555 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
557 Suggestion by Claudio Fontana.

584 * NEWS: mention `install-sh -C'.
586 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
588 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
589 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
590 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
591 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff
593 Use LC_ALL before invoking 'ls' when we depend on its output format.
594 Don't use awk; just use the shell's builtin features.
595 Clean up $dsttmp if -C detects no installation is needed.
596 * tests/defs.in (is_newest): Renamed from is_younger; the new
597 name is more accurate. All uses changed.
598 (old_timestamp): New var.
599 * tests/instsh2.test: Rewrite to avoid the need for sleeping.
601 2006-12-25 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

604 (This patch is the remaining part of the patch proposed in
605 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)

618 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
620 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
621 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in
622 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)
623 * lib/install-sh (usage): Use usual GNU style.
624 (dstarg): Rename as...
625 (dst_arg): this for consistency.
626 Simplify quoting of assignments.
628 Don't use '\' to continue commands: && suffices.

631 * tests/defs.in: Some improvements to make it set -e clean.
632 Use the traditional ":" trick to protect loops from being empty.
633 Remove an empty straightforward piece of code prepared to define
634 additional variables.
635 Use test instead of [], for consistency.
636 * tests/install2.test: Use set -e, to simplify code.

640 * doc/automake.texi: Fix typo.
642 2006-11-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
644 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
645 amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
646 it does not understand.
647 Report by Patrick Welche.
649 * lib/gnupload: Revert last change. Add pointer to upload
650 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
651 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
653 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
655 * lib/gnupload: Add missing 'gnu' to example URL.
656 Report by Karl Berry.
658 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)
660 * doc/automake.texi (amhello Explained): autoconf creates
661 configure, not configure.ac.
664 2006-10-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

683 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
685 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
686 right before the expanded source file name.
687 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
688 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
689 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
690 %sourceflags accordingly.
691 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...
692 (%lang_specific_files): ...this and...
693 (handle_languages): ...adjust here. Pass flag in SOURCEFLAG.

756 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Improve warning for mismatched
759 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
760 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
761 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
763 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
766 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and
767 preprocessed Assembler, assuming that all understand `-c -o'.
768 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
769 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
770 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
771 Report by Thomas Schwinge.

775 missing dependency tracking conditionals.
776 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
777 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
778 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
780 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
781 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
782 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
784 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
785 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
787 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
788 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
789 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
790 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
791 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
792 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
794 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
795 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
796 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
797 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
798 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
800 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
801 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
803 * automake.in ($seen_gettext_intl): New variable.
804 (handle_gettext): Consider it.

808 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
809 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
811 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
813 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
814 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
815 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
816 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
817 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
818 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
819 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
820 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
821 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
823 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
825 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
827 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
829 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
830 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
832 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
834 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
836 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
839 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
840 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
842 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

846 Report by Patrick Welche.
848 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
850 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
851 against currently running test for the first and last element
852 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
854 * tests/check6.test: Update.
856 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
859 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
860 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
861 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
862 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
863 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
865 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
867 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
868 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
870 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
871 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
873 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
875 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
878 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
879 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
880 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
881 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
882 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
883 and non-VPATH builds.
885 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
887 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
888 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
890 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
892 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
893 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
894 Report from Bruno Haible.

913 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
915 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
917 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
918 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
919 Directory Variables".
921 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
924 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
925 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
927 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
929 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
930 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
931 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
932 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
934 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
935 documentation of ylwrap.

946 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
947 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
948 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
949 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
950 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
951 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
954 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
955 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
956 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
957 if the default acdir does not exist.
959 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
960 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development

974 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
976 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
978 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
979 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.

996 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
997 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
998 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
999 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
1000 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
1001 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
1002 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
1003 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
1004 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
1005 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.

1009 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1010 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
1012 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1014 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
1016 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
1017 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1018 other built scripts.
1020 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1021 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1022 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1023 * tests/init.test: New file.
1024 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1026 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1028 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
1029 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
1030 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
1031 `make distdir' instead.
1033 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1035 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1036 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1037 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1039 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1040 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1041 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1042 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1043 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1044 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1046 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1047 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1048 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1049 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1050 if we cannot create this file.
1051 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1052 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1053 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1055 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1057 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1058 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1059 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1060 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1062 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1063 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1065 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1067 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1069 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1070 can install only one file at a time.
1071 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1072 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1073 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1074 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1075 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1076 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1077 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1078 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1079 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1080 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1081 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1082 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1083 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1084 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1085 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1086 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1087 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1088 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1089 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1090 traditional implementations.
1092 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1094 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1096 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1098 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1099 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1100 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1102 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1103 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1105 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1106 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1107 computed by config.status.
1108 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1109 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1112 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1113 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1115 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1116 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.

1121 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1123 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1125 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1127 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1128 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1130 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1131 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1132 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1133 Fix some comment typos.
1135 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1137 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1138 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1139 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1141 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1144 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1145 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1146 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1147 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1148 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1150 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.

1157 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1158 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1159 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1162 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1164 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1166 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1168 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1169 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1170 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1172 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1174 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1175 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1176 directory component.
1177 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1179 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1180 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.

1191 repository, they use SVN now.
1193 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1195 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1196 savannah.nongnu.org.
1198 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1200 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1201 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1202 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1204 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1206 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1207 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1208 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1209 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1210 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1211 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1212 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1214 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1216 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1218 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1219 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1221 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1222 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1224 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1225 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1226 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1227 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1228 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1230 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1232 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1234 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1235 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1236 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1239 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1240 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1243 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1244 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1245 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.

1250 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1252 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1255 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1256 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1259 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1260 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1261 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1263 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1264 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1265 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1266 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1268 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1269 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1270 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1272 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1273 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1274 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1277 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1278 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1279 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1282 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1283 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1284 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1287 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1288 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1289 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1290 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1292 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1293 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1294 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1295 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1296 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1297 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1311 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1312 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1313 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1315 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1317 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1318 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1319 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1320 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1321 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1322 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1323 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1324 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1568 Mention the file extensions that usually appear in _DEPENDENCIES,
1569 and point to BUILT_SOURCES and example of _DEPENDENCIES uses. A
1570 couple of people have been listing sources files in _DEPENDENCIES
1573 * doc/automake.texi: Bump copyright year.
1574 * automake.in ($gen_copyright, version): Likewise.
1575 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal, version): Likewise.

1581 (generate_makefile): Compute it.
1582 (fill_dist_dirs): New function extracted from handle_dist.
1583 (handle_dist, handle_configure): Use fill_dist_dirs.
1584 * tests/distdir.test: Test for cases where $(top_srcdir) or
1585 $(srcdir) appear in EXTRA_DIST. Report from Sander Niemeijer.
1587 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1588 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1590 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1591 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1594 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1596 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1597 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1599 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1601 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1602 suggested by Eric Blake.
1604 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1606 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1607 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1610 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1612 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1614 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1616 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1618 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1620 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1621 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1622 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1624 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1626 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1627 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1628 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1629 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1630 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1632 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1634 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1636 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1638 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1641 shell in verbose mode.
1643 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1645 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1646 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1647 Report from Juergen Leising.
1649 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1650 $(MAKE) invocations.
1651 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1653 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1654 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1655 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1656 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1658 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1659 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1661 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1663 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1664 the $(infodir) exists.
1666 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1668 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1670 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1672 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1673 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1675 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1676 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1677 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1678 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1679 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1680 for missing files that can be installed.
1681 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1683 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1685 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1686 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1688 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1689 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1690 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1692 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1694 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1695 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1696 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1697 if the usual candidates show up.
1699 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1701 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1703 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1705 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1708 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1710 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1711 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1713 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1715 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1716 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1718 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1720 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1721 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1724 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1726 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1727 fix an underful hbox.
1728 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1729 New upstream versions.
1731 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1733 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1735 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1737 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1738 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1739 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1740 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1741 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1743 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1745 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1746 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1747 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1749 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1751 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1752 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1753 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1754 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1756 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1758 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1759 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1760 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1761 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1762 Report from Noah Friedman.
1764 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1765 Report from Karl Berry.
1767 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1768 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1770 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1771 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1772 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1774 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1776 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1777 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1778 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1779 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1780 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1781 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1782 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1783 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1784 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1786 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1788 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1790 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1791 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1792 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1793 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1794 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1796 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1798 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1799 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1801 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1803 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1804 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1805 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1806 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1807 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1808 Report from Bob Proulx.
1810 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1812 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1814 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1816 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1818 Fix PR automake/461:
1819 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1820 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1821 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1822 Report from Tom Tromey.

2405 Fix handling of per-target flags in link rules.
2406 * automake.in (define_per_target_linker_variable): New function.
2407 (handle_programs, handle_ltlibraries): Use it.
2408 (%link_languages): New map.
2409 (register_language): Fill it.
2410 * lib/am/ltlibrary.am (%LTLIBRARY%): Do not append
2411 $(%XLTLIBRARY%_LDFLAGS) to the command, this is now done by
2412 define_per_target_linker_variable if needed.
2413 * lib/am/program.am (%PROGRAM%%EXEEXT%): Likewise with
2414 $(%XPROGRAM%_LDFLAGS).
2415 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Mention
2416 AM_LDFLAGS and AM_LIBTOOLFLAGS in the definition of maude_LDFLAGS
2417 and maude_LIBTOOLFLAGS.

2429 * automake.in (substitute_ac_subst_variables_worker,
2430 substitute_ac_subst_variables): Mew functions.
2431 (rewrite_inputs_into_dependencies): Use substitute_ac_subst_variables
2432 to ignore dependencies that contain unAC_SUBSTed shell variables.
2433 (handle_configure): Likewise, do not output rules for
2434 AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_FILES, and AC_CONFIG_LINKS targets that
2435 unAC_SUBSTed contain shell variables.
2436 * tests/autohdr4.test: Use an AC_SUBST variable in a specification.
2437 * tests/output11.test, tests/output12.test: New files.
