570 instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
1572 * tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
1573 Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
1575 * tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
1577 * NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
1579 * automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
1580 non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
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.
1584 * tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
1587 Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
1588 to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
1589 restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
1591 * automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
1592 handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
1593 (check_directories_in_var): New function.
1594 (handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
1595 suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
1596 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
1597 to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
1598 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
1599 cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
1600 (Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
1601 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1602 undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
1603 skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
1604 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
1605 top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
1606 `..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
1607 * tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
1608 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
1609 * tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
1612 2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
1614 * tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
1615 cygwin compatibility.
1616 * tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
1618 * tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
1619 a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
1621 2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1623 * m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
1624 * tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
1626 * tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
1627 contains the macro name.
1628 Report from Volker Boerchers.
1630 2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1632 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1634 2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1636 * automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
1637 the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
1638 * tests/clean2.test: New file.
1639 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
1640 Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
1642 * aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
1643 macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
1644 already diagnoses them.
1645 (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1647 * tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
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.
1651 * tests/acloca17.test: New file.
1652 * tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
1653 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
1654 Report from Jim Meyering.
1656 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1657 Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
1658 Suggested by Karl Berry.
1660 * automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
1661 diagnostics when no input file is found.
1662 * tests/output5.test: Adjust.
1663 Suggested by Jens Petersen.
1665 2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1667 * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
1668 * automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
1669 output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.
1670 * tests/ar2.test: New file.
1671 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1672 Report from Kevin Ryde.

1679 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
1680 * tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
1681 Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
1682 in spite of the error.
1683 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1685 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
1686 doubled word in footnote.
1688 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
1689 $(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
1690 Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
1691 * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
1692 $(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
1694 2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1696 * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
1697 uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
1698 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
1699 * lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
1700 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
1702 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
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).
1708 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1710 2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1712 * tests/defs.in (GNUmake): Grep for GNU to parry FreeBSD make.

1728 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Turn VAR_ASIS variables into

1730 limited line length, such as OSF1/Tru64 make.
1731 * tests/longline.test: New file.
1732 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1733 * tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
1734 Report from Simon Josefsson.
1736 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
1737 --etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it
1738 creates the TAGS file anyway.
1739 Report from Akim Demaille.
1741 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Nicolas Joly reported on
1742 2002-06-12 that dependencies were output in $dir.libs/$base.lo.d.

1744 $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Try both.

1811 ($automake_will_process_aux_dir): New variable.

1814 have to process all files twice using

1873 2004-04-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
1875 * lib/install-sh: If "mv -f" works, use it, and fall back to
1876 the old "test -f" + "rm -f" + "mv" method only if "mv -f" does
1877 not work. This improves performance in the usual case where
1878 "mv -f" works. It also lets us install the "mv" command
1879 without worrying about a small window where "mv" does not
1880 exist (this problem was reported by Raul Nunez de Arenas
1883 2004-03-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1908 * lib/config.guess: New upstream version.
1910 Fix for PR automake/285:
1911 * automake.in (handle_ltlibraries): Keep track of installation

1936 Reported by Mark Phillips.
1938 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use Automake::Rule::define

1958 2004-02-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1964 Report from Nathanael Nerode.

2029 to create "" directories.
2030 * test/instspc.test: New file.

2035 (Extending): Make it a subsection of Not Enough.
2037 * lib/gnupload (GPG): Use an absolute path. Suggestion from Gary
2039 (passphrase): Unset it this variable before using it, in case it
2040 was exported. Report from Scott James Remnant.
2042 2004-01-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2044 * lib/gnupload (usage): Fix example.

2059 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Use `s/xx//p'
2060 instead of `/xx/ s///p'; the latter fails when GNU sed is run with
2061 POSIXLY_CORRECT. Also strip superfluous -e.
2062 Report from Miloslav Trmac.
2064 2004-01-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2066 * tests/lex5.test: Sleep before calling AUTOMAKE the second time,
2067 this fixes a spurious failure reported by Andreas Schwab. Also
2068 make sure ylwrap is not installed unless needed, and exercise
2071 2004-01-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> (tiny change)
2073 * doc/automake.texi (Dist): Document limitations of distcheck-hook

2226 Report from Harlan Stenn.
2228 2004-01-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

2285 Suggested by Tom Tromey.
2287 Do not output .lo rules for programs and static libraries objects,
2288 and do not output .o/.obj rules for libtool libraries. This is
2289 about explicit rules only, not inference rules.
2290 * automake.in (handle_single_transform_list): Rename as ...
2291 (handle_single_transform): ... this. Take a single file
2292 to transform (it was only called this way) and accept a new
