103 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
105 Use `install' with multiple files at once for some primaries.
106 With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once,
107 to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits.
108 This isn't yet done with base targets. One hope is that there,
109 the typical file name length is lower. If this turns out to be
110 a problem, it should be revisited.
112 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for
113 installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists
114 files keyed by their target directory.
115 * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to
116 $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets.
117 (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases.
118 Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same
119 directory to `install'. In the nobase case, make use of
120 $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before
121 populating it. Take care of files in source and build trees,
122 and avoid creating directories where no files are to be
124 * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise.
125 (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
126 * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise.
127 (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise. Also take care to keep note of
128 a list for byte compilation after installation.
129 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
130 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists
131 to install multiple files at once.
133 Suggested by Akim Demaille.

141 failure early and provide a sensible error message.
143 Drop usage of obsolete macros AC_EXEEXT and AC_OBJEXT.

165 support wildcards" node's English and sense.
167 2008-02-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
169 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): In the case patterns for
170 XFAILed tests, add literal bracket expression for matching
171 whitespace, as NetBSD 4.99.54 ksh does not understand a
172 bracket expression resulting from variable expansion.
173 * README: Explain how to run the Automake test suite, including
174 setting MAKE to test gmake.
175 Report by Patrick Welche.

192 2008-02-05 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
194 * doc/automake.texi (CVS): configure.ac will appear newer, not
195 older, than configure. Use `lexical' instead of `alphabetical'.

265 Do not fail if `autoupdate' is not present.
266 * tests/obsolete.test: Check for presence of autoupdate. Apparently,
267 FreeBSD may install the other Autoconf programs without a version
268 suffix but not autoupdate.
270 Fix Heisenbug trying to unset a sometimes-not-set variable.
271 * tests/check5.test: Do not error out upon `unset TESTS' due to
272 `set -e', in case TESTS was not set.

285 texinfo.tex is searched in the same directory as the Makefile.am
286 that needs it. Clarify that TEXINFO_TEX has precedence over
287 AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, and that it requires the user to install and
289 * tests/txinfo22.test: Ensure TEXINFO_TEX is not distributed.

365 Fix the distdir target to cope with spaces in absolute file names.
366 * lib/am/distdir.am: Quote all instances of $(distdir) and
367 $(top_distdir). They could contain white space, coming from
368 a toplevel package bootstrapped with an older Automake version.
369 (am__relativize): New macro, taken from gnulib code, written by
371 (distdir): Use it to compute relative paths to distdir and

503 * automake.in (handle_tests): Remove debugging leftover.
505 Run each test in a process-private subdirectory.
506 * tests/defs.in: Employ a trap to clean up at the end of the
507 test in case the test succeeded. This needs to be revisited
508 because we would like to keep the output of XPASSing tests.

510 from Autoconf's _AC_INIT_PREPARE.
511 If $keep_testdirs is set, keep them even for successful tests.
512 * tests/Makefile.am (check-clean-local): New target. Remove all

1044 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
1045 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
1046 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
1047 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
1048 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
1049 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
1050 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
1051 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;

1081 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
1082 against currently running test for the first and last element

1092 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
1093 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
1094 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
1096 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1098 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
1099 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
1101 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
1102 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1104 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
1106 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1108 For PR automake/500:
1109 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
1110 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
1111 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
1112 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
1113 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
1114 and non-VPATH builds.
1116 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1118 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.

1121 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1123 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
1124 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
1125 Report from Bruno Haible.
1127 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

1146 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
1148 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
1149 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
1150 Directory Variables".
1152 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
1155 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
1156 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
1158 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1160 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
1161 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
1162 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
1163 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
1165 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
1166 documentation of ylwrap.
1167 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
1168 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,

1177 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
1178 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
1179 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
1180 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
1181 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
1182 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
1185 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
1186 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
1187 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
1188 if the default acdir does not exist.
1190 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
1191 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
1194 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
1196 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
1198 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1200 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
1201 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
1202 (menu): Unify node naming.
1203 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
1205 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
1207 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1209 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
1210 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.

1227 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
1228 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
1229 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
1230 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
1231 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
1232 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
1233 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
1234 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
1235 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
1236 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
1237 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
1239 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
1240 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1241 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
1243 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1245 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
1247 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
1248 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1249 other built scripts.
1251 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1252 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1253 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1254 * tests/init.test: New file.
1255 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1257 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1259 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
1260 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
1261 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
1262 `make distdir' instead.
1264 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1266 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1267 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1268 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1270 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1271 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1272 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1273 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1274 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1275 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1277 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1278 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1279 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1280 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1281 if we cannot create this file.
1282 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1283 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1284 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1286 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1288 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1289 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1290 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1291 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1293 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1294 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1296 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1298 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1300 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1301 can install only one file at a time.
1302 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1303 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1304 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1305 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1306 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1307 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1308 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1309 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1310 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1311 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1312 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1313 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1314 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1315 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1316 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1317 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1318 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1319 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1320 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1321 traditional implementations.
1323 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1325 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1327 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1329 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1330 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1331 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1333 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1334 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1336 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1337 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1338 computed by config.status.
1339 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1340 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1343 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1344 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1346 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1347 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1348 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1350 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1352 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1354 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1356 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1358 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1359 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1361 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1362 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1363 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1364 Fix some comment typos.
1366 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1368 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1369 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1370 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1372 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1375 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1376 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1377 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1378 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1379 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1381 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1383 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1385 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1386 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1388 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1389 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1390 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1393 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1395 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1397 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1399 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1400 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1401 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1403 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1405 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1406 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1407 directory component.
1408 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1410 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1411 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1412 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1414 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1416 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1417 New upstream versions.
1419 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1421 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1422 repository, they use SVN now.
1424 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1426 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1427 savannah.nongnu.org.
1429 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1431 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1432 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1433 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1435 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1437 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1438 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1439 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1440 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1441 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1442 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1443 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1445 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1447 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1449 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1450 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1452 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1453 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1455 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1456 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1457 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1458 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1459 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1461 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1463 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1465 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1466 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1467 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1470 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1471 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1474 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1475 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1476 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1478 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1480 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1481 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1483 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1486 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1487 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1490 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1491 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1492 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1494 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1495 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1496 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1497 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1499 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1500 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1501 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1503 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1504 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1505 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1508 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1509 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1510 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1513 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1514 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1515 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1518 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1519 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1520 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1521 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1523 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1524 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1525 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1526 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1527 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1528 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
1531 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
1533 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
1535 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1537 * lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
1539 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1541 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1542 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1543 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1544 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1546 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1548 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1549 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1550 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1551 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1552 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1553 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1554 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1555 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1557 2006-04-20 Paul Lunau <temp@lunau.me.uk> (tiny change)
1558 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1560 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
1561 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
1562 Report from Paul Lunau.
1563 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.
1566 2006-04-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1568 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Match XFAIL_TESTS delimited by
1569 TABs as well as spaces. Fixes PR automake/490.
1570 * tests/check6.test: New test.
1571 * tests/Makefile.am, THANKS: Update.
1572 Report from Diab Jerius <djerius@cfa.harvard.edu>.
1574 2006-04-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1825 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1830 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1832 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',

1858 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1859 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1860 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it

1925 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1926 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1927 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1928 if the usual candidates show up.

1984 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1985 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.

2008 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
2009 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper

2019 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
2021 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
2022 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
2023 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
2024 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
2025 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
