601 * NEWS: mention `install-sh -C'.
603 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
605 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
606 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
607 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
608 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff
610 Use LC_ALL before invoking 'ls' when we depend on its output format.
611 Don't use awk; just use the shell's builtin features.
612 Clean up $dsttmp if -C detects no installation is needed.
613 * tests/defs.in (is_newest): Renamed from is_younger; the new
614 name is more accurate. All uses changed.

635 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
637 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
638 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in
639 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)
640 * lib/install-sh (usage): Use usual GNU style.
641 (dstarg): Rename as...
642 (dst_arg): this for consistency.

649 Use the traditional ":" trick to protect loops from being empty.
650 Remove an empty straightforward piece of code prepared to define
651 additional variables.
652 Use test instead of [], for consistency.
653 * tests/install2.test: Use set -e, to simplify code.

661 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
662 amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
663 it does not understand.
664 Report by Patrick Welche.
666 * lib/gnupload: Revert last change. Add pointer to upload
667 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
668 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
670 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
672 * lib/gnupload: Add missing 'gnu' to example URL.
673 Report by Karl Berry.
675 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)
677 * doc/automake.texi (amhello Explained): autoconf creates
678 configure, not configure.ac.
681 2006-10-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

700 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
702 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
703 right before the expanded source file name.
704 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
705 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
706 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
707 %sourceflags accordingly.
708 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...
709 (%lang_specific_files): ...this and...

776 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
777 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
778 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
780 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
783 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and

785 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
786 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
787 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
788 Report by Thomas Schwinge.

792 missing dependency tracking conditionals.
793 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
794 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
795 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
797 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
798 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
799 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
801 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
802 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
804 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
805 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
806 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
807 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
808 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
809 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
811 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
812 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
813 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
814 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
815 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
817 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
818 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

825 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
826 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
828 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
830 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
831 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
832 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
833 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
834 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
835 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
836 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
837 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
838 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
840 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
842 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
844 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
846 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
847 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.

853 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
856 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
857 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
859 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

863 Report by Patrick Welche.
865 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
867 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
868 against currently running test for the first and last element
869 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
871 * tests/check6.test: Update.
873 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
876 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
877 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
878 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
879 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
880 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
882 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
884 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
885 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
887 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
888 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
890 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
892 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
895 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
896 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
897 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
898 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
899 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
900 and non-VPATH builds.
902 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
904 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
905 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
907 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
909 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
910 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
911 Report from Bruno Haible.
913 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

932 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
934 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
935 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
936 Directory Variables".
938 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
941 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
942 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
944 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
946 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
947 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
948 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
949 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
951 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
952 documentation of ylwrap.

963 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
964 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
965 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
966 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
967 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
968 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
971 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
972 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
973 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
974 if the default acdir does not exist.
976 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:

1014 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
1015 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.

1034 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1035 other built scripts.
1037 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1038 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1039 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1040 * tests/init.test: New file.
1041 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1043 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1046 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.

1050 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1052 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1053 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1054 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1056 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1057 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1058 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1059 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1060 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1061 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1063 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1064 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1065 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1066 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1067 if we cannot create this file.
1068 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1069 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1070 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1072 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1074 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1075 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1076 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1077 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1079 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1080 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1082 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1084 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1086 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1087 can install only one file at a time.
1088 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1089 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1090 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1091 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1092 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1093 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1094 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1095 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1096 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1097 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1098 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1099 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1100 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1101 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1102 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1103 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1104 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1105 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1106 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1107 traditional implementations.
1109 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1111 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1113 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1115 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1116 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1117 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1119 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1120 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1122 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1123 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1124 computed by config.status.
1125 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1126 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1129 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1130 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1132 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1133 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1134 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1136 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1138 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1140 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1142 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1144 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1145 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1147 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1148 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1149 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1150 Fix some comment typos.
1152 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1154 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1155 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1156 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1158 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1161 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1162 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1163 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1164 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1165 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1167 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1169 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1171 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1172 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1174 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1175 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1176 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1179 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1181 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1183 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1185 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1186 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1187 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1189 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1191 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1192 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1193 directory component.
1194 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1196 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1197 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.

1203 New upstream versions.
1205 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1207 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1208 repository, they use SVN now.
1210 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1212 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1213 savannah.nongnu.org.
1215 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1217 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1218 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1219 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1221 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1223 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1224 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1225 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1226 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1227 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1228 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1229 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1231 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1233 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1235 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1236 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1238 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1239 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1241 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1242 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1243 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1244 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1245 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1247 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1249 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1251 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1252 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1253 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1256 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1257 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1260 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1261 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1262 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1264 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1266 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1267 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1269 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1272 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1273 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1276 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1277 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1278 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1280 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1281 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1282 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1283 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1285 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1286 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1287 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1289 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1290 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1291 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1294 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1295 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1296 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1299 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1300 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1301 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1304 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1305 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1306 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1307 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1309 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1310 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1311 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1312 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1313 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1314 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1325 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1327 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1328 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1329 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1330 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1332 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1334 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1335 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1336 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1337 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1338 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1339 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1340 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1341 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1577 2006-01-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1579 * lib/am/texinfos.am (dist-info): Tighten glob to avoid unwanted
1580 extra files in distribution. Reported by Vincent Lefevre.
1582 2006-01-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1584 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1585 Mention the file extensions that usually appear in _DEPENDENCIES,
1586 and point to BUILT_SOURCES and example of _DEPENDENCIES uses. A
1587 couple of people have been listing sources files in _DEPENDENCIES
1590 * doc/automake.texi: Bump copyright year.
1591 * automake.in ($gen_copyright, version): Likewise.
1592 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal, version): Likewise.

1598 (generate_makefile): Compute it.
1599 (fill_dist_dirs): New function extracted from handle_dist.
1600 (handle_dist, handle_configure): Use fill_dist_dirs.
1601 * tests/distdir.test: Test for cases where $(top_srcdir) or
1602 $(srcdir) appear in EXTRA_DIST. Report from Sander Niemeijer.
1604 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1605 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1607 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1608 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1611 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1613 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1614 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1616 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1618 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1619 suggested by Eric Blake.
1621 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1623 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1624 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1627 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1629 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1631 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1633 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1635 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1637 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1638 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1639 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1641 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1643 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1644 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1645 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1646 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1647 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1649 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1651 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1653 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1655 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1658 shell in verbose mode.
1660 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1662 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1663 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1664 Report from Juergen Leising.
1666 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1667 $(MAKE) invocations.
1668 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1670 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1671 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1672 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1673 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1675 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1676 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1678 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1680 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1681 the $(infodir) exists.
1683 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1685 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1687 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1689 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1690 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1692 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1693 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1694 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1695 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1696 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1697 for missing files that can be installed.
1698 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1700 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1702 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1703 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1705 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1706 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1707 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1709 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1711 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1712 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1713 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1714 if the usual candidates show up.
1716 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1718 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1720 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1722 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1725 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1727 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1728 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1730 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1732 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1733 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1735 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1737 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1738 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1741 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1743 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1744 fix an underful hbox.
1745 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1746 New upstream versions.
1748 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1750 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1752 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1754 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1755 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1756 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1757 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1758 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1760 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1762 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1763 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1764 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1766 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1768 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1769 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1770 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1771 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1773 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1775 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1776 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1777 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1778 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1779 Report from Noah Friedman.
1781 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1782 Report from Karl Berry.
1784 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1785 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1787 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1788 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1789 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1791 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1793 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1794 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1795 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1796 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1797 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1798 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1799 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1800 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1801 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1803 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1805 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1807 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1808 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1809 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1810 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1811 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1813 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1815 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1816 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1818 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1820 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1821 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1822 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1823 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1824 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1825 Report from Bob Proulx.
1827 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1829 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1831 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1833 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1835 Fix PR automake/461:
1836 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1837 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1838 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1839 Report from Tom Tromey.

2413 * aclocal.in ($ac_defun_rx): Match AU_ALIAS.
2414 * tests/aclocal5.test (MORE_DEFS): Rename as...
2415 (AM_TEST): this so that undefined macros are caught.
2416 And make it an alias of AC_SUBST.

2430 * lib/am/program.am (%PROGRAM%%EXEEXT%): Likewise with
2431 $(%XPROGRAM%_LDFLAGS).
2432 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Mention

2447 substitute_ac_subst_variables): Mew functions.
2448 (rewrite_inputs_into_dependencies): Use substitute_ac_subst_variables
2449 to ignore dependencies that contain unAC_SUBSTed shell variables.
2450 (handle_configure): Likewise, do not output rules for
2451 AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_FILES, and AC_CONFIG_LINKS targets that
2452 unAC_SUBSTed contain shell variables.
2453 * tests/autohdr4.test: Use an AC_SUBST variable in a specification.
