566 Report and suggestions by Reuben Thomas.
569 2007-01-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
571 * tests/defs.in (is_newest): Cope with multiple newer files.
572 * NEWS: mention `install-sh -C'.
574 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
576 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
577 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
578 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
579 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff
581 Use LC_ALL before invoking 'ls' when we depend on its output format.
582 Don't use awk; just use the shell's builtin features.
583 Clean up $dsttmp if -C detects no installation is needed.
584 * tests/defs.in (is_newest): Renamed from is_younger; the new
585 name is more accurate. All uses changed.
586 (old_timestamp): New var.
587 * tests/instsh2.test: Rewrite to avoid the need for sleeping.
589 2006-12-25 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
591 * lib/install-sh: Implement install-sh -C.
592 (This patch is the remaining part of the patch proposed in
593 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)
594 (usage): Document it.
595 (copy_on_change): New var.
596 * tests/defs.in (is_younger): New function.

601 * lib/install-sh: Fix typo in previous patch for handling --.
602 Use more-consistent style for ';;'.
603 Prefer || to if-then-else-:.
604 * tests/install2.test: Rework to avoid set -e problems.
606 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
608 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
609 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in
610 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)
611 * lib/install-sh (usage): Use usual GNU style.
612 (dstarg): Rename as...
613 (dst_arg): this for consistency.
614 Simplify quoting of assignments.
616 Don't use '\' to continue commands: && suffices.
617 Remove useless "continue" in the argument processing,
618 and factor the shifts.
619 * tests/defs.in: Some improvements to make it set -e clean.
620 Use the traditional ":" trick to protect loops from being empty.
621 Remove an empty straightforward piece of code prepared to define
622 additional variables.
623 Use test instead of [], for consistency.
624 * tests/install2.test: Use set -e, to simplify code.
626 2006-12-20 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org> (tiny change)
628 * doc/automake.texi: Fix typo.
630 2006-11-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
632 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
633 amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
634 it does not understand.
635 Report by Patrick Welche.
637 * lib/gnupload: Revert last change. Add pointer to upload
638 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
639 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
641 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
643 * lib/gnupload: Add missing 'gnu' to example URL.
644 Report by Karl Berry.
646 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)
648 * doc/automake.texi (amhello Explained): autoconf creates
649 configure, not configure.ac.
652 2006-10-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
654 * doc/automake.texi (Dist, Dependency Tracking Evolution):

667 2006-10-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
669 * lib/gnupload: Update to version 1.1 of directive file.
671 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
673 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
674 right before the expanded source file name.
675 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
676 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
677 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
678 %sourceflags accordingly.
679 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...
680 (%lang_specific_files): ...this and...
681 (handle_languages): ...adjust here. Pass flag in SOURCEFLAG.
682 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Add AC_FC_SRCEXT.
683 (Fortran 9x Support): Update.
684 * tests/fort2.test: New test.
685 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
686 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.

704 * tests/libexec.test: New test.
705 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
706 Suggested by Eric Blake.

717 * lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
719 * lib/am/depend2.am: Typo.
720 * lib/depcomp (scriptversion): Bump, to account for recent changes.
722 * doc/automake.texi (Examples): Introduce the example, and point

726 2006-10-15 Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@n-dimensional.de>
727 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

744 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Improve warning for mismatched
747 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
748 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
749 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
751 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
754 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and
755 preprocessed Assembler, assuming that all understand `-c -o'.
756 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
757 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
758 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
759 Report by Thomas Schwinge.
761 * automake.in (%_macro_for_cond): New variable.
762 (cond_stack_if): Use it for better error message about
763 missing dependency tracking conditionals.
764 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
765 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
766 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
768 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
769 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
770 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
772 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
773 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
775 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
776 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
777 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
778 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
779 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
780 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
782 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
783 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
784 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
785 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
786 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
788 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
789 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
791 * automake.in ($seen_gettext_intl): New variable.
792 (handle_gettext): Consider it.
793 (scan_autoconf_traces): Add AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR to the list.
794 Set $seen_gettext_intl when it is seen.
795 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
796 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
797 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
799 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
801 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
802 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
803 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
804 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
805 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
806 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
807 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
808 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
809 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
811 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
813 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
815 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
817 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
818 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
820 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
822 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
824 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
827 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
828 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
830 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
832 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
833 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
834 Report by Patrick Welche.
836 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
838 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
839 against currently running test for the first and last element
840 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
842 * tests/check6.test: Update.
844 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
847 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
848 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
849 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
850 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
851 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
853 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
855 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
856 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
858 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
859 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
861 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
863 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
866 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
867 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
868 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
869 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
870 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
871 and non-VPATH builds.
873 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
875 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
876 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
878 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
880 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
881 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
882 Report from Bruno Haible.
884 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
886 * NEWS: Mark de-ANSI-fication as being obsolete.
887 * doc/automake.texi: Likewise.
889 2006-08-21 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
891 * Makefile.am, THANKS: Fix typos.
893 2006-08-20 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
895 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9c.
897 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
899 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
901 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
903 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
905 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
906 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
907 Directory Variables".
909 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
912 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
913 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
915 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
917 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
918 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
919 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
920 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
922 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
923 documentation of ylwrap.
924 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
925 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,
926 tests/yaccpp.test: Adjust.
928 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
930 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.
931 * automake.texi (Obsolete macros): Document AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.
932 * lib/am/data.am, lib/am/distdir.am, lib/am/install.am,
933 lib/am/java.am, lib/am/libs.am, lib/am/lisp.am, lib/am/ltlib.am,
934 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
935 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
936 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
937 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
938 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
939 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
942 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
943 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
944 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
945 if the default acdir does not exist.
947 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
948 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
951 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
953 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
955 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
957 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
958 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
959 (menu): Unify node naming.
960 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
962 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
964 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
966 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
967 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.
968 (Auxiliary Programs, Install, Dist, Third-Party Makefiles)
969 (distcleancheck): More cross references.
970 * doc/amhello/configure.ac, doc/amhello/README,
971 doc/amhello/Makefile.am, doc/amhello/src/Makefile.am,
972 doc/amhello/src/main.c: New files.
973 * doc/Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Distribute them.
974 ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): New rule.
975 (dist_doc_DATA): Install amhello-1.0.tar.gz.
976 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Update comment.
978 2006-08-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
980 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
982 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
984 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
985 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
986 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
987 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
988 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
989 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
990 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
991 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
992 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
993 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
994 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
996 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
997 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
998 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
1000 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1002 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
1004 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
1005 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1006 other built scripts.
1008 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1009 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1010 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1011 * tests/init.test: New file.
1012 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1014 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1016 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
1017 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
1018 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
1019 `make distdir' instead.
1021 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1023 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1024 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1025 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1027 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1028 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1029 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1030 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1031 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1032 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1034 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1035 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1036 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1037 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1038 if we cannot create this file.
1039 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1040 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1041 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1043 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1045 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1046 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1047 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1048 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1050 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1051 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1053 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1055 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1057 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1058 can install only one file at a time.
1059 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1060 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1061 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1062 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1063 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1064 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1065 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1066 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1067 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1068 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1069 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1070 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1071 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1072 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1073 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1074 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1075 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1076 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1077 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1078 traditional implementations.
1080 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1082 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1084 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1086 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1087 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1088 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1090 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1091 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1093 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1094 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1095 computed by config.status.
1096 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1097 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1100 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1101 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1109 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1111 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1113 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1115 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1116 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1118 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1119 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1120 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1121 Fix some comment typos.
1123 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1125 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1126 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1127 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1129 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1132 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1133 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1134 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1135 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1136 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1138 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.

1145 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1146 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1147 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1150 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1152 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1154 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1156 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1157 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1158 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1160 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1162 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1163 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1164 directory component.
1165 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1167 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.

1181 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1183 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1184 savannah.nongnu.org.
1186 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1189 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1190 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1192 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1194 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1195 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1196 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1197 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1198 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1199 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1200 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1202 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1204 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1206 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1207 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1209 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1210 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1212 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1213 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1214 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1215 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1216 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1218 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1220 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1222 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1223 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1224 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1227 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1228 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1231 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1232 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1233 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1235 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1238 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1240 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1243 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1244 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1247 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1248 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1249 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1251 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1252 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1253 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1254 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1256 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1257 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1258 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1260 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1261 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1262 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1265 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1266 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1267 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1270 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1271 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1272 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1275 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1276 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1277 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1278 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1280 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1281 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1282 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1283 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1284 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1285 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1299 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1300 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1301 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1303 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1305 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1306 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1307 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1308 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1309 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1310 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1311 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1312 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1570 (fill_dist_dirs): New function extracted from handle_dist.
1571 (handle_dist, handle_configure): Use fill_dist_dirs.
1572 * tests/distdir.test: Test for cases where $(top_srcdir) or
1573 $(srcdir) appear in EXTRA_DIST. Report from Sander Niemeijer.
1575 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1576 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1578 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1579 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1582 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1584 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1585 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1587 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1589 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1590 suggested by Eric Blake.
1592 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1594 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1595 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1598 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1600 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1602 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1604 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1606 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1608 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1609 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1610 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1612 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1614 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1615 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1616 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1617 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1618 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1620 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1622 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1624 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1626 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1628 * lib/am/ltlib.am (uninstall-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Do not put
1629 shell in verbose mode.
1631 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1633 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1634 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1635 Report from Juergen Leising.
1637 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1638 $(MAKE) invocations.
1639 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1641 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1642 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1643 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1644 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1646 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1647 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1649 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1651 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1652 the $(infodir) exists.
1654 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1656 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1658 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1660 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1661 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1663 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1664 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1665 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1666 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1667 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1668 for missing files that can be installed.
1669 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1671 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1673 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1674 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1676 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1677 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1678 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1680 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1682 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1683 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1684 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1685 if the usual candidates show up.
1687 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1689 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1691 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1693 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1696 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1698 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1699 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1701 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1703 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1704 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1706 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1708 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1709 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1712 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1714 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1715 fix an underful hbox.
1716 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1717 New upstream versions.
1719 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1721 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1723 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1725 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1726 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1727 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1728 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1729 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1731 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1733 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1734 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1735 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1737 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1739 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1740 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1741 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1742 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1744 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1746 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1747 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1748 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1749 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1750 Report from Noah Friedman.
1752 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1753 Report from Karl Berry.
1755 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1756 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1758 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1759 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1760 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1762 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1764 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1765 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1766 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1767 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1768 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1769 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1770 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1771 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1772 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1774 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1776 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1778 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1779 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1780 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1781 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1782 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1784 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1786 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1787 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1789 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1791 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1792 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1793 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1794 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1795 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1796 Report from Bob Proulx.
1798 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1800 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1802 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1804 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1806 Fix PR automake/461:
1807 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1808 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1809 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1810 Report from Tom Tromey.
