621 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
623 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
624 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
625 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
626 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff
628 Use LC_ALL before invoking 'ls' when we depend on its output format.
629 Don't use awk; just use the shell's builtin features.

653 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
655 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
656 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in

691 Report by Karl Berry.
693 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)

812 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
813 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
815 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
816 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.

819 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
820 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
822 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the

826 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
827 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
829 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
830 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
831 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
832 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
833 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
835 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>

844 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
846 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
848 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
849 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
850 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
851 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
852 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
853 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
854 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
855 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
856 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
858 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)

883 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
885 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
886 against currently running test for the first and last element
887 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
889 * tests/check6.test: Update.
891 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
894 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
895 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
896 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
897 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
898 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
900 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
902 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
903 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf

906 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
908 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
910 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
913 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
914 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
915 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
916 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
917 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
918 and non-VPATH builds.
920 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
922 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.

950 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
952 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
953 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
954 Directory Variables".

959 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
960 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
962 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
964 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
965 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
966 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
967 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
969 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the

981 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
982 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
983 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
984 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
985 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
986 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
989 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
990 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
991 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
992 if the default acdir does not exist.

1052 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1053 other built scripts.
1055 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1056 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1057 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1058 * tests/init.test: New file.
1059 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1061 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1070 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1071 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1072 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1074 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1075 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1076 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1077 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1078 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1079 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1081 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1082 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1083 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1084 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1085 if we cannot create this file.
1086 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1087 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1088 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1090 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1092 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1093 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1094 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1095 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1097 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1098 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1100 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1102 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1104 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1105 can install only one file at a time.
1106 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1107 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1108 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1109 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1110 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1111 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1112 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1113 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1114 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1115 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1116 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1117 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1118 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1119 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1120 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1121 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1122 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1123 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1124 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1125 traditional implementations.
1127 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1129 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1131 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1133 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1134 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1135 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1137 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1138 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1140 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1141 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1142 computed by config.status.
1143 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1144 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1147 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1148 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1150 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1151 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1152 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1154 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1156 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1158 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1160 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1162 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1163 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1165 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1166 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1167 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1168 Fix some comment typos.
1170 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1172 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1173 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1174 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1176 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1179 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1180 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1181 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1182 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1183 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1185 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1187 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1189 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1190 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1192 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1193 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1194 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1197 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1199 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1201 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1203 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1204 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1205 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1207 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1209 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1210 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1211 directory component.
1212 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1214 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1215 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1216 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1218 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1220 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1221 New upstream versions.
1223 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1225 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1226 repository, they use SVN now.
1228 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1230 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1231 savannah.nongnu.org.
1233 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1235 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1236 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1237 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1239 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1241 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1242 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1243 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1244 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1245 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1246 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1247 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1249 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1251 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1253 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1254 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1256 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1257 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1259 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1260 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1261 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1262 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1263 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1265 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1267 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1269 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1270 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1271 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1274 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1275 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1278 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1279 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1280 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1282 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1284 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1285 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1287 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1290 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1291 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1294 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1295 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1296 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1298 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1299 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1300 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1301 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1303 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1304 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1305 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1307 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1308 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1309 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1312 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1313 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1314 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1317 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1318 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1319 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1322 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1323 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1324 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1325 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1327 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1328 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1329 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1330 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1331 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1332 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1343 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1345 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1346 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1347 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1348 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1350 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1352 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1353 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1354 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1355 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1356 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1357 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1358 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1359 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1364 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
1365 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
1366 Report from Paul Lunau.
1367 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.

1437 (scan_configure_dep): Do not search white lines.
1438 (scan_file): Strip comments from current line after checking

1576 2006-01-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1578 * lib/install-sh (dstdir): Don't use semicolons inside { } in
1579 sed scripts, as Posix says it's not portable.
1580 * lib/missing (file): Likewise.
1581 * lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Likewise.
1582 * tests/comment7.test, tests/comment9.test, tests/confh.test: Likewise

1595 2006-01-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1597 * lib/am/texinfos.am (dist-info): Tighten glob to avoid unwanted
1598 extra files in distribution. Reported by Vincent Lefevre.
1600 2006-01-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1602 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1603 Mention the file extensions that usually appear in _DEPENDENCIES,
1604 and point to BUILT_SOURCES and example of _DEPENDENCIES uses. A
1605 couple of people have been listing sources files in _DEPENDENCIES

1609 * automake.in ($gen_copyright, version): Likewise.
1610 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal, version): Likewise.

1616 (generate_makefile): Compute it.
1617 (fill_dist_dirs): New function extracted from handle_dist.
1618 (handle_dist, handle_configure): Use fill_dist_dirs.
1619 * tests/distdir.test: Test for cases where $(top_srcdir) or
1620 $(srcdir) appear in EXTRA_DIST. Report from Sander Niemeijer.
1622 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1623 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1625 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1626 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1629 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1631 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1632 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1634 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1636 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1637 suggested by Eric Blake.
1639 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1641 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1642 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1645 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1647 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1649 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1651 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1653 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1655 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1656 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1657 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1659 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1661 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1662 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1663 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1664 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1665 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1667 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1669 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1671 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1673 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1676 shell in verbose mode.
1678 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1680 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1681 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1682 Report from Juergen Leising.
1684 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1685 $(MAKE) invocations.
1686 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1688 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1689 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1690 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1691 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1693 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1694 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1696 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1698 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1699 the $(infodir) exists.
1701 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1703 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1705 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1707 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1708 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1710 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1711 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1712 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1713 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1714 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1715 for missing files that can be installed.
1716 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1718 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1720 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1721 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1723 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1724 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1725 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1727 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1729 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1730 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1731 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1732 if the usual candidates show up.
1734 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1736 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1738 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1740 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1743 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1745 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1746 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1748 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1750 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1751 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1753 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1755 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1756 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1759 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1761 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1762 fix an underful hbox.
1763 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1764 New upstream versions.
1766 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1768 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1770 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1772 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1773 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1774 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1775 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1776 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1778 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1780 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1781 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1782 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1784 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1786 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1787 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1788 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1789 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1791 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1793 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1794 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1795 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1796 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1797 Report from Noah Friedman.
1799 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1800 Report from Karl Berry.
1802 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1803 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1805 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1806 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1807 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1809 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1811 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1812 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1813 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1814 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1815 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1816 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1817 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1818 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1819 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1821 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1823 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1825 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1826 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1827 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1828 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1829 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1831 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1833 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1834 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1836 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1838 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1839 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1840 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1841 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1842 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1843 Report from Bob Proulx.
1845 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1847 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1849 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1851 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1853 Fix PR automake/461:
1854 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1855 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1856 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1857 Report from Tom Tromey.

2431 * aclocal.in ($ac_defun_rx): Match AU_ALIAS.
2432 * tests/aclocal5.test (MORE_DEFS): Rename as...
2433 (AM_TEST): this so that undefined macros are caught.
2434 And make it an alias of AC_SUBST.

2469 AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_FILES, and AC_CONFIG_LINKS targets that
2470 unAC_SUBSTed contain shell variables.
