567 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
569 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
570 right before the expanded source file name.
571 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
572 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
573 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
574 %sourceflags accordingly.
575 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...
576 (%lang_specific_files): ...this and...
577 (handle_languages): ...adjust here. Pass flag in SOURCEFLAG.

592 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
593 Report by Davyd Madeley and Shannon L. Brown.
595 * lib/am/header-vars.am (pkglibexecdir): New variable.
596 * automake.in (%standard_prefix): Add it.
597 * doc/automake.texi (Uniform): Document it.
598 (Program Sources): Adjust.
600 * tests/libexec.test: New test.
601 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
602 Suggested by Eric Blake.

606 * lib/gnupload: Update to version 1.1 of directive file.
608 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.10a.
610 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.10.
611 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update for 1.10.
613 * lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
615 * lib/am/depend2.am: Typo.

618 * doc/automake.texi (Examples): Introduce the example, and point
620 (Hello): Remove this obsolete node.
622 2006-10-15 Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@n-dimensional.de>
623 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
626 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): filename-length-max check is not
627 done in sub-packages.

635 * doc/automake.texi (Third-Party Makefiles): Fix typo.
638 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
640 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Improve warning for mismatched
643 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
644 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
645 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
647 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
650 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and
651 preprocessed Assembler, assuming that all understand `-c -o'.
652 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
653 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
654 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
655 Report by Thomas Schwinge.
657 * automake.in (%_macro_for_cond): New variable.
658 (cond_stack_if): Use it for better error message about
659 missing dependency tracking conditionals.
660 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
661 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
662 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
664 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
665 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
666 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
668 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
669 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
671 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
672 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
673 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
674 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
675 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
676 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
678 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
679 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
680 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
681 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
682 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
684 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
685 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
687 * automake.in ($seen_gettext_intl): New variable.
688 (handle_gettext): Consider it.
689 (scan_autoconf_traces): Add AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR to the list.
690 Set $seen_gettext_intl when it is seen.
691 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
692 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
693 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
695 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
697 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
698 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
699 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
700 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
701 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
702 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
703 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
704 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
705 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
707 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
709 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
711 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
713 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
714 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
716 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
718 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
720 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
723 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
724 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
726 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
728 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.

730 Report by Patrick Welche.
732 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
734 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
735 against currently running test for the first and last element
736 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
738 * tests/check6.test: Update.
740 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
743 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
744 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
745 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
746 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
747 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
749 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
751 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
752 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
754 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
755 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
757 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
759 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
762 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
763 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
764 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
765 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
766 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
767 and non-VPATH builds.
769 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
771 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
772 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
774 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
776 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
777 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
778 Report from Bruno Haible.
780 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
782 * NEWS: Mark de-ANSI-fication as being obsolete.

793 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
795 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
797 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
799 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
801 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
802 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
803 Directory Variables".
805 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
808 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
809 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
811 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
813 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
814 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
815 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
816 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
818 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
819 documentation of ylwrap.

830 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
831 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
832 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
833 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
834 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
835 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
838 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
839 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
840 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
841 if the default acdir does not exist.
843 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
844 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
847 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
849 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
851 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
853 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
854 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
855 (menu): Unify node naming.
856 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
858 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
860 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
862 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
863 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.
864 (Auxiliary Programs, Install, Dist, Third-Party Makefiles)
865 (distcleancheck): More cross references.
866 * doc/amhello/configure.ac, doc/amhello/README,
867 doc/amhello/Makefile.am, doc/amhello/src/Makefile.am,
868 doc/amhello/src/main.c: New files.
869 * doc/Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Distribute them.
870 ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): New rule.
871 (dist_doc_DATA): Install amhello-1.0.tar.gz.

876 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
878 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
880 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
881 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
882 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
883 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
884 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
885 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
886 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
887 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
888 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
889 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
890 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
892 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
893 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
894 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
896 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
898 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
900 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
901 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
904 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
905 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
906 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
907 * tests/init.test: New file.
908 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
910 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
912 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
913 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
914 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
915 `make distdir' instead.
917 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
919 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
920 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
921 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
923 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
924 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
925 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
926 Report from Bas Wijnen.
927 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
928 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
930 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
931 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
932 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
933 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
934 if we cannot create this file.
935 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
936 (unlink_tmp): New function.
937 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
939 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
941 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
942 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
943 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
944 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
946 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
947 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
949 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
951 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
953 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
954 can install only one file at a time.
955 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
956 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
957 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
958 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
959 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
960 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
961 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
962 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
963 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
964 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
965 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
966 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
967 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
968 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
969 intermediate directories; this is safer.
970 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
971 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
972 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
973 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
974 traditional implementations.
976 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
978 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
980 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
982 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
983 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
984 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
986 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
987 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
989 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
990 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
991 computed by config.status.
992 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
993 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
996 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
997 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
999 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1000 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1001 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1003 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1005 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1007 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1009 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1011 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1012 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1014 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1015 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1016 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1017 Fix some comment typos.
1019 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1021 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1022 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1023 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1025 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1028 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1029 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1030 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1031 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1032 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1034 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1036 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1038 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1039 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1041 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1042 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1043 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1046 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1048 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1050 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1052 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1053 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1054 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1056 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1058 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1059 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1060 directory component.
1061 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1063 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1064 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1065 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1067 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1069 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:

1075 repository, they use SVN now.
1077 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1079 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1080 savannah.nongnu.org.

1085 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1086 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1088 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1090 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1091 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1092 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1093 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1094 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1095 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1096 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1098 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1100 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1102 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1103 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1105 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1106 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1108 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1109 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1110 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1111 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1112 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1114 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1116 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1118 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1119 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1120 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1123 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1124 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1127 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...

1134 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1136 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1139 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1140 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1143 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1144 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1145 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1147 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1148 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1149 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1150 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1152 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1153 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1154 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1156 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1157 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1158 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless

1162 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1163 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1166 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1167 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1168 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1171 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1172 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1173 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1174 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1176 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1177 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1178 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1179 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1180 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1181 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1195 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1196 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1197 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1199 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1201 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1202 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1203 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1204 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1205 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1206 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1207 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1208 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1511 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1512 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.

1567 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1569 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and

1572 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1573 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1574 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1576 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1578 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1579 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1580 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1581 if the usual candidates show up.
1583 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1585 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1587 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1589 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1592 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1594 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1595 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1597 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1599 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1600 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1602 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1604 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1605 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1608 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1610 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1611 fix an underful hbox.
1612 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1613 New upstream versions.
1615 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1617 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1619 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1621 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1622 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1623 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1624 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1625 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1627 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1629 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1630 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1631 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1633 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1635 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1636 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1637 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1638 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1640 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1642 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1643 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1644 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1645 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1646 Report from Noah Friedman.
1648 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1649 Report from Karl Berry.
1651 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1652 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1654 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1655 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1656 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1658 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1660 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1661 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1662 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1663 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1664 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1665 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1666 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1667 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1668 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1670 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1672 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1674 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1675 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1676 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1677 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1678 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1680 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1682 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1683 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1685 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1687 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1688 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1689 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1690 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1691 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1692 Report from Bob Proulx.
1694 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1696 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1698 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1700 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1702 Fix PR automake/461:
1703 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1704 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1705 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1706 Report from Tom Tromey.
