3 For AC_CONFIG_LINKS(X,X), do not clean X in a non-VPATH build.
4 * automake.in (rewrite_inputs_into_dependencies): Do distribute
5 inputs where input and output name are equal. This relies on
6 the assumption that it only happens with AC_CONFIG_LINKS.

122 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
124 Use `install' with multiple files at once for some primaries.
125 With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once,
126 to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits.
127 This isn't yet done with base targets. One hope is that there,
128 the typical file name length is lower. If this turns out to be
129 a problem, it should be revisited.
131 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for
132 installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists
133 files keyed by their target directory.
134 * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to
135 $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets.
136 (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases.
137 Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same
138 directory to `install'. In the nobase case, make use of
139 $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before
140 populating it. Take care of files in source and build trees,
141 and avoid creating directories where no files are to be
143 * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise.
144 (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
145 * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise.
146 (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise. Also take care to keep note of
147 a list for byte compilation after installation.
148 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
149 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists
150 to install multiple files at once.
152 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
154 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

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

184 support wildcards" node's English and sense.
186 2008-02-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
188 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): In the case patterns for
189 XFAILed tests, add literal bracket expression for matching
190 whitespace, as NetBSD 4.99.54 ksh does not understand a
191 bracket expression resulting from variable expansion.
192 * README: Explain how to run the Automake test suite, including
193 setting MAKE to test gmake.
194 Report by Patrick Welche.
196 2008-02-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

211 2008-02-05 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
213 * doc/automake.texi (CVS): configure.ac will appear newer, not
214 older, than configure. Use `lexical' instead of `alphabetical'.

284 Do not fail if `autoupdate' is not present.
285 * tests/obsolete.test: Check for presence of autoupdate. Apparently,
286 FreeBSD may install the other Autoconf programs without a version
287 suffix but not autoupdate.
289 Fix Heisenbug trying to unset a sometimes-not-set variable.
290 * tests/check5.test: Do not error out upon `unset TESTS' due to
291 `set -e', in case TESTS was not set.

300 resistant to different quoting styles of $1.
302 Clarify texinfo.tex and TEXINFO_TEX semantics.
303 * doc/automake.texi (Texinfo): Clarify that by default,
304 texinfo.tex is searched in the same directory as the Makefile.am
305 that needs it. Clarify that TEXINFO_TEX has precedence over
306 AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, and that it requires the user to install and
308 * tests/txinfo22.test: Ensure TEXINFO_TEX is not distributed.

382 lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: Sync from upstream.
384 Fix the distdir target to cope with spaces in absolute file names.
385 * lib/am/distdir.am: Quote all instances of $(distdir) and
386 $(top_distdir). They could contain white space, coming from
387 a toplevel package bootstrapped with an older Automake version.
388 (am__relativize): New macro, taken from gnulib code, written by
390 (distdir): Use it to compute relative paths to distdir and

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

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

544 * NEWS: Mention 1.10 regression.

1063 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
1064 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination

1067 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
1068 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
1069 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.

1095 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
1096 Report by Patrick Welche.
1098 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1100 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
1101 against currently running test for the first and last element
1102 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
1103 on these words, too.
1104 * tests/check6.test: Update.
1106 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1108 For PR automake/501:
1109 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
1110 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
1111 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
1112 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
1113 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
1115 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1117 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
1118 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
1120 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
1121 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1123 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
1125 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1127 For PR automake/500:
1128 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
1129 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
1130 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
1131 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
1132 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
1133 and non-VPATH builds.
1135 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1137 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
1138 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
1140 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1142 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
1143 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
1144 Report from Bruno Haible.
1146 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1148 * NEWS: Mark de-ANSI-fication as being obsolete.
1149 * doc/automake.texi: Likewise.
1151 2006-08-21 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1153 * Makefile.am, THANKS: Fix typos.
1155 2006-08-20 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1157 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9c.
1159 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
1161 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
1163 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
1165 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
1167 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
1168 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
1169 Directory Variables".
1171 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
1174 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
1175 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
1177 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1179 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
1180 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
1181 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
1182 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
1184 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
1185 documentation of ylwrap.
1186 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
1187 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,
1188 tests/yaccpp.test: Adjust.
1190 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
1192 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.
1193 * automake.texi (Obsolete macros): Document AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.

1196 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
1197 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
1198 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
1199 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
1200 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
1201 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
1204 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
1205 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
1206 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
1207 if the default acdir does not exist.
1209 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
1210 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
1213 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
1215 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
1217 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1219 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
1220 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
1221 (menu): Unify node naming.
1222 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
1224 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
1226 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1228 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
1229 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.
1230 (Auxiliary Programs, Install, Dist, Third-Party Makefiles)
1231 (distcleancheck): More cross references.
1232 * doc/amhello/configure.ac, doc/amhello/README,
1233 doc/amhello/Makefile.am, doc/amhello/src/Makefile.am,
1234 doc/amhello/src/main.c: New files.
1235 * doc/Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Distribute them.
1236 ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): New rule.
1237 (dist_doc_DATA): Install amhello-1.0.tar.gz.
1238 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Update comment.
1240 2006-08-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1242 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
1244 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
1246 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
1247 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
1248 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
1249 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
1250 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
1251 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
1252 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
1253 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
1254 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
1255 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
1256 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
1258 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
1259 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1260 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
1262 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1264 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
1266 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
1267 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1268 other built scripts.
1270 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1271 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1272 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1273 * tests/init.test: New file.
1274 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1276 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1278 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
1279 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
1280 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
1281 `make distdir' instead.
1283 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1285 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1286 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1287 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1289 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1290 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1291 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1292 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1293 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1294 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1296 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1297 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1298 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1299 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1300 if we cannot create this file.
1301 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1302 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1303 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1305 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1307 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1308 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1309 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1310 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1312 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1313 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1315 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1317 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1319 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1320 can install only one file at a time.
1321 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1322 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1323 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1324 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1325 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1326 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1327 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1328 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1329 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1330 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1331 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1332 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1333 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1334 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1335 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1336 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1337 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1338 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1339 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1340 traditional implementations.
1342 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1344 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1346 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1348 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1349 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1350 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1352 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1353 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1355 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1356 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1357 computed by config.status.
1358 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1359 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1362 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1363 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1365 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1366 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1367 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1369 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1371 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1373 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1375 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1377 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1378 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1380 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1381 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1382 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1383 Fix some comment typos.
1385 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1387 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1388 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1389 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1391 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1394 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1395 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1396 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1397 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1398 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1400 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1402 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1404 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1405 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1407 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1408 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1409 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1412 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1414 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1416 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1418 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1419 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1420 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1422 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1424 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1425 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1426 directory component.
1427 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1429 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1430 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1431 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1433 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1435 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1436 New upstream versions.
1438 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1440 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1441 repository, they use SVN now.
1443 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1445 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1446 savannah.nongnu.org.
1448 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1450 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1451 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1452 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1454 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1456 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1457 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1458 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1459 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1460 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1461 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1462 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1464 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1466 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1468 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1469 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1471 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1472 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1474 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1475 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1476 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1477 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1478 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1480 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1482 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1484 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1485 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1486 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1489 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1490 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1493 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1494 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1495 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1497 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1499 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1500 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1502 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1505 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1506 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1509 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1510 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1511 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1513 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1514 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1515 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1516 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1518 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1519 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1520 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1522 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1523 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1524 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1527 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1528 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1529 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1532 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1533 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1534 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1537 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1538 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1539 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1540 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1542 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1543 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1544 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1545 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1546 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1547 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
1550 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
1552 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
1554 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1556 * lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
1558 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1560 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1561 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1562 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1563 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1565 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1567 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1568 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1569 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1570 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1571 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1572 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1573 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1574 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1877 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1878 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1879 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it

1945 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1946 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1947 if the usual candidates show up.

2027 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and

2038 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
2040 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
2041 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
2042 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
2043 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited

2340 2005-03-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2342 * doc/automake.texi (Uniform): Use xmldir instead of htmldir as
