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

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

636 Use the traditional ":" trick to protect loops from being empty.
637 Remove an empty straightforward piece of code prepared to define
638 additional variables.
639 Use test instead of [], for consistency.
640 * tests/install2.test: Use set -e, to simplify code.

644 * doc/automake.texi: Fix typo.
646 2006-11-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
648 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
649 amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
650 it does not understand.
651 Report by Patrick Welche.
653 * lib/gnupload: Revert last change. Add pointer to upload
654 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
655 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
657 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
659 * lib/gnupload: Add missing 'gnu' to example URL.
660 Report by Karl Berry.
662 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)
664 * doc/automake.texi (amhello Explained): autoconf creates
665 configure, not configure.ac.
668 2006-10-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
670 * doc/automake.texi (Dist, Dependency Tracking Evolution):

685 * lib/gnupload: Update to version 1.1 of directive file.
687 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
689 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
690 right before the expanded source file name.
691 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
692 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
693 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
694 %sourceflags accordingly.
695 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...
696 (%lang_specific_files): ...this and...
697 (handle_languages): ...adjust here. Pass flag in SOURCEFLAG.

760 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Improve warning for mismatched
763 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
764 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
765 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
767 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
770 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and
771 preprocessed Assembler, assuming that all understand `-c -o'.
772 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
773 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
774 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
775 Report by Thomas Schwinge.

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

812 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
813 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
815 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
817 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
818 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
819 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
820 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
821 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
822 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
823 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
824 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
825 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
827 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
829 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
831 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
833 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
834 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
836 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
838 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
840 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
843 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
844 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
846 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

849 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
850 Report by Patrick Welche.
852 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
854 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
855 against currently running test for the first and last element
856 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
858 * tests/check6.test: Update.
860 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
863 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
864 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
865 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
866 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
867 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
869 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
871 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
872 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
874 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
875 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
877 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
879 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
882 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
883 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
884 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
885 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
886 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
887 and non-VPATH builds.
889 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
891 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
892 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
894 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
896 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
897 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
898 Report from Bruno Haible.
900 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

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

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

978 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
980 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
982 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
983 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.

1000 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
1001 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
1002 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
1003 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
1004 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
1005 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
1006 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
1007 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
1008 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
1009 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.

1018 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
1020 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
1021 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1022 other built scripts.
1024 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1025 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1026 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1027 * tests/init.test: New file.
1028 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1030 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1033 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
1034 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use

1037 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1039 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1040 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1041 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1043 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1044 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1045 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1046 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1047 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1048 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1050 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1051 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1052 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1053 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1054 if we cannot create this file.
1055 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1056 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1057 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1059 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1061 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1062 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1063 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1064 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1066 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1067 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1069 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1071 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1073 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1074 can install only one file at a time.
1075 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1076 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1077 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1078 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1079 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1080 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1081 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1082 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1083 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1084 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1085 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1086 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1087 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1088 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1089 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1090 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1091 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1092 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1093 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1094 traditional implementations.
1096 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1098 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1100 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1102 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1103 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1104 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1106 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1107 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1109 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1110 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1111 computed by config.status.
1112 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1113 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1116 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1117 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1119 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1120 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1121 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1123 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1125 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1127 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1129 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1131 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1132 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1134 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1135 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1136 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1137 Fix some comment typos.
1139 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1141 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1142 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1143 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1145 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1148 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1149 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1150 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1151 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1152 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1154 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1156 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1158 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1159 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1161 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1162 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1163 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1166 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1168 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1170 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1172 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1173 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1174 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1176 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1178 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1179 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1180 directory component.
1181 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1183 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1184 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.

1190 New upstream versions.
1192 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1194 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1195 repository, they use SVN now.
1197 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1199 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1200 savannah.nongnu.org.
1202 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1204 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1205 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1206 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1208 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1210 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1211 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1212 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1213 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1214 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1215 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1216 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1218 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1220 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1222 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1223 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1225 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1226 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1228 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1229 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1230 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1231 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1232 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1234 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1236 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1238 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1239 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1240 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1243 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1244 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1247 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1248 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1249 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1251 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1253 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1254 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1256 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1259 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1260 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1263 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1264 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1265 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1267 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1268 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1269 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1270 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1272 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1273 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1274 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1276 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1277 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1278 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1281 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1282 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1283 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1286 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1287 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1288 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1291 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1292 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1293 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1294 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1296 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1297 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1298 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1299 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1300 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1301 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1312 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1314 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1315 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1316 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1317 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1319 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1321 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1322 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1323 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1324 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1325 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1326 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1327 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1328 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1331 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1333 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
1334 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
1335 Report from Paul Lunau.

1569 2006-01-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1571 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1572 Mention the file extensions that usually appear in _DEPENDENCIES,
1573 and point to BUILT_SOURCES and example of _DEPENDENCIES uses. A
1574 couple of people have been listing sources files in _DEPENDENCIES
1577 * doc/automake.texi: Bump copyright year.
1578 * automake.in ($gen_copyright, version): Likewise.
1579 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal, version): Likewise.
1581 2006-01-05 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1582 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1584 * automake.in (topsrcdir): New global.
1585 (generate_makefile): Compute it.
1586 (fill_dist_dirs): New function extracted from handle_dist.
1587 (handle_dist, handle_configure): Use fill_dist_dirs.
1588 * tests/distdir.test: Test for cases where $(top_srcdir) or
1589 $(srcdir) appear in EXTRA_DIST. Report from Sander Niemeijer.
1591 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1592 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1594 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1595 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1598 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1600 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1601 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1603 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1605 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1606 suggested by Eric Blake.
1608 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1610 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1611 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1614 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1616 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1618 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1620 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1622 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1624 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1625 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1626 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1628 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1630 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1631 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1632 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1633 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1634 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1636 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1638 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1640 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1642 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1645 shell in verbose mode.
1647 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1649 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1650 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1651 Report from Juergen Leising.
1653 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1654 $(MAKE) invocations.
1655 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1657 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1658 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1659 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1660 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1662 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1663 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1665 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1667 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1668 the $(infodir) exists.
1670 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1672 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1674 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1676 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1677 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1679 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1680 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1681 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1682 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1683 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1684 for missing files that can be installed.
1685 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1687 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1689 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1690 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1692 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1693 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1694 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1696 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1698 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1699 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1700 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1701 if the usual candidates show up.
1703 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1705 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1707 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1709 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1712 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1714 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1715 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1717 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1719 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1720 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1722 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1724 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1725 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1728 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1730 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1731 fix an underful hbox.
1732 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1733 New upstream versions.
1735 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1737 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1739 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1741 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1742 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1743 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1744 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1745 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1747 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1749 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1750 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1751 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1753 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1755 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1756 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1757 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1758 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1760 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1762 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1763 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1764 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1765 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1766 Report from Noah Friedman.
1768 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1769 Report from Karl Berry.
1771 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1772 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1774 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1775 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1776 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1778 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1780 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1781 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1782 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1783 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1784 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1785 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1786 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1787 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1788 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1790 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1792 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1794 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1795 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1796 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1797 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1798 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1800 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1802 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1803 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1805 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1807 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1808 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1809 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1810 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1811 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1812 Report from Bob Proulx.
1814 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1816 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1818 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1820 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1822 Fix PR automake/461:
1823 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1824 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1825 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1826 Report from Tom Tromey.
