105 Implement serialization for Locations.
106 * lib/Automake/Location.pm (serialize, deserialize): New
107 functions. They allows to serialize a Location in an array, and
108 to restore a Location from a thread queue. The API is
109 unsymmetric (array vs. queue) because enqueuing data needs to
112 Parallel automake: ordered output messages.
113 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (%_default_options): New options
114 `ordered' default enabled, `queue', default zero (no queue),
115 `queue_key' default undefined.
116 (_merge_options): Ensure `ordered' channels cannot have fatal
117 messages or backtrace output.
118 (_enqueue, _dequeue): New functions, to push messages onto a
119 Thread::Queue, and output messages from such a queue, suitably
120 weeded for duplicates in the same manner as _print_message.
121 (_print_message): If the channel is ordered and has an
122 associated queue, then enqueue messages instead of printing
124 (setup_channel_queue, pop_channel_queue): New functions,
125 to set a Thread::Queue for channels, and to flush a queue.
126 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Unset channel option `ordered'
127 for fatal, automake, and verb channels.
128 * automake.in (QUEUE_MESSAGE): New global constant, used as
130 (handle_makefiles_threaded): Create message queues for each
131 input file; workers queue messages, and the master outputs them
132 ordered, using the new Channels.pm functions.
133 * tests/parallel-am.test: Also check for ordered output (in the
134 absence of --add-missing races).
135 * tests/parallel-am2.test: New test; check for ordered output of
136 warning and (regular) error messages.

139 Parallel automake execution: AUTOMAKE_JOBS.
140 * lib/Automake/Config.in (perl_threads): New global.
141 * automake.in: Use it. If the perl supports interpreter-based
142 threading, then use `threads' and `Thread::Queue'.
143 (handle_makefile, handle_makefiles_serial): New functions,
144 factored out from main.
145 (get_number_of_threads): New function, compute number of threads
146 to use, based on environment variable `AUTOMAKE_JOBS' and number

173 Minor file checking optimization: set_dir_cache_file.
174 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm (set_dir_cache_file): New function.
175 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Instead of resetting the
176 cache when a file has been installed, simply correct the cache
177 using set_dir_cache_file.
179 No uniquifying for fatal, prog_error, and verbose messages.
180 There is no point in dropping critical messages, even if they
181 are duplicates (unlikely to happen unless they have been sent
182 as non-critical messages before), and verbose messages should
183 enable to show progress, even using duplicate statements.
184 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (fatal, automake, verb): Set
185 `uniq_part' to `UP_NONE' when registering these channels.

200 instead of print, files.split instead of string.split.

218 (Variables not reset by &initialize_per_input.): New section,
219 clarify that %am_file_cache is not reset.
220 (initialize_per_input): Reset $am_file_name, $am_relative_dir,
221 $in_file_name, $relative_dir, and $topsrcdir to `undef' rather
222 than the empty string; $topsrcdir was not reset at all. Sort
223 remaining variables in the same order as in the section
224 `Variables reset by &initialize_per_input'.

234 Fix DisjConditions module to be thread-safe for perl >= 5.7.2.
235 Self-hashes of blessed references are not correctly transported
236 through thread creation. This patch fixes that by recreating
237 the hashes upon thread creation with a CLONE special subroutine,
238 which is automatically invoked by new enough Perl versions.
239 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (CLONE): New special
240 subroutine to fix self hashes upon thread creation.
241 * lib/Automake/tests/Condition-t.pl: New, sister test to

380 This patch changes back the order of installation of nobase
381 LTLIBRARIES to that in which files are listed in the variables.
382 It does not fix the issue of strict dependency ordering, as
383 implied by *_LIBADD, but as before allows to steer the order by
384 listing the libraries in nobase_*_LTLIBRARIES appropriately.

518 2008-09-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
520 Fix multi-file installation for files in srcdir.
521 For files that can live in the build tree or the source tree,
522 we have to expect that prepending `$(srcdir)/' to each name
523 will let the install command line exceed length limitations.
524 Thus use a new macro, $(am__base_list), to install in chunks
525 of 40 files, similar to what we do for nobase_* files. There,
526 lower the limit to 40, too.
527 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__install_max): Lower to 40.
528 (am__base_list): New macro.
529 * lib/am/data.am (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%) [%?BASE%]: Use it.
530 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
531 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Likewise.
533 2008-09-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
535 Use `Exit' instead of `exit' in test suite.
536 Cater to Bourne shells like Solaris sh that do not pass the
537 `exit' argument as status to the cleanup trap.
538 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check that here-documents
539 use only `END' or `EOF' as delimiter in the test suite.
540 Check that, outside of here-documents, the tests do not use
541 `exit' with an argument, but use `Exit' instead.
542 * tests/defs.in (Exit): New function. Use it throughout,
543 starting with the introduction of the exit trap.
544 * tests/aclibobj.test, tests/acloca10.test, tests/acloca11.test,

754 2008-09-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
756 Avoid Heisenbug with verbose testing on HP-UX.
757 * tests/output-order.test: Remove spurious redirection line
758 from output for comparison.
760 For all possibly-relative subdirs, use $(am__cd).
761 Up to now, $(am__cd) was only used within backquotes, to avoid
762 extraneous output. This patch also uses it for every `cd' to a
763 relative subdir, to prevent CDPATH from entering an unwanted
765 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fix current check for
766 $(am__cd) within backquotes a bit. Add new check for `cd' to a
768 * automake.in (handle_tags, handle_configure): Adjust rules.
769 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am: Likewise.
770 * lib/am/configure.am: Likewise.
771 * lib/am/distdir.am: Likewise.
772 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Likewise.
773 * lib/am/subdirs.am: Likewise.
774 * lib/am/tags.am: Likewise.
775 * lib/am/texibuild.am: Likewise.
777 Fix nobase-python.test for BSD make.
778 * tests/nobase-python.test: Listing a dependency to be found
779 via VPATH search explicitly, without the path, as a target,
780 will turn off VPATH search for FreeBSD make. So move the
781 creation of the files outside of the Makefile.
783 2008-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
785 Implement AM_MAINTAINER_MODE([DEFAULT-MODE]).
786 * m4/maintainer.m4 (AM_MAINTAINER_MODE): Allow for an optional
787 first argument of `enable' or `disable', setting the default.
788 * doc/automake.texi (Optional, maintainer-mode): Document.
789 * tests/mmode.test: New test.

792 Suggestion by Vincent Lefevre.
794 2008-08-31 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
796 Copyright year updates.

799 * lib/am/tags.am: Likewise.
801 2008-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
803 * THANKS: Use Cyrillic name instead of ASCII transcription.
805 2008-08-22 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
807 Fix rebuilding of removed subdir/Makefile.in files.
808 * lib/am/configure.am (%MAKEFILE-IN%) [?!TOPDIR_P?]: If
809 subdir/Makefile.in was removed, am--refresh would not update
810 it. Fix up for it by running the per-directory rebuild rule.
811 * tests/remake6.test, tests/remake7.test: New tests.
812 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
813 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
814 Report and initial patch by Ilya N. Golubev.
816 2008-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
818 * tests/notrans.test: Use multiple man files of each type.
820 Fix maintainer-check failures.
821 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Drop TAB.
822 * tests/missing6.test: Use 'rm -f'.
824 2008-08-19 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org> (tiny patch)
826 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering, Per-Object Flags):
829 2008-08-02 Karl Berry <karl@freefriends.org>
831 * lib/gnupload: Provide also a simple example.
833 2008-06-25 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnuvola.org>
836 * doc/automake.texi (Public Macros): Close open paren.
838 2008-06-18 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
840 Introduce macro $(am__mv) to facilitate 'libtool --dry-run'.
841 * lib/am/depend.am (am__mv): New macro, set to 'mv -f'.
842 * lib/am/depend2.am: Use throughout to move the temporary
843 depfile *.Tpo to its final destination *.Po.
845 2008-06-18 Rafael Espindola <espindola@google.com>
847 * lib/config-ml.in: don't handle --enable-shared and --enable-static.
849 2008-06-18 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
851 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__install_max): New variable.
852 (am__nobase_list): Use it.
854 Fix conditional rules competing with config.status rules.
855 * automake.in (handle_configure): Teach targets about the
856 conditional config.status rule.
857 * tests/cond39.test: Adjust test to expose this.
859 For AC_CONFIG_LINKS(X,X), do not clean X in a non-VPATH build.
860 * automake.in (rewrite_inputs_into_dependencies): Do distribute
861 inputs where input and output name are equal. This relies on
862 the assumption that it only happens with AC_CONFIG_LINKS.

957 (fetch): Pull config.guess and config.sub from git repo now.
959 * lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm (handle_exec_errors): New argument

978 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
980 Use `install' with multiple files at once for some primaries.
981 With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once,
982 to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits.
983 This isn't yet done with base targets. One hope is that there,
984 the typical file name length is lower. If this turns out to be
985 a problem, it should be revisited.
987 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for
988 installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists
989 files keyed by their target directory.
990 * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to
991 $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets.
992 (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases.
993 Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same
994 directory to `install'. In the nobase case, make use of
995 $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before
996 populating it. Take care of files in source and build trees,
997 and avoid creating directories where no files are to be
999 * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise.
1000 (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
1001 * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise.
1002 (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise. Also take care to keep note of
1003 a list for byte compilation after installation.
1004 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
1005 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists
1006 to install multiple files at once.
1008 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1010 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1012 Require unreleased Autoconf for fixed AC_PROG_INSTALL.
1013 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump AC_PREREQ to 2.61-341,
1015 * configure.ac: Also require Autoconf 2.61-341, to catch
1016 failure early and provide a sensible error message.
1018 Drop usage of obsolete macros AC_EXEEXT and AC_OBJEXT.
1019 * tests/ansi4.test: Drop AC_OBJEXT and AC_EXEEXT.

1040 support wildcards" node's English and sense.
1042 2008-02-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1044 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): In the case patterns for
1045 XFAILed tests, add literal bracket expression for matching
1046 whitespace, as NetBSD 4.99.54 ksh does not understand a
1047 bracket expression resulting from variable expansion.
1048 * README: Explain how to run the Automake test suite, including
1049 setting MAKE to test gmake.
1050 Report by Patrick Welche.

1067 2008-02-05 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
1069 * doc/automake.texi (CVS): configure.ac will appear newer, not
1070 older, than configure. Use `lexical' instead of `alphabetical'.
1072 2008-01-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1140 Do not fail if `autoupdate' is not present.
1141 * tests/obsolete.test: Check for presence of autoupdate. Apparently,
1142 FreeBSD may install the other Autoconf programs without a version
1143 suffix but not autoupdate.
1145 Fix Heisenbug trying to unset a sometimes-not-set variable.
1146 * tests/check5.test: Do not error out upon `unset TESTS' due to

1156 resistant to different quoting styles of $1.
1158 Clarify texinfo.tex and TEXINFO_TEX semantics.
1159 * doc/automake.texi (Texinfo): Clarify that by default,
1160 texinfo.tex is searched in the same directory as the Makefile.am
1161 that needs it. Clarify that TEXINFO_TEX has precedence over
1162 AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, and that it requires the user to install and
1164 * tests/txinfo22.test: Ensure TEXINFO_TEX is not distributed.

1238 lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: Sync from upstream.
1240 Fix the distdir target to cope with spaces in absolute file names.
1241 * lib/am/distdir.am: Quote all instances of $(distdir) and

1324 * lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am, lib/am/scripts.am:
1325 Use %KEY?TRUE:FALSE%.
1326 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__strip_dir): Assign the result to f
1327 to be more alike am__vpath_adj.
1328 Adjust dependencies.

1355 Fix signal handling in aclocal.
1356 * aclocal.in (unlink_tmp): If invoked by a signal, note so
1357 in verbose mode. Reinstall default signal handler and reraise,
1358 to transport the interrupt information.
1360 2007-11-13 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com>
1362 Fix color test failure on dumb (and other) terminals.

1380 Run each test in a process-private subdirectory.

1382 test in case the test succeeded. This needs to be revisited
1383 because we would like to keep the output of XPASSing tests.
1384 Also, note when we were interrupted by a signal. Code taken

1912 Set $seen_gettext_intl when it is seen.
1913 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
1914 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
1915 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1917 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1919 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
1920 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
1921 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
1922 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
1923 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
1924 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
1925 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
1926 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
1927 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1929 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
1931 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
1933 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1935 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.

1938 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1940 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
1942 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
1944 For PR automake/505:
1945 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
1946 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
1948 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1950 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
1951 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
1952 Report by Patrick Welche.
1954 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1956 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
1957 against currently running test for the first and last element
1958 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
1959 on these words, too.
1960 * tests/check6.test: Update.
1962 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1964 For PR automake/501:
1965 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
1966 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
1967 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
1968 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
1969 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
1971 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1973 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
1974 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
1976 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
1977 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1979 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
1981 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1983 For PR automake/500:
1984 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
1985 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
1986 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
1987 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
1988 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
1989 and non-VPATH builds.
1991 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1993 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.

1996 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1998 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability

2013 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9c.
2015 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
2017 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in

2021 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
2023 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
2024 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
2025 Directory Variables".
2027 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
2030 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
2031 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
2033 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2035 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
2036 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
2037 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
2038 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
2040 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
2041 documentation of ylwrap.
2042 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
2043 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,

2052 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
2053 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
2054 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
2055 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
2056 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
2057 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
2060 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
2061 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
2062 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
2063 if the default acdir does not exist.
2065 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
2066 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
2069 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
2071 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
2073 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2075 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
2076 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
2077 (menu): Unify node naming.
2078 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
2080 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
2082 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

2102 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
2103 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
2104 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
2105 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
2106 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
2107 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
2108 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
2109 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
2110 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
2111 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.

2114 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
2115 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
2116 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
2118 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2120 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
2122 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
2123 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
2124 other built scripts.
2126 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
2127 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
2128 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
2129 * tests/init.test: New file.
2130 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2132 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2134 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
2135 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
2136 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
2137 `make distdir' instead.
2139 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2141 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
2142 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
2143 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
2145 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
2146 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
2147 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
2148 Report from Bas Wijnen.
2149 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
2150 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2152 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
2153 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
2154 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
2155 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
2156 if we cannot create this file.
2157 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
2158 (unlink_tmp): New function.
2159 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
2161 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2163 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
2164 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
2165 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
2166 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
2168 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
2169 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
2171 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
2173 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2175 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
2176 can install only one file at a time.
2177 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
2178 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
2179 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
2180 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
2181 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
2182 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
2183 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
2184 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
2185 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
2186 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
2187 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
2188 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
2189 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
2190 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
2191 intermediate directories; this is safer.
2192 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
2193 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
2194 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
2195 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
2196 traditional implementations.
2198 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2200 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
2202 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2204 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
2205 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
2206 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
2208 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2209 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2211 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
2212 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
2213 computed by config.status.
2214 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
2215 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
2218 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
2219 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2221 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
2222 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
2223 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2225 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2227 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
2229 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2231 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
2233 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2234 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2236 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
2237 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
2238 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
2239 Fix some comment typos.
2241 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2243 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
2244 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
2245 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
2247 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
2250 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
2251 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
2252 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
2253 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
2254 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
2256 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
2258 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
2260 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
2261 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
2263 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
2264 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
2265 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
2268 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
2270 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
2272 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
2274 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
2275 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
2276 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
2278 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2280 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
2281 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
2282 directory component.
2283 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
2285 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
2286 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
2287 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
2289 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2291 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
2292 New upstream versions.
2294 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2296 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
2297 repository, they use SVN now.
2299 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
2301 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
2302 savannah.nongnu.org.
2304 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2306 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
2307 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
2308 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
2310 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2312 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
2313 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
2314 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
2315 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
2316 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
2317 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
2318 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
2320 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2322 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
2324 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
2325 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
2327 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
2328 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
2330 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
2331 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
2332 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
2333 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
2334 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
2336 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
2338 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
2340 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
2341 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
2342 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
2345 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
2346 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
2349 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
2350 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
2351 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
2353 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2355 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
2356 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
2358 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
2361 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
2362 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
2365 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
2366 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
2367 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
2369 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
2370 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
2371 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
2372 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
2374 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
2375 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
2376 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
2378 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
2379 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
2380 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
2383 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
2384 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
2385 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
2388 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
2389 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
2390 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
2393 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of

2700 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

2705 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2707 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',

2733 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
2734 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
2735 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it

2800 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
2801 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
2802 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
2803 if the usual candidates show up.

2857 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):

2859 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
2860 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.

2882 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
2883 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
2884 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
2885 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
2886 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
2887 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
2888 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
2889 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
2890 Report from Ed Hartnett.

2894 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
2896 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
2897 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
2898 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
2899 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
