568 * automake.in (%standard_prefix): Add it.
569 * doc/automake.texi (Uniform): Document it.
570 (Program Sources): Adjust.
572 * tests/libexec.test: New test.
573 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
574 Suggested by Eric Blake.

582 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.10.
583 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update for 1.10.
585 * lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
587 * lib/am/depend2.am: Typo.
588 * lib/depcomp (scriptversion): Bump, to account for recent changes.
590 * doc/automake.texi (Examples): Introduce the example, and point
592 (Hello): Remove this obsolete node.
594 2006-10-15 Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@n-dimensional.de>
595 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
598 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): filename-length-max check is not
599 done in sub-packages.
600 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Document this.
601 * tests/fn99subdir.test: New test.
602 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
605 2006-10-14 Alfred M. Szmidt <ams@gnu.org> (tiny change)
607 * doc/automake.texi (Third-Party Makefiles): Fix typo.
610 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
612 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Improve warning for mismatched
615 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
616 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
617 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
619 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
622 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and
623 preprocessed Assembler, assuming that all understand `-c -o'.
624 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
625 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
626 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
627 Report by Thomas Schwinge.
629 * automake.in (%_macro_for_cond): New variable.
630 (cond_stack_if): Use it for better error message about
631 missing dependency tracking conditionals.
632 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
633 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
634 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
636 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
637 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
638 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
640 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
641 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
643 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
644 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
645 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
646 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
647 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
648 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
650 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
651 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
652 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
653 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
654 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
656 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
657 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
659 * automake.in ($seen_gettext_intl): New variable.
660 (handle_gettext): Consider it.
661 (scan_autoconf_traces): Add AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR to the list.
662 Set $seen_gettext_intl when it is seen.
663 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
664 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
665 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
667 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
669 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
670 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
671 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
672 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
673 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
674 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
675 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
676 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
677 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
679 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
681 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
683 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
685 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
686 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
688 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
690 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
692 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
695 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
696 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
698 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
700 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
701 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
702 Report by Patrick Welche.
704 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
706 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
707 against currently running test for the first and last element
708 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
710 * tests/check6.test: Update.
712 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
715 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
716 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
717 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
718 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
719 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
721 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
723 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
724 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
726 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
727 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
729 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
731 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
734 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
735 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
736 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
737 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
738 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
739 and non-VPATH builds.
741 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
743 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
744 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
746 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
748 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
749 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
750 Report from Bruno Haible.
752 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
754 * NEWS: Mark de-ANSI-fication as being obsolete.

767 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
769 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
771 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
773 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
774 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
775 Directory Variables".
777 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
780 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
781 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
783 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
785 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
786 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
787 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
788 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
790 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
791 documentation of ylwrap.

796 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
798 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.
799 * automake.texi (Obsolete macros): Document AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.

802 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
803 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
804 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
805 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
806 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
807 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
810 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
811 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
812 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
813 if the default acdir does not exist.
815 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
816 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
819 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
821 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
823 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
825 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
826 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
827 (menu): Unify node naming.
828 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
830 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
832 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

850 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
852 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
853 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
854 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
855 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
856 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
857 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
858 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
859 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
860 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
861 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
862 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
864 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
865 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
866 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
868 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
870 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
872 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
873 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
876 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
877 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
878 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
879 * tests/init.test: New file.
880 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
882 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
884 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
885 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
886 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
887 `make distdir' instead.
889 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
891 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
892 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
893 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
895 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
896 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
897 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
898 Report from Bas Wijnen.
899 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
900 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
902 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
903 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
904 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
905 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
906 if we cannot create this file.
907 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
908 (unlink_tmp): New function.
909 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
911 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
913 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
914 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
915 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
916 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
918 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
919 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
921 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
923 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
925 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
926 can install only one file at a time.
927 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
928 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
929 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
930 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
931 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
932 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
933 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
934 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
935 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
936 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
937 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
938 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
939 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
940 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
941 intermediate directories; this is safer.
942 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
943 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
944 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
945 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
946 traditional implementations.
948 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
950 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
952 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
954 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
955 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
956 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
958 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
959 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
961 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
962 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
963 computed by config.status.
964 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
965 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
968 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
969 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
971 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
972 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
973 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
975 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
977 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
979 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
981 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
983 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
984 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
986 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
987 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
988 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
989 Fix some comment typos.
991 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
993 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
994 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
995 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
997 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1000 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1001 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1002 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1003 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1004 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1006 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1008 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1010 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1011 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1013 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1014 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1015 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1018 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1020 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1022 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1024 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1025 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1026 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1028 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1030 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1031 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1032 directory component.
1033 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1035 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1036 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1037 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1039 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1041 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1042 New upstream versions.
1044 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1046 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1047 repository, they use SVN now.
1049 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
1051 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1052 savannah.nongnu.org.
1054 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1056 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1057 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1058 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1060 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1062 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1063 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1064 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1065 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1066 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1067 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1068 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1070 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1072 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1074 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1075 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1077 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1078 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1080 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1081 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1082 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1083 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1084 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1086 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1088 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1090 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1091 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1092 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1095 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1096 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1099 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1100 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1101 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.

1106 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1108 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1111 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1112 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1115 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1116 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1117 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1119 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1120 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1121 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1122 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1124 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1125 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1126 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1128 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1129 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1130 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1133 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1134 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1135 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1138 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1139 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1140 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1143 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1144 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1145 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1146 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1148 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1149 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1150 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1151 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1152 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1153 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1167 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1168 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1169 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1171 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1173 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1174 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1175 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1176 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1177 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1178 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.

1483 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1484 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1485 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1486 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1488 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1490 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1531 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's

1550 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1551 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1552 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1553 if the usual candidates show up.

1571 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1572 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1574 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1576 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in

1580 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1583 fix an underful hbox.
1584 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1585 New upstream versions.
1587 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1589 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1591 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1593 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1594 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1595 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1596 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1597 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1599 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1601 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1602 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1603 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1605 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1607 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1608 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1609 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1610 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1612 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1614 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1615 `mkdir -p' does not work.

1621 Report from Karl Berry.
1623 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1624 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1626 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1627 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1628 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1630 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1632 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1633 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1634 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1635 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1636 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1637 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1638 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1639 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1640 Report from Ed Hartnett.

1644 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1646 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1647 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1648 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1649 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1650 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1652 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1654 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

1660 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1661 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1662 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1663 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1664 Report from Bob Proulx.
1666 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1668 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1670 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1672 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1674 Fix PR automake/461:
1675 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1676 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.

1678 Report from Tom Tromey.
