558 * doc/automake.texi (Subpackages): Fix ambiguous wording.
559 Report and suggestions by Reuben Thomas.
562 2007-01-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
564 * tests/defs.in (is_newest): Cope with multiple newer files.
565 * NEWS: mention `install-sh -C'.
567 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
569 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
570 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
571 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
572 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff
574 Use LC_ALL before invoking 'ls' when we depend on its output format.
575 Don't use awk; just use the shell's builtin features.
576 Clean up $dsttmp if -C detects no installation is needed.
577 * tests/defs.in (is_newest): Renamed from is_younger; the new
578 name is more accurate. All uses changed.
579 (old_timestamp): New var.
580 * tests/instsh2.test: Rewrite to avoid the need for sleeping.
582 2006-12-25 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
584 * lib/install-sh: Implement install-sh -C.
585 (This patch is the remaining part of the patch proposed in
586 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)
587 (usage): Document it.
588 (copy_on_change): New var.
589 * tests/defs.in (is_younger): New function.

595 Use more-consistent style for ';;'.
596 Prefer || to if-then-else-:.
597 * tests/install2.test: Rework to avoid set -e problems.
599 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
601 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
602 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in
603 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2006-10/msg00077.html>.)
604 * lib/install-sh (usage): Use usual GNU style.
605 (dstarg): Rename as...
606 (dst_arg): this for consistency.
607 Simplify quoting of assignments.
609 Don't use '\' to continue commands: && suffices.
610 Remove useless "continue" in the argument processing,
611 and factor the shifts.
612 * tests/defs.in: Some improvements to make it set -e clean.
613 Use the traditional ":" trick to protect loops from being empty.
614 Remove an empty straightforward piece of code prepared to define
615 additional variables.
616 Use test instead of [], for consistency.
617 * tests/install2.test: Use set -e, to simplify code.
619 2006-12-20 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org> (tiny change)
621 * doc/automake.texi: Fix typo.
623 2006-11-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
625 * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
626 amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
627 it does not understand.
628 Report by Patrick Welche.
630 * lib/gnupload: Revert last change. Add pointer to upload
631 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
632 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
634 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
636 * lib/gnupload: Add missing 'gnu' to example URL.
637 Report by Karl Berry.
639 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)
641 * doc/automake.texi (amhello Explained): autoconf creates
642 configure, not configure.ac.
645 2006-10-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
647 * doc/automake.texi (Dist, Dependency Tracking Evolution):

662 * lib/gnupload: Update to version 1.1 of directive file.
664 2006-10-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
666 * lib/am/depend2.am (%SOURCEFLAG%): New substitution, goes
667 right before the expanded source file name.
668 * automake.in (%sourceflags): New global: per-extension flag
669 to denote that the next compiler argument is the source file.
670 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_FC_SRCEXT; initialize
671 %sourceflags accordingly.
672 (handle_single_transform): Store source file extension in...
673 (%lang_specific_files): ...this and...
674 (handle_languages): ...adjust here. Pass flag in SOURCEFLAG.
675 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Add AC_FC_SRCEXT.
676 (Fortran 9x Support): Update.
677 * tests/fort2.test: New test.
678 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
679 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.

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

737 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Improve warning for mismatched
740 * automake.in: For preprocessed assembler, add `$(DEFS)
741 $(DEFAULT_INCLUDES) $(INCLUDES)' to the compile rule.
742 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Update.
744 Suggested by Thomas Schwinge and Ralf Corsepius.
747 * automake.in (output_flag): Set to `-o' for Assembler and
748 preprocessed Assembler, assuming that all understand `-c -o'.
749 * THANKS, NEWS: Update.
750 * tests/subobj10.test: New test.
751 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
752 Report by Thomas Schwinge.

756 missing dependency tracking conditionals.
757 * tests/asm2.test: New test, modeled after asm.test.
758 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
759 Report by Ralf Corsepius.
761 * doc/automake.texi (Options): `no-dependencies' is similar
762 to `--ignore-deps', not `--include-deps'.
763 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): If `no-dependencies', do not invoke
765 * tests/nodep2.test: New test.
766 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
768 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): If we are in the
769 LIBOBJDIR, then we should not add a DEPDIR prefix.
770 * tests/pr401.test: Update test.
771 * tests/pr401b.test: Likewise.
772 * tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
773 Report by Jim Meyering and Eric Blake.
775 * lib/depcomp (gcc3): Put dependency extraction flags before the
776 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
777 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
778 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
779 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
781 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
782 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
784 * automake.in ($seen_gettext_intl): New variable.
785 (handle_gettext): Consider it.
786 (scan_autoconf_traces): Add AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR to the list.
787 Set $seen_gettext_intl when it is seen.
788 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
789 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
790 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
792 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
794 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
795 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
796 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
797 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
798 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
799 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
800 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
801 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
802 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
804 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
806 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
808 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
810 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
811 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
813 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
815 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
817 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
820 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
821 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
823 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
825 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
826 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
827 Report by Patrick Welche.
829 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
831 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
832 against currently running test for the first and last element
833 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
835 * tests/check6.test: Update.
837 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
840 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
841 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
842 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
843 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
844 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
846 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
848 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
849 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
851 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
852 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
854 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
856 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
859 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
860 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
861 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
862 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
863 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
864 and non-VPATH builds.
866 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
868 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
869 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
871 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
873 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
874 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
875 Report from Bruno Haible.
877 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
879 * NEWS: Mark de-ANSI-fication as being obsolete.
880 * doc/automake.texi: Likewise.

884 * Makefile.am, THANKS: Fix typos.
886 2006-08-20 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
888 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9c.
890 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
892 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
894 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
896 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
898 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
899 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
900 Directory Variables".
902 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
905 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
906 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
908 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
910 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
911 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
912 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
913 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
915 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
916 documentation of ylwrap.
917 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
918 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,
919 tests/yaccpp.test: Adjust.
921 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
923 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.

927 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
928 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
929 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
930 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
931 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
932 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
935 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
936 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
937 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
938 if the default acdir does not exist.
940 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
941 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
944 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
946 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
948 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
950 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
951 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
952 (menu): Unify node naming.
953 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
955 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
957 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
959 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
960 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.
961 (Auxiliary Programs, Install, Dist, Third-Party Makefiles)
962 (distcleancheck): More cross references.
963 * doc/amhello/configure.ac, doc/amhello/README,
964 doc/amhello/Makefile.am, doc/amhello/src/Makefile.am,
965 doc/amhello/src/main.c: New files.
966 * doc/Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Distribute them.
967 ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): New rule.
968 (dist_doc_DATA): Install amhello-1.0.tar.gz.
969 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Update comment.
971 2006-08-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
973 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
975 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
977 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
978 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
979 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
980 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
981 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
982 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
983 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
984 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
985 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
986 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
987 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
989 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
990 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
991 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
993 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
995 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
997 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
998 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1001 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1002 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
1003 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1004 * tests/init.test: New file.
1005 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1007 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1009 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
1010 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
1011 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
1012 `make distdir' instead.
1014 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1016 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1017 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1018 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1020 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1021 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1022 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1023 Report from Bas Wijnen.
1024 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1025 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1027 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1028 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
1029 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1030 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
1031 if we cannot create this file.
1032 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1033 (unlink_tmp): New function.
1034 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1036 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1038 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1039 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1040 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1041 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1043 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1044 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1046 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1048 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1050 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1051 can install only one file at a time.
1052 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1053 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1054 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1055 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
1056 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1057 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1058 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1059 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1060 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1061 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1062 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1063 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1064 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1065 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1066 intermediate directories; this is safer.
1067 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1068 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1069 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1070 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1071 traditional implementations.
1073 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1075 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1077 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1079 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1080 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1081 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1083 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1084 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1086 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1087 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1088 computed by config.status.
1089 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1090 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1093 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
1094 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1108 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1109 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1111 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1112 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1113 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1114 Fix some comment typos.
1116 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1118 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1119 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1120 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
1122 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1125 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1126 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1127 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1128 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1129 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1131 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.

1138 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1139 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1140 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1143 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
1145 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.

1149 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1150 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
1151 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
1153 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1155 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1156 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1157 directory component.

1176 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1177 savannah.nongnu.org.

1182 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1183 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1185 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1187 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1188 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1189 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1190 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
1191 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1192 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1193 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1195 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1197 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1199 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1200 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1202 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
1203 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1205 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1206 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
1207 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1208 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1209 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
1211 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1213 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1215 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1216 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1217 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
1220 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1221 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1224 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1225 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1226 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.

1231 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1233 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1236 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1237 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1240 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
1241 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
1242 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
1244 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
1245 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
1246 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
1247 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
1249 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
1250 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
1251 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
1253 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
1254 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
1255 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
1258 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
1259 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
1260 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
1263 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
1264 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
1265 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
1268 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
1269 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
1270 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
1271 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1273 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
1274 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
1275 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
1276 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
1277 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
1278 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.

1292 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
1293 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
1294 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
1296 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1298 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
1299 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
1300 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
1301 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
1302 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1303 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1304 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1305 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1568 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
1569 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1571 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1572 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1575 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1577 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
1578 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
1580 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1582 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
1583 suggested by Eric Blake.
1585 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1587 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
1588 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
1591 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1593 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
1595 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1597 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
1599 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
1601 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
1602 * m4/strip.m4: Ditto.
1603 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
1605 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1607 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
1608 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1609 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1610 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1611 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1613 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1615 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1617 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
1619 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1621 * lib/am/ltlib.am (uninstall-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Do not put
1622 shell in verbose mode.
1624 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1626 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
1627 value of a conditionally defined variable.
1628 Report from Juergen Leising.
1630 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
1631 $(MAKE) invocations.
1632 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1634 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
1635 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
1636 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
1637 Report from Stepan Kasal.
1639 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
1640 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
1642 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1644 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
1645 the $(infodir) exists.
1647 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1649 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
1651 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1653 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
1654 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
1656 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
1657 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
1658 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
1659 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
1660 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
1661 for missing files that can be installed.
1662 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
1664 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1666 * tests/defs.in: When required matches both `*libtool*' and
1667 `*gettext*', check for both m4 files.
1669 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix a typo.
1670 * tests/suffix11.test: Fix a typo.
1671 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
1673 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1675 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1676 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1677 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1678 if the usual candidates show up.
1680 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1682 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
1684 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1686 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
1689 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1691 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
1692 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
1694 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1696 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1697 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1699 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1701 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1702 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
1705 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1707 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
1708 fix an underful hbox.
1709 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1710 New upstream versions.
1712 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1714 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
1716 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1718 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
1719 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1720 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1721 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1722 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
1724 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
1726 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
1727 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
1728 Report from Harald Dunkel.
1730 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
1732 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1733 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1734 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1735 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
1737 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1739 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
1740 `mkdir -p' does not work.
1741 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
1742 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
1743 Report from Noah Friedman.
1745 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
1746 Report from Karl Berry.
1748 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1749 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1751 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
1752 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
1753 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1755 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1757 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1758 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1759 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1760 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1761 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1762 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1763 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1764 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1765 Report from Ed Hartnett.
1767 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1769 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1771 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1772 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1773 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1774 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1775 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1777 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1779 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1780 Fix redirections in previous patch.
1782 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1784 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1785 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
1786 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
1787 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
1788 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
1789 Report from Bob Proulx.
1791 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
1793 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
1795 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
1797 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1799 Fix PR automake/461:
1800 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1801 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
1802 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
1803 Report from Tom Tromey.
