565 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
567 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
568 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
569 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
570 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
571 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
572 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
573 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
574 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
575 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
577 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
579 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
581 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
583 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
584 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
586 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
588 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
590 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
593 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
594 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
596 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
598 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
599 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
600 Report by Patrick Welche.
602 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
604 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
605 against currently running test for the first and last element
606 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
608 * tests/check6.test: Update.
610 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
613 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
614 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
615 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
616 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
617 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
619 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
621 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
622 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
624 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
625 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
627 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
629 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
632 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
633 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
634 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
635 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
636 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
637 and non-VPATH builds.
639 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
641 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
642 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
644 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
646 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
647 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
648 Report from Bruno Haible.
650 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

661 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9c.
663 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
665 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
667 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
669 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
671 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
672 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
673 Directory Variables".
675 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
678 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
679 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
681 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
683 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
684 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
685 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
686 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
688 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
689 documentation of ylwrap.
690 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
691 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,
692 tests/yaccpp.test: Adjust.
694 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
696 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.
697 * automake.texi (Obsolete macros): Document AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.
698 * lib/am/data.am, lib/am/distdir.am, lib/am/install.am,
699 lib/am/java.am, lib/am/libs.am, lib/am/lisp.am, lib/am/ltlib.am,
700 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
701 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
702 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
703 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
704 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
705 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
708 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
709 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
710 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
711 if the default acdir does not exist.
713 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
714 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
717 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
719 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
721 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
723 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
724 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
725 (menu): Unify node naming.
726 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
728 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
730 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
732 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
733 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.

735 (distcleancheck): More cross references.
736 * doc/amhello/configure.ac, doc/amhello/README,
737 doc/amhello/Makefile.am, doc/amhello/src/Makefile.am,
738 doc/amhello/src/main.c: New files.
739 * doc/Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Distribute them.
740 ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): New rule.
741 (dist_doc_DATA): Install amhello-1.0.tar.gz.

746 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
748 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
750 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
751 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
752 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
753 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
754 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
755 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
756 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
757 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
758 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
759 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
760 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
762 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
763 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
764 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
766 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
768 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
770 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
771 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
774 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
775 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
776 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
777 * tests/init.test: New file.
778 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
780 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
782 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
783 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
784 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
785 `make distdir' instead.
787 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
789 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
790 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
791 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
793 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
794 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
795 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
796 Report from Bas Wijnen.
797 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
798 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
800 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
801 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
802 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
803 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
804 if we cannot create this file.
805 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
806 (unlink_tmp): New function.
807 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
809 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
811 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
812 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
813 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
814 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
816 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
817 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
819 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
821 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
823 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
824 can install only one file at a time.
825 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
826 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
827 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
828 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
829 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
830 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
831 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
832 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
833 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
834 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
835 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
836 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
837 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
838 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
839 intermediate directories; this is safer.
840 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
841 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
842 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
843 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
844 traditional implementations.
846 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
848 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
850 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
852 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
853 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
854 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
856 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
857 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
859 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
860 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
861 computed by config.status.
862 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
863 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
866 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
867 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
869 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
870 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
871 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
873 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
875 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
877 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
879 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
881 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
882 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
884 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
885 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
886 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
887 Fix some comment typos.
889 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
891 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
892 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
893 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
895 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
898 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
899 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
900 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
901 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
902 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
904 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
906 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
908 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
909 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
911 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
912 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
913 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
916 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
918 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
920 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
922 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
923 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
924 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
926 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
928 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
929 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
931 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
933 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
934 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
935 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
937 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
939 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
940 New upstream versions.
942 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
944 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
945 repository, they use SVN now.
947 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
949 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
952 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
954 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
955 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
956 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
958 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
960 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
961 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
962 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
963 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
964 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
965 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
966 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
968 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
970 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
972 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
973 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
975 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
976 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
978 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
979 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
980 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
981 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
982 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
984 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
986 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
988 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
989 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
990 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
993 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
994 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
997 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
998 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
999 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1001 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1003 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1004 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1006 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1009 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1010 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1013 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1014 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1015 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1017 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1018 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1019 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1020 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1022 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1023 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1024 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1026 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1027 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1028 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1031 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1032 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1033 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1036 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1037 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1038 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1041 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1042 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1043 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1044 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1046 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1047 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1048 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1049 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1050 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1051 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
1054 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
1056 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
1058 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1060 * lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
1062 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1064 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1065 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1066 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1067 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1069 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1348 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1353 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1355 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',

1381 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1382 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1383 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it

1448 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1449 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1450 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1451 if the usual candidates show up.

1507 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1508 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.

1531 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1532 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper

1542 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1544 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1545 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1546 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1547 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1548 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
