1 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
3 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
4 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
5 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
7 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
9 * lib/Autom4te/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use

21 New upstream versions.
23 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

33 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

39 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
41 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
42 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
43 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
44 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
45 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
46 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
47 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
49 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
51 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
53 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
54 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
56 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
57 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
59 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
60 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
61 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
62 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
63 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
65 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
67 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
69 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
70 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
71 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
74 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
75 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
78 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
79 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.

91 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
94 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
95 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
96 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
98 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
99 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
100 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
101 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
103 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
104 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
105 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
107 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
108 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
109 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
112 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
113 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
114 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
117 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
118 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
119 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
122 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
123 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
124 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
125 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
127 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
128 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
129 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
130 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
131 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
132 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

146 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
147 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
148 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.

152 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
153 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
154 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
155 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
156 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
157 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
158 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
159 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

165 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
166 Report from Paul Lunau.
167 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.

540 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
542 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
543 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
545 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
547 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
548 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
550 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
552 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
553 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
556 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
558 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
559 fix an underful hbox.
560 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
561 New upstream versions.
563 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
565 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
567 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
569 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
570 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
571 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
572 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
573 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
575 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
577 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
578 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
579 Report from Harald Dunkel.
581 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
583 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
584 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
585 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
586 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
588 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
590 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
591 `mkdir -p' does not work.
592 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
593 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
594 Report from Noah Friedman.
596 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
597 Report from Karl Berry.
599 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
600 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
602 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
603 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
604 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
606 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
608 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
609 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
610 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
611 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
612 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
613 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
614 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
615 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
616 Report from Ed Hartnett.
618 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
620 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
622 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
623 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
624 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
625 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
626 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
628 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
630 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
631 Fix redirections in previous patch.
633 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
635 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
636 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
637 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
638 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
639 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
640 Report from Bob Proulx.
642 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
644 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
646 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
648 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
651 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
652 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
653 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
654 Report from Tom Tromey.
