238 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
240 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
241 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
242 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
243 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff

447 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
448 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
449 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.

463 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
465 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
466 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
467 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
468 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
469 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
470 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
471 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
472 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
473 suggested by Stepan Kasal.

502 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
503 against currently running test for the first and last element
504 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
506 * tests/check6.test: Update.
508 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
511 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
512 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
513 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
514 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
515 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
517 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

527 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
530 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
531 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
532 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
533 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
534 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
535 and non-VPATH builds.

567 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
569 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
570 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
571 Directory Variables".
573 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
576 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
577 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
579 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
581 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
582 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
583 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
584 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
586 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
587 documentation of ylwrap.
588 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
589 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,
590 tests/yaccpp.test: Adjust.
592 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
594 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.
595 * automake.texi (Obsolete macros): Document AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.
596 * lib/am/data.am, lib/am/distdir.am, lib/am/install.am,
597 lib/am/java.am, lib/am/libs.am, lib/am/lisp.am, lib/am/ltlib.am,
598 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
599 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
600 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
601 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
602 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
603 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
606 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
607 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
608 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
609 if the default acdir does not exist.
611 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
612 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
615 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
617 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
619 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
621 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
622 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
623 (menu): Unify node naming.
624 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
626 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
628 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
630 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
631 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.
632 (Auxiliary Programs, Install, Dist, Third-Party Makefiles)
633 (distcleancheck): More cross references.
634 * doc/amhello/configure.ac, doc/amhello/README,
635 doc/amhello/Makefile.am, doc/amhello/src/Makefile.am,
636 doc/amhello/src/main.c: New files.
637 * doc/Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Distribute them.
638 ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): New rule.
639 (dist_doc_DATA): Install amhello-1.0.tar.gz.
640 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Update comment.
642 2006-08-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
644 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
646 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
648 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
649 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
650 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
651 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
652 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
653 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
654 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
655 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
656 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
657 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
658 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
660 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
661 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
662 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
664 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
666 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
668 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
669 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
672 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
673 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
674 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
675 * tests/init.test: New file.
676 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
678 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
680 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
681 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
682 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
683 `make distdir' instead.
685 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
687 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
688 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
689 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
691 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
692 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
693 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
694 Report from Bas Wijnen.
695 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
696 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
698 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
699 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
700 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
701 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
702 if we cannot create this file.
703 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
704 (unlink_tmp): New function.
705 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
707 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
709 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
710 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
711 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
712 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
714 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
715 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
717 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
719 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
721 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
722 can install only one file at a time.
723 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
724 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
725 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
726 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
727 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
728 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
729 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
730 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
731 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
732 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
733 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
734 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
735 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
736 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
737 intermediate directories; this is safer.
738 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
739 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
740 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
741 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
742 traditional implementations.
744 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
746 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
748 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
750 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
751 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
752 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
754 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
755 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
757 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
758 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
759 computed by config.status.
760 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
761 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
764 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
765 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
767 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
768 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
769 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
771 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
773 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
775 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
777 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
779 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
780 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
782 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
783 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
784 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
785 Fix some comment typos.
787 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
789 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
790 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
791 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
793 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
796 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
797 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
798 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
799 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
800 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
802 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
804 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
806 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
807 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
809 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
810 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
811 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
814 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
816 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
818 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
820 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
821 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
822 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
824 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
826 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
827 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
829 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
831 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
832 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
833 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
835 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
837 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
838 New upstream versions.
840 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
842 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
843 repository, they use SVN now.
845 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
847 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
850 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
852 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
853 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
854 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
856 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
858 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
859 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
860 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
861 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
862 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
863 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
864 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
866 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
868 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
870 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
871 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
873 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
874 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
876 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
877 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
878 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
879 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
880 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
882 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
884 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
886 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
887 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
888 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
891 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
892 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
895 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
896 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
897 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
899 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
901 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
902 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
904 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
907 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
908 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
911 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
912 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
913 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
915 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
916 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
917 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
918 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
920 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
921 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
922 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
924 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
925 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
926 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
929 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
930 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
931 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
934 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
935 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
936 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
939 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
940 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
941 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
942 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
944 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
945 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
946 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
947 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
948 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
949 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
952 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
954 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
956 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
958 * lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
960 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
962 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
963 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
964 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
965 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
967 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
969 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
970 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
971 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
972 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
973 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
974 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
975 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
976 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
978 2006-04-20 Paul Lunau <temp@lunau.me.uk> (tiny change)
979 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
981 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
982 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
983 Report from Paul Lunau.
984 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.
987 2006-04-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
989 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Match XFAIL_TESTS delimited by
990 TABs as well as spaces. Fixes PR automake/490.
991 * tests/check6.test: New test.
992 * tests/Makefile.am, THANKS: Update.
993 Report from Diab Jerius <djerius@cfa.harvard.edu>.
995 2006-04-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
997 * lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm (find_file): Fix a typo in the
998 description; eliminate the duplicate error message.
999 * doc/automake.texi (@direntry): `Invoking Automake' is the name
1000 of the usage node for `automake'
1001 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_gen_varname): Fix typos in the
1004 2006-04-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1006 * m4/lispdir.m4 (AM_PATH_LISPDIR): Require Autoconf 2.59c,
1007 because it uses `datarootdir'. Bump copyright year and serial.
1009 2006-04-10 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1013 2006-04-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1015 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_hash_varname, _hash_values): New functions.
1016 (_gen_varname): Use _hash_values, and return a flag indicating whether
1017 the variable name was generated or reused.
1018 (transform_variable_recursively): Do not redefine variables that
1019 are reused, and try to reuse the variable being transformed.
1020 * tests/check2.test: Make sure TESTS hasn't been redefined.
1021 * tests/check5.test, tests/exeext4.test: Make sure variables have
1023 * tests/subst2.test: Make sure bin_PROGRAMS gets rewritten.

1027 %ignored_configure_vars.
1028 (define_configure_variable): Declare ignored configure variables
1029 as VAR_SILENT. Do not special-case AMDEPBACKSLASH and ANSI2KNR
1031 * m4/substign.m4: New file.
1032 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add substign.m4.
1033 * m4/cond.m4: _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE $1_TRUE and $1_FALSE (PR automake/477).
1034 * m4/depend.m4: _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE AMDEPBACKSLASH.
1035 * m4/protos.m4: _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE ANSI2KNR.

1054 (scan_configure_dep): Do not search white lines.
1055 (scan_file): Strip comments from current line after checking
1056 for serial, so that aclocal does not trip on `m4_include' macros
1057 in comments. Report from Mike Frysinger.

1240 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1242 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1243 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1246 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1248 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1249 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1251 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1253 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',

1279 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1280 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1281 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1282 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1284 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1286 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1302 $(MAKE) invocations.

1315 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1316 the $(infodir) exists.
1318 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1325 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1327 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's

1332 for missing files that can be installed.
1333 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1335 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1340 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1341 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1342 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1344 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1346 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1347 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1348 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1349 if the usual candidates show up.
1351 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1353 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.

1360 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1362 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1363 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1365 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1367 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1368 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1370 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1372 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1373 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their

1387 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1389 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1390 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1391 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1392 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1393 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1395 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1397 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1398 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1399 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1401 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1403 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1404 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1405 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1406 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1408 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1411 `mkdir -p' does not work.

1419 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1420 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1422 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1423 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1424 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1426 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1428 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1429 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1430 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1431 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1432 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1433 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1434 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1435 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1436 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1438 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1440 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1442 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1443 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1444 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1445 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1446 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1448 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1450 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

1464 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1466 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1468 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1470 Fix PR automake/461:
1471 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1472 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
