269 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
271 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
272 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
273 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
274 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff

301 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
303 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.

327 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building

333 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
334 Suggestion by Karl Berry.

339 Report by Karl Berry.
341 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)

468 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.

475 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
477 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
478 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
479 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
480 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
481 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
483 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>

494 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
496 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
497 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
498 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
499 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
500 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
501 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
502 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
503 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
504 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
506 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)

533 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
534 against currently running test for the first and last element
535 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
537 * tests/check6.test: Update.
539 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
542 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
543 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
544 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
545 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
546 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
548 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
550 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
551 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf

554 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
556 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
558 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
561 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
562 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
563 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
564 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
565 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
566 and non-VPATH builds.
568 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
570 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
571 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
573 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
575 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
576 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
577 Report from Bruno Haible.

596 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
598 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
600 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
601 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
602 Directory Variables".
604 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
607 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
608 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
610 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
612 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
613 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
614 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
615 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
617 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
618 documentation of ylwrap.

629 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
630 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
631 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
632 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
633 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
634 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
637 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
638 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
639 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
640 if the default acdir does not exist.
642 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
643 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
646 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
648 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
650 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
652 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
653 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.

677 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
679 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
680 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
681 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
682 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
683 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
684 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
685 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
686 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
687 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
688 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
689 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
691 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
692 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
693 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
695 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
697 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
699 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
700 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
703 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
704 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
705 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
706 * tests/init.test: New file.
707 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
709 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
711 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
712 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
713 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
714 `make distdir' instead.
716 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
718 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
719 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
720 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
722 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
723 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
724 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
725 Report from Bas Wijnen.
726 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
727 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
729 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
730 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
731 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
732 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
733 if we cannot create this file.
734 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
735 (unlink_tmp): New function.
736 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
738 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
740 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
741 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
742 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
743 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
745 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
746 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
748 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
750 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
752 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
753 can install only one file at a time.
754 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
755 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
756 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
757 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
758 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
759 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
760 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
761 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
762 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
763 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
764 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
765 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
766 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
767 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
768 intermediate directories; this is safer.
769 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
770 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
771 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
772 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
773 traditional implementations.
775 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
777 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
779 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
781 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
782 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
783 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
785 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
786 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
788 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
789 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
790 computed by config.status.
791 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
792 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
795 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
796 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
798 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
799 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
800 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
802 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
804 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
806 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
808 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
810 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
811 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
813 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
814 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
815 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
816 Fix some comment typos.
818 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
820 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
821 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
822 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
824 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
827 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
828 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
829 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
830 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
831 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
833 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
835 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
837 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
838 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
840 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
841 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
842 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
845 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
847 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
849 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
851 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
852 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
853 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
855 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
857 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
858 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
860 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
862 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
863 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
864 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
866 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
868 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
869 New upstream versions.
871 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
873 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
874 repository, they use SVN now.
876 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
878 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
881 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
883 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
884 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
885 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
887 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
889 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
890 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
891 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
892 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
893 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
894 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
895 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
897 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
899 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
901 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
902 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
904 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
905 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
907 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
908 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
909 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
910 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
911 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
913 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
915 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
917 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
918 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
919 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
922 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
923 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
926 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
927 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
928 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
930 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
932 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
933 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
935 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
938 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
939 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
942 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
943 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
944 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
946 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
947 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
948 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
949 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
951 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
952 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
953 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
955 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
956 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
957 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
960 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
961 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
962 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
965 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
966 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
967 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
970 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
971 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
972 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
973 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
975 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
976 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
977 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
978 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
979 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
980 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
983 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
985 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
987 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
989 * lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
991 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
993 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
994 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
995 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
996 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
998 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1000 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1001 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1002 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1003 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1004 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1005 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1006 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1007 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1009 2006-04-20 Paul Lunau <temp@lunau.me.uk> (tiny change)
1010 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1012 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
1013 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
1014 Report from Paul Lunau.
1015 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.
1018 2006-04-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1020 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Match XFAIL_TESTS delimited by
1021 TABs as well as spaces. Fixes PR automake/490.
1022 * tests/check6.test: New test.
1023 * tests/Makefile.am, THANKS: Update.
1024 Report from Diab Jerius <djerius@cfa.harvard.edu>.
1026 2006-04-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1028 * lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm (find_file): Fix a typo in the
1029 description; eliminate the duplicate error message.
1030 * doc/automake.texi (@direntry): `Invoking Automake' is the name
1031 of the usage node for `automake'
1032 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_gen_varname): Fix typos in the
1035 2006-04-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1037 * m4/lispdir.m4 (AM_PATH_LISPDIR): Require Autoconf 2.59c,
1038 because it uses `datarootdir'. Bump copyright year and serial.
1040 2006-04-10 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1044 2006-04-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1046 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_hash_varname, _hash_values): New functions.
1047 (_gen_varname): Use _hash_values, and return a flag indicating whether
1048 the variable name was generated or reused.
1049 (transform_variable_recursively): Do not redefine variables that
1050 are reused, and try to reuse the variable being transformed.
1051 * tests/check2.test: Make sure TESTS hasn't been redefined.
1052 * tests/check5.test, tests/exeext4.test: Make sure variables have
1054 * tests/subst2.test: Make sure bin_PROGRAMS gets rewritten.
1056 * automake.in (%ignored_configure_vars): New variable.
1057 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE and fill
1058 %ignored_configure_vars.
1059 (define_configure_variable): Declare ignored configure variables
1060 as VAR_SILENT. Do not special-case AMDEPBACKSLASH and ANSI2KNR

1271 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1273 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1274 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1277 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1279 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1280 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1282 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1284 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',

1310 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1311 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1312 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1313 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1315 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1317 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1346 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if

1349 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1358 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's

1363 for missing files that can be installed.

1377 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1378 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1379 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1380 if the usual candidates show up.
1382 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1384 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.

1396 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1398 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1399 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1401 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1403 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1404 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their

1418 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1421 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1422 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1423 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1424 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.

1429 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1430 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1432 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1434 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1435 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1436 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1437 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.

1453 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1454 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1455 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1457 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1459 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1460 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1461 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1462 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1463 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1464 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1465 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1466 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1467 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1469 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1471 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1473 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1474 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1475 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1476 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1477 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1479 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1481 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

1499 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1501 Fix PR automake/461:
1502 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1503 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
