3 Keep `--silent-rules' across triggered automake reruns.
4 * automake.in (usage): Reformat to be a bit clearer.

125 Improve `make -n dist' and `make -n distcheck' for GNU make.
126 Ensure that `make -n dist' and `make -n distcheck' do not change
127 files, due to GNU make executing rules containing `$(MAKE)'.
128 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Separate the creation of
129 `$(distdir)/$$subdir' for `$(DIST_SUBDIRS)' and the recursion
130 into the `$(DIST_SUBDIRS)' in two separate rule commands.

137 2009-03-07 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
139 Solaris make testsuite fixes.
140 * tests/check10.test: When a rule fails, Solaris make will

224 libtool in the preprocessor invocation (as is done in
225 depmode=cpp). Silence compiler stderr.
226 [msvcmsys]: New depmode as a derivative of depmode=msvisualcpp.
227 msvcmsys transforms any backslashes into forward slashes to
228 make the grep in depend.m4 match, instead of the "cygpath -u"

302 2008-12-21 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
304 Revamp semantics for `missing help2man' and manpage distribution.
305 Previously, `missing help2man' would create a missing man page
306 containing an error message, and exit 1. This does not play
307 well with `make': the next run will see this particular man page
308 as being up to date, and will only error out on the next
309 generated man page, if any; repeat until all pages are done.
310 This patch changes `missing' to exit successfully in this case,
311 but `make dist' will ensure that no such man pages are packaged.
312 * lib/missing: Exit successfully even if we create a replacement
313 page due to missing help2man.
314 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Define %HAVE-MANS% to be true
315 if this makefile deals with man pages.

317 check that no man page in $(MANS) contains the replacement text
319 * tests/man4.test: New test.

333 Fix config.status depfiles failure.
334 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Commands are
335 again a single shell brace group, so they are correctly skipped
336 when dependencies are turned off. The failure is noisy with
338 * tests/depend6.test: New test.

373 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Python, Rebuilding):
374 Replace 'configure' with '@command{configure}' as appropriate.

407 quoting to MISSING, but only if needed.
408 * m4/sanity.m4 (AM_SANITY_CHECK): Abort configure if `pwd` or
409 $srcdir contain shell meta-characters that cannot be handled;

565 when determining whether to apply the old rule for the libtool
566 library default source name.
567 Testsuite failure exposed by Bob Proulx' build daemon.

601 New serialization keys.
602 ($required_conf_file_queue): New file global.
603 (queue_required_conf_file, require_queued_conf_file): New
604 functions, to queue and dequeue requirements for aux dir files.
605 (require_conf_file): Enqueue if needed.
606 (get_number_of_threads): Can do threads with --add-missing now.
607 (handle_makefiles_threaded): Let worker threads enqueue, let
608 master attend to queued requirements at the right time.
609 * tests/parallel-am.test: Explain the purpose of the include
611 * tests/parallel-am2.test: Also cope with --add-missing.
612 * tests/parallel-am3.test: New test, test absence of races with
613 concurrent same-file installs stemming from --add-missing.
614 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
616 Implement serialization for Locations.
617 * lib/Automake/Location.pm (serialize, deserialize): New
618 functions. They allows to serialize a Location in an array, and
619 to restore a Location from a thread queue. The API is
620 unsymmetric (array vs. queue) because enqueuing data needs to
623 Parallel automake: ordered output messages.
624 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (%_default_options): New options
625 `ordered' default enabled, `queue', default zero (no queue),
626 `queue_key' default undefined.
627 (_merge_options): Ensure `ordered' channels cannot have fatal
628 messages or backtrace output.
629 (_enqueue, _dequeue): New functions, to push messages onto a
630 Thread::Queue, and output messages from such a queue, suitably
631 weeded for duplicates in the same manner as _print_message.
632 (_print_message): If the channel is ordered and has an
633 associated queue, then enqueue messages instead of printing
635 (setup_channel_queue, pop_channel_queue): New functions,
636 to set a Thread::Queue for channels, and to flush a queue.
637 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Unset channel option `ordered'
638 for fatal, automake, and verb channels.
639 * automake.in (QUEUE_MESSAGE): New global constant, used as
641 (handle_makefiles_threaded): Create message queues for each
642 input file; workers queue messages, and the master outputs them
643 ordered, using the new Channels.pm functions.
644 * tests/parallel-am.test: Also check for ordered output (in the
645 absence of --add-missing races).
646 * tests/parallel-am2.test: New test; check for ordered output of
647 warning and (regular) error messages.
648 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
650 Parallel automake execution: AUTOMAKE_JOBS.
651 * lib/Automake/Config.in (perl_threads): New global.
652 * automake.in: Use it. If the perl supports interpreter-based
653 threading, then use `threads' and `Thread::Queue'.
654 (handle_makefile, handle_makefiles_serial): New functions,
655 factored out from main.
656 (get_number_of_threads): New function, compute number of threads
657 to use, based on environment variable `AUTOMAKE_JOBS' and number
658 of independent makefiles.
659 (handle_makefiles_threaded): New function. Spawn threads, use
660 thread queue to distribute handling the different makefiles.
661 Collect $exit_code values from threads.
662 (main): Use new functions.
663 * aclocal.in: No threads here.
664 * configure.ac: Substitute PERL_THREADS; enabled with perl >=
665 5.7.2 and when ithreads are available.
666 * bootstrap (dosubst): Likewise.
667 * Makefile.am (do_subst): Likewise.
668 * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (do_subst): Likewise.
669 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Use `Automake::Config' and
671 (verb): Prepend thread ID (tid) to verbose messages.
672 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (msg): Before exiting, flush stderr,
673 needed for worker threads.
674 * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Also
675 include the build tree path, so Config.pm is found.
676 * tests/parallel-am.test: New test.
677 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.

684 Minor file checking optimization: set_dir_cache_file.
685 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm (set_dir_cache_file): New function.
686 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Instead of resetting the
687 cache when a file has been installed, simply correct the cache
688 using set_dir_cache_file.
690 No uniquifying for fatal, prog_error, and verbose messages.
691 There is no point in dropping critical messages, even if they
692 are duplicates (unlikely to happen unless they have been sent
693 as non-critical messages before), and verbose messages should
694 enable to show progress, even using duplicate statements.
695 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (fatal, automake, verb): Set
696 `uniq_part' to `UP_NONE' when registering these channels.
698 Fix 'config.status --file=... depfiles' with new Autoconf.
699 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Eval
700 $CONFIG_STATUS contents if we detect the quoting used by
701 Autoconf 2.62 and newer for --file=.

709 Support for Python 3.0, drop support for pre-2.0.
710 * lib/py-compile: Do not import string; use sys.stdout.write
711 instead of print, files.split instead of string.split.
712 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Also look for python3 and
713 phython3.0; do not look for python1.5. Use sys.stdout.write.
714 (AM_PYTHON_CHECK_VERSION): Do not use string; adjust to xrange
715 removal in Python 3.0, and changed semantics of map.

726 ($output_rules, $output_trailer): Fix comment, and sort
727 declarations in the order they will appear in the output.
728 ($all_target): Unused variable, remove.
729 (Variables not reset by &initialize_per_input.): New section,
730 clarify that %am_file_cache is not reset.
731 (initialize_per_input): Reset $am_file_name, $am_relative_dir,
732 $in_file_name, $relative_dir, and $topsrcdir to `undef' rather
733 than the empty string; $topsrcdir was not reset at all. Sort
734 remaining variables in the same order as in the section
735 `Variables reset by &initialize_per_input'.
737 Let stderr output end up on fd 2 in testsuite.

745 Fix DisjConditions module to be thread-safe for perl >= 5.7.2.
746 Self-hashes of blessed references are not correctly transported
747 through thread creation. This patch fixes that by recreating
748 the hashes upon thread creation with a CLONE special subroutine,
749 which is automatically invoked by new enough Perl versions.
750 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (CLONE): New special
751 subroutine to fix self hashes upon thread creation.
752 * lib/Automake/tests/Condition-t.pl: New, sister test to
753 Condition.pl, but spawns a new threads after each creation of a

894 implied by *_LIBADD, but as before allows to steer the order by
895 listing the libraries in nobase_*_LTLIBRARIES appropriately.

897 nobase libraries to be installed in the same directory are
898 passed to libtool in one invocation.

1031 Fix multi-file installation for files in srcdir.
1032 For files that can live in the build tree or the source tree,
1033 we have to expect that prepending `$(srcdir)/' to each name
1034 will let the install command line exceed length limitations.
1035 Thus use a new macro, $(am__base_list), to install in chunks
1036 of 40 files, similar to what we do for nobase_* files. There,
1037 lower the limit to 40, too.

1050 use only `END' or `EOF' as delimiter in the test suite.
1051 Check that, outside of here-documents, the tests do not use
1052 `exit' with an argument, but use `Exit' instead.
1053 * tests/defs.in (Exit): New function. Use it throughout,
1054 starting with the introduction of the exit trap.

1265 2008-09-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1267 Avoid Heisenbug with verbose testing on HP-UX.
1268 * tests/output-order.test: Remove spurious redirection line
1269 from output for comparison.
1271 For all possibly-relative subdirs, use $(am__cd).
1272 Up to now, $(am__cd) was only used within backquotes, to avoid
1273 extraneous output. This patch also uses it for every `cd' to a
1274 relative subdir, to prevent CDPATH from entering an unwanted
1276 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fix current check for
1277 $(am__cd) within backquotes a bit. Add new check for `cd' to a
1279 * automake.in (handle_tags, handle_configure): Adjust rules.
1280 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am: Likewise.
1281 * lib/am/configure.am: Likewise.
1282 * lib/am/distdir.am: Likewise.
1283 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Likewise.
1284 * lib/am/subdirs.am: Likewise.
1285 * lib/am/tags.am: Likewise.
1286 * lib/am/texibuild.am: Likewise.
1288 Fix nobase-python.test for BSD make.
1289 * tests/nobase-python.test: Listing a dependency to be found
1290 via VPATH search explicitly, without the path, as a target,
1291 will turn off VPATH search for FreeBSD make. So move the
1292 creation of the files outside of the Makefile.
1294 2008-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1296 Implement AM_MAINTAINER_MODE([DEFAULT-MODE]).
1297 * m4/maintainer.m4 (AM_MAINTAINER_MODE): Allow for an optional
1298 first argument of `enable' or `disable', setting the default.
1299 * doc/automake.texi (Optional, maintainer-mode): Document.
1300 * tests/mmode.test: New test.
1301 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
1303 Suggestion by Vincent Lefevre.
1305 2008-08-31 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1307 Copyright year updates.
1308 * lib/am/header-vars.am: Update copyright years.
1309 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Likewise.
1310 * lib/am/tags.am: Likewise.
1312 2008-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1314 * THANKS: Use Cyrillic name instead of ASCII transcription.
1316 2008-08-22 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1318 Fix rebuilding of removed subdir/Makefile.in files.
1319 * lib/am/configure.am (%MAKEFILE-IN%) [?!TOPDIR_P?]: If
1320 subdir/Makefile.in was removed, am--refresh would not update
1321 it. Fix up for it by running the per-directory rebuild rule.
1322 * tests/remake6.test, tests/remake7.test: New tests.
1323 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
1324 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
1325 Report and initial patch by Ilya N. Golubev.
1327 2008-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1329 * tests/notrans.test: Use multiple man files of each type.
1331 Fix maintainer-check failures.
1332 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Drop TAB.
1333 * tests/missing6.test: Use 'rm -f'.
1335 2008-08-19 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org> (tiny patch)
1337 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering, Per-Object Flags):
1340 2008-08-02 Karl Berry <karl@freefriends.org>
1342 * lib/gnupload: Provide also a simple example.
1344 2008-06-25 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnuvola.org>
1347 * doc/automake.texi (Public Macros): Close open paren.
1349 2008-06-18 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1351 Introduce macro $(am__mv) to facilitate 'libtool --dry-run'.
1352 * lib/am/depend.am (am__mv): New macro, set to 'mv -f'.
1353 * lib/am/depend2.am: Use throughout to move the temporary
1354 depfile *.Tpo to its final destination *.Po.
1356 2008-06-18 Rafael Espindola <espindola@google.com>
1358 * lib/config-ml.in: don't handle --enable-shared and --enable-static.
1360 2008-06-18 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1362 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__install_max): New variable.
1363 (am__nobase_list): Use it.
1365 Fix conditional rules competing with config.status rules.
1366 * automake.in (handle_configure): Teach targets about the
1367 conditional config.status rule.
1368 * tests/cond39.test: Adjust test to expose this.
1370 For AC_CONFIG_LINKS(X,X), do not clean X in a non-VPATH build.
1371 * automake.in (rewrite_inputs_into_dependencies): Do distribute
1372 inputs where input and output name are equal. This relies on
1373 the assumption that it only happens with AC_CONFIG_LINKS.
1374 (handle_configure) <CONFIG_CLEAN_VPATH_FILES>: New variable, for
1375 links where source and dest are equal.
1376 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Remove, if build tree not
1378 * tests/conflnk4.test: New test.
1379 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.

1449 2008-03-24 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1451 * doc/automake.texi (@ovar): New macro, from autoconf.texi.
1453 Suggestion by Eric Blake.
1455 2008-03-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1457 * lib/texinfo.tex: Sync from upstream.

1468 (fetch): Pull config.guess and config.sub from git repo now.
1470 * lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm (handle_exec_errors): New argument
1471 $hint, show if the executing program does not exist.
1472 (xsystem_hint): New function, like xsystem but allows to pass

1489 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1491 Use `install' with multiple files at once for some primaries.
1492 With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once,
1493 to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits.
1494 This isn't yet done with base targets. One hope is that there,
1495 the typical file name length is lower. If this turns out to be
1496 a problem, it should be revisited.
1498 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for
1499 installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists
1500 files keyed by their target directory.
1501 * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to
1502 $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets.
1503 (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases.
1504 Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same
1505 directory to `install'. In the nobase case, make use of
1506 $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before
1507 populating it. Take care of files in source and build trees,
1508 and avoid creating directories where no files are to be
1510 * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise.
1511 (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
1512 * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise.
1513 (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise. Also take care to keep note of
1514 a list for byte compilation after installation.
1515 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
1516 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists
1517 to install multiple files at once.
1519 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1521 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1523 Require unreleased Autoconf for fixed AC_PROG_INSTALL.
1524 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump AC_PREREQ to 2.61-341,
1526 * configure.ac: Also require Autoconf 2.61-341, to catch
1527 failure early and provide a sensible error message.
1529 Drop usage of obsolete macros AC_EXEEXT and AC_OBJEXT.
1530 * tests/ansi4.test: Drop AC_OBJEXT and AC_EXEEXT.

1550 * doc/automake.texi (wildcards): Improve "Why doesn't Automake
1551 support wildcards" node's English and sense.
1553 2008-02-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1555 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): In the case patterns for
1556 XFAILed tests, add literal bracket expression for matching
1557 whitespace, as NetBSD 4.99.54 ksh does not understand a
1558 bracket expression resulting from variable expansion.
1559 * README: Explain how to run the Automake test suite, including
1560 setting MAKE to test gmake.
1561 Report by Patrick Welche.
1563 2008-02-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1578 2008-02-05 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
1580 * doc/automake.texi (CVS): configure.ac will appear newer, not
1581 older, than configure. Use `lexical' instead of `alphabetical'.
1583 2008-01-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1585 * tests/man3.test: Avoid `make VAR=value'.

1649 2008-01-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1651 Do not fail if `autoupdate' is not present.
1652 * tests/obsolete.test: Check for presence of autoupdate. Apparently,
1653 FreeBSD may install the other Autoconf programs without a version
1654 suffix but not autoupdate.
1656 Fix Heisenbug trying to unset a sometimes-not-set variable.
1657 * tests/check5.test: Do not error out upon `unset TESTS' due to

1667 resistant to different quoting styles of $1.
1669 Clarify texinfo.tex and TEXINFO_TEX semantics.
1670 * doc/automake.texi (Texinfo): Clarify that by default,
1671 texinfo.tex is searched in the same directory as the Makefile.am
1672 that needs it. Clarify that TEXINFO_TEX has precedence over
1673 AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, and that it requires the user to install and
1675 * tests/txinfo22.test: Ensure TEXINFO_TEX is not distributed.
1677 Reports by Dilyan Palauzov and Roumen Petrov.

1691 * tests/acloca20.test: Use `--force' with the second $AUTOCONF,
1692 to force update on fast machines where both autoconf invocations
1693 happen within the same second.
1694 Report by Greg Schafer.
1696 2008-01-07 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1749 lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: Sync from upstream.
1751 Fix the distdir target to cope with spaces in absolute file names.
1752 * lib/am/distdir.am: Quote all instances of $(distdir) and

1836 Use %KEY?TRUE:FALSE%.
1837 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__strip_dir): Assign the result to f
1838 to be more alike am__vpath_adj.

1866 Fix signal handling in aclocal.
1867 * aclocal.in (unlink_tmp): If invoked by a signal, note so
1868 in verbose mode. Reinstall default signal handler and reraise,

1893 test in case the test succeeded. This needs to be revisited
1894 because we would like to keep the output of XPASSing tests.
1895 Also, note when we were interrupted by a signal. Code taken
1896 from Autoconf's _AC_INIT_PREPARE.

2424 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
2425 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
2426 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2428 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2430 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
2431 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
2432 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
2433 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
2434 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
2435 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
2436 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
2437 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
2438 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
2440 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
2442 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.

2449 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2451 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
2453 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
2455 For PR automake/505:
2456 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
2457 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
2459 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2461 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
2462 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
2463 Report by Patrick Welche.
2465 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2467 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
2468 against currently running test for the first and last element
2469 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
2470 on these words, too.
2471 * tests/check6.test: Update.
2473 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2475 For PR automake/501:
2476 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
2477 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
2478 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
2479 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
2480 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
2482 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2484 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
2485 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
2487 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
2488 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.

2494 For PR automake/500:
2495 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
2496 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
2497 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
2498 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
2499 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
2500 and non-VPATH builds.
2502 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

2534 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
2535 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
2536 Directory Variables".

2541 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
2542 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
2544 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2546 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
2547 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
2548 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
2549 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
2551 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
2552 documentation of ylwrap.

2563 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
2564 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
2565 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
2566 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
2567 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
2568 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
2571 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
2572 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
2573 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
2574 if the default acdir does not exist.
2576 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:

2584 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2586 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
2587 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
2588 (menu): Unify node naming.
2589 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
2591 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
2593 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

2613 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
2614 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
2615 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
2616 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
2617 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.

2619 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
2620 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
2621 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
2622 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.

2626 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
2627 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.

2631 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
2633 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
2634 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
2635 other built scripts.
2637 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
2638 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
2639 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
2640 * tests/init.test: New file.
2641 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2643 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2645 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
2646 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
2647 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
2648 `make distdir' instead.
2650 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2652 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
2653 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
2654 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
2656 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
2657 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
2658 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
2659 Report from Bas Wijnen.
2660 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
2661 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2663 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
2664 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
2665 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
2666 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
2667 if we cannot create this file.
2668 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
2669 (unlink_tmp): New function.
2670 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
2672 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2674 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
2675 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
2676 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
2677 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
2679 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
2680 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
2682 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
2684 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2686 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
2687 can install only one file at a time.
2688 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
2689 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
2690 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
2691 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
2692 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
2693 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
2694 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
2695 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
2696 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
2697 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
2698 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
2699 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
2700 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
2701 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
2702 intermediate directories; this is safer.
2703 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
2704 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
2705 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
2706 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
2707 traditional implementations.
2709 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2711 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
2713 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2715 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
2716 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
2717 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
2719 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2720 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2722 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
2723 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
2724 computed by config.status.
2725 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
2726 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
2729 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
2730 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2732 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
2733 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
2734 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2736 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2738 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
2740 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2742 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
2744 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2745 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2747 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
2748 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
2749 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
2750 Fix some comment typos.
2752 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2754 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
2755 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
2756 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
2758 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
2761 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
2762 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
2763 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
2764 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
2765 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
2767 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
2769 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
2771 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
2772 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
2774 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
2775 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
2776 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
2779 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
2781 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
2783 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
2785 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
2786 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
2787 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
2789 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2791 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
2792 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
2793 directory component.
2794 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
2796 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
2797 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
2798 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
2800 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2802 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
2803 New upstream versions.
2805 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2807 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
2808 repository, they use SVN now.
2810 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
2812 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
2813 savannah.nongnu.org.
2815 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2817 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
2818 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
2819 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
2821 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2823 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
2824 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
2825 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
2826 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
2827 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
2828 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
2829 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
2831 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2833 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
2835 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
2836 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
2838 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
2839 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
2841 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
2842 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
2843 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
2844 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
2845 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
2847 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
2849 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
2851 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
2852 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
2853 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
2856 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
2857 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
2860 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
2861 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
2862 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
2864 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2866 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
2867 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
2869 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
2872 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
2873 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
2876 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
2877 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
2878 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
2880 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
2881 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
2882 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
2883 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
2885 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
2886 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
2887 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
2889 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
2890 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
2891 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
2894 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
2895 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
2896 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
2899 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
2900 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
2901 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
2904 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of

3244 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
3245 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
3246 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it

3311 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
3312 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
3313 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
3314 if the usual candidates show up.

3368 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
3369 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
3370 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
3371 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.

3391 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3393 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
3394 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
3395 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
3396 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
3397 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
3398 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
3399 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
3400 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
3401 Report from Ed Hartnett.

3405 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
3407 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
3408 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
3409 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
3410 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited

3711 (Auxiliary Programs): Mention config-ml.in and symlink-tree.
3712 Give a URL for texinfo.tex.
3713 (Public macros): Sort alphabetically, and move obsolete macros...
