565 one. Fixes failure to catch dependencies with libtool and xlc
566 in case of enable_static=no (which is the default on AIX without

614 * NEWS: mention `install-sh -C'.
616 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
618 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
619 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
620 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
621 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff
623 Use LC_ALL before invoking 'ls' when we depend on its output format.
624 Don't use awk; just use the shell's builtin features.
625 Clean up $dsttmp if -C detects no installation is needed.

648 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
650 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
651 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in
652 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)

662 Use the traditional ":" trick to protect loops from being empty.
663 Remove an empty straightforward piece of code prepared to define
664 additional variables.
665 Use test instead of [], for consistency.
666 * tests/install2.test: Use set -e, to simplify code.

674 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
675 amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
676 it does not understand.
677 Report by Patrick Welche.
679 * lib/gnupload: Revert last change. Add pointer to upload
680 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
681 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
683 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
685 * lib/gnupload: Add missing 'gnu' to example URL.
686 Report by Karl Berry.
688 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)
690 * doc/automake.texi (amhello Explained): autoconf creates
691 configure, not configure.ac.
694 2006-10-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

713 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
715 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
716 right before the expanded source file name.
717 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
718 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
719 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
720 %sourceflags accordingly.
721 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...

790 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
791 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
793 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
796 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and

798 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
799 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
800 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
801 Report by Thomas Schwinge.

806 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
807 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
808 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
810 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
811 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
812 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
814 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
815 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
817 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
818 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
819 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
820 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
821 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
822 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
824 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
825 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
826 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
827 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
828 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
830 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
831 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

838 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
839 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
841 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
843 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
844 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
845 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
846 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
847 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
848 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
849 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
850 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
851 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
853 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
855 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.

869 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):

876 Report by Patrick Welche.
878 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
880 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
881 against currently running test for the first and last element
882 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
884 * tests/check6.test: Update.
886 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
889 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
890 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
891 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
892 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
893 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
895 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
897 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
898 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
900 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
901 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
903 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
905 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
908 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
909 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
910 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
911 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
912 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
913 and non-VPATH builds.
915 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
917 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.

920 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
922 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
923 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.

945 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
947 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
948 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
949 Directory Variables".
951 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
954 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
955 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
957 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
959 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
960 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
961 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
962 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
964 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
965 documentation of ylwrap.

976 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
977 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
978 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
979 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
980 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
981 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
984 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
985 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
986 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
987 if the default acdir does not exist.
989 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:

1027 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
1028 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
1029 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
1030 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.

1046 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
1047 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1048 other built scripts.
1050 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1051 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1052 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1053 * tests/init.test: New file.
1054 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1056 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1063 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1065 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1066 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1067 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1069 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1070 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1071 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1072 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1073 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1074 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1076 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1077 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1078 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1079 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1080 if we cannot create this file.
1081 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1082 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1083 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1085 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1087 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1088 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1089 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1090 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1092 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1093 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1095 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1097 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1099 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1100 can install only one file at a time.
1101 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1102 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1103 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1104 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1105 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1106 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1107 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1108 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1109 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1110 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1111 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1112 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1113 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1114 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1115 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1116 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1117 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1118 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1119 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1120 traditional implementations.
1122 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1124 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1126 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1128 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1129 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1130 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1132 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1133 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1135 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1136 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1137 computed by config.status.
1138 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1139 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1142 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1143 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1145 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
1146 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
1147 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1149 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1151 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1153 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1155 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1157 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1158 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1160 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1161 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1162 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1163 Fix some comment typos.
1165 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1167 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1168 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1169 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1171 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1174 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1175 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1176 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1177 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1178 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1180 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1182 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1184 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1185 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1187 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1188 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1189 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1192 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1194 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1196 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1198 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1199 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1200 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1202 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1204 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1205 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1206 directory component.
1207 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1209 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1210 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1211 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1213 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1215 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1216 New upstream versions.
1218 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1220 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1221 repository, they use SVN now.
1223 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1225 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1226 savannah.nongnu.org.
1228 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1230 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1231 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1232 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1234 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1236 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1237 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1238 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1239 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1240 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1241 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1242 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1244 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1246 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1248 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1249 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1251 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1252 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1254 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1255 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1256 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1257 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1258 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1260 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1262 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1264 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1265 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1266 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1269 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1270 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1273 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1274 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1275 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1277 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1279 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1280 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1282 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1285 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1286 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1289 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1290 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1291 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1293 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1294 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1295 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1296 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1298 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1299 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1300 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1302 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1303 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1304 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1307 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1308 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1309 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1312 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1313 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1314 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1317 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1318 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1319 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1320 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1322 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1323 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1324 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1325 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1326 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1327 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
1330 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
1332 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
1334 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1338 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1340 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
1341 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1342 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1343 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1345 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1347 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1348 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1349 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1350 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1351 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1352 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1353 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1354 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1357 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1359 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
1360 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
1361 Report from Paul Lunau.
1362 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.

1432 (scan_configure_dep): Do not search white lines.
1433 (scan_file): Strip comments from current line after checking

1575 * lib/missing (file): Likewise.
1576 * lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Likewise.
1577 * tests/comment7.test, tests/comment9.test, tests/confh.test: Likewise

1582 2006-01-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1584 * ChangeLog: Move 2004's entries to ...

1590 2006-01-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1592 * lib/am/texinfos.am (dist-info): Tighten glob to avoid unwanted
1593 extra files in distribution. Reported by Vincent Lefevre.
1595 2006-01-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1597 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1598 Mention the file extensions that usually appear in _DEPENDENCIES,
1599 and point to BUILT_SOURCES and example of _DEPENDENCIES uses. A
1600 couple of people have been listing sources files in _DEPENDENCIES
1603 * doc/automake.texi: Bump copyright year.
1604 * automake.in ($gen_copyright, version): Likewise.
1605 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal, version): Likewise.

1611 (generate_makefile): Compute it.
1612 (fill_dist_dirs): New function extracted from handle_dist.
1613 (handle_dist, handle_configure): Use fill_dist_dirs.
1614 * tests/distdir.test: Test for cases where $(top_srcdir) or
1615 $(srcdir) appear in EXTRA_DIST. Report from Sander Niemeijer.
1617 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1618 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1620 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1621 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1624 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1626 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1627 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1629 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1631 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1632 suggested by Eric Blake.
1634 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1636 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1637 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1640 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1642 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1644 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1646 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1648 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1650 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1651 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1652 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1654 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1656 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1657 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1658 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1659 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1660 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1662 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1664 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1666 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1668 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1671 shell in verbose mode.
1673 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1675 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1676 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1677 Report from Juergen Leising.
1679 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1680 $(MAKE) invocations.
1681 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1683 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1684 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1685 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1686 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1688 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1689 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1691 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1693 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1694 the $(infodir) exists.
1696 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1698 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1700 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1702 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1703 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1705 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1706 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1707 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1708 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1709 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1710 for missing files that can be installed.
1711 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1713 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1715 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1716 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1718 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1719 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1720 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1722 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1724 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1725 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1726 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1727 if the usual candidates show up.
1729 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1731 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1733 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1735 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1738 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1740 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1741 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1743 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1745 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1746 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1748 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1750 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1751 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1754 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1756 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1757 fix an underful hbox.
1758 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1759 New upstream versions.
1761 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1763 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1765 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1767 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1768 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1769 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1770 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1771 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1773 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1775 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1776 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1777 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1779 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1781 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1782 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1783 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1784 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1786 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1788 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1789 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1790 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1791 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1792 Report from Noah Friedman.
1794 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1795 Report from Karl Berry.
1797 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1798 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1800 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1801 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1802 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1804 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1806 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1807 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1808 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1809 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1810 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1811 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1812 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1813 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1814 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1816 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1818 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1820 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1821 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1822 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1823 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1824 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1826 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1828 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1829 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1831 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1833 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1834 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1835 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1836 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1837 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1838 Report from Bob Proulx.
1840 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1842 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1844 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1846 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1848 Fix PR automake/461:
1849 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1850 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1851 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1852 Report from Tom Tromey.

2426 * aclocal.in ($ac_defun_rx): Match AU_ALIAS.
2427 * tests/aclocal5.test (MORE_DEFS): Rename as...
2428 (AM_TEST): this so that undefined macros are caught.
2429 And make it an alias of AC_SUBST.

2464 AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_CONFIG_FILES, and AC_CONFIG_LINKS targets that
2465 unAC_SUBSTed contain shell variables.
2466 * tests/autohdr4.test: Use an AC_SUBST variable in a specification.
