7         $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
9 2006-08-19  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
11         * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
12         ylwrap.  Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
13         * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
14         (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always

30         * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
31         as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
32         mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.

54         (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
55         exhaustive.

72 2006-08-15  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
74         * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
76 2006-08-14  Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
78         * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
79         (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
80         (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
81         * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest

92         * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
94 2006-08-04  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
96         * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
98         * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp.  Show an example of script
99         built from configure.ac.  Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
100         other built scripts.
102         * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
103         AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined.  This is for
104         newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
105         * tests/init.test: New file.
106         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

113         `make distdir' instead.
115 2006-08-04  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
117         * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
118         and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
119         conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
120         handled.
121         * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
122         AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
123         definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
124         Report from Bas Wijnen.
125         * tests/amopt.test: New test.
126         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
128         * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
129         new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null.  So
130         create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
131         file, and erase it afterward.  Fall back to using /dev/null only
132         if we cannot create this file.
133         Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
134         (unlink_tmp): New function.
135         * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
137 2006-08-04  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
139         * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
140         do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
141         to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
142         Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
143         depdir computation.
144         * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
145         Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
146         main program.
147         * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
149 2006-07-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
151         * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
152         can install only one file at a time.
153         (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
154         (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
155         (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
156         cause weird behavior with the other changes below.  All later uses
157         of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
158         Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
159         octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
160         likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
161         octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
162         'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
163         <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
164         (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
165         temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
166         (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
167         intermediate directories; this is safer.
168         (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
169         /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
170         HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
171         Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
172         traditional implementations.
174 2006-07-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
176         * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
178 2006-07-06  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
180         * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
181         for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
182         <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
184 2006-06-24  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
185             Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
187         * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
188         `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
189         computed by config.status.
190         * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
191         a changed directory.  Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
192         * THANKS: Update.
194 2006-06-24  Eric Dorland  <eric@debian.org>
195             Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
197         * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
198         * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
199         * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
201 2006-06-07  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
203         * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
205 2006-06-07  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
207         * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
209 2006-06-06  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
210             Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
212         * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
213         distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
214         and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
215         Fix some comment typos.
217 2006-06-06  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
219         * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
220         7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
221         with `-MDupdate'.  Refine test to catch this.
223         * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
224         procedure.
226         * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
227         requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
228         this.  Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
229         is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
230         * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
231         subsequent checks.
232         * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
234         * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
235         MinGW perl.
236         * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
237         * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
239         * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
240         plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
241         for grep.  Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
242         * THANKS: Update.
244 2006-05-26  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>  (tiny change)
246         * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
248 2006-05-25  Noah Misch  <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
250         * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
251         ENOLCK.  Only mention `make -j' when applicable.  Only raise
252         fatal errors when `make -j' is involved.  Improve error message.
254 2006-05-17  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
256         * lib/Autom4te/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
257         `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
258         directory component.
259         * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
260         this file.
261         * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
262         * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
263         * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.

267         * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
268         New upstream versions.
270 2006-05-15  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
272         * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
273         repository, they use SVN now.
275 2006-05-13  Werner Lemberg  <wl@gnu.org>
277         * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
278         savannah.nongnu.org.
280 2006-05-13  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
282         * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
283         lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
284         lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
286 2006-05-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
288         * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
289         Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
290         as per GNU coding standards.  Close a race condition reported by Ralf
291         Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal.  There is still a race condition
292         on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
293         Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
294         Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
296 2006-05-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
298         * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
299         GNUmake.
300         * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
301         follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
303         * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.  Fix test that
304         ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
305         `configure'.
306         * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
307         * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise.  Do not override by setting
308         $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
309         * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
310         * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise.  Use `set -e'.
312         * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
313         turned off later.
314         * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
316         * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
317         the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
318         it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it.  Fixes
319         java.test failure.
321         * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
322         files in the source tree.  Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
323         make.
325         * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
326         (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
327         (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
329 2006-05-10  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
331         * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
332         /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
334         * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
335         Autoconf.
337         * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
338         * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
339         in perl < 5.8.2.
341         * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
342         it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
343         fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
345         * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
346         match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
347         cause false matches.  Tighten overrides regex.  Fix typo
348         `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
350         * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);

732         $(MAKE) invocations.

757         * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
758         search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
759         People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
760         AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
761         * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
762         for missing files that can be installed.
763         * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
765 2005-07-27  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>

774 2005-07-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
776         * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
777         problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('.  Automake and
778         Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
779         if the usual candidates show up.

802         * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
803         "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
804         ia64 systems).

822         if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
823         Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
825         * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
826         trailing backslash.
827         * tests/commen10.test: New file.
828         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
829         Report from Harald Dunkel.
831         * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
832         of AC_SUBST.
833         * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
834         Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.

858         * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
859         variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
860         only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
861         variable, not to older helper variables.  This way the order of
862         the items appended to the variable is preserved.

872         * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
873         definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
874         generate_makefile.  This superfluous definition introduced long
875         lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
876         line length.  Report from Mathias Froehlich.
878 2005-06-11  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>

890         Report from Bob Proulx.
892         * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
894 2005-05-24  Brian Gough  <bjg@network-theory.co.uk>  (tiny change)
