264 2006-12-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
266 * lib/install-sh (initialize_posix_glob): New var.
267 Use it instead of setting posix_glob inline.
268 (posix_glob): Use '?'/''/: instead of ''/yes/no, for convenience.
269 (cmpprog, CMPPROG): New vars, since we use cmp rather than the diff

296 2006-12-24 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
298 Simplify install-sh and its test. This shouldn't change any behavior.
299 (This patch is a subset of the patch proposed in

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

328 instructions of the GNU Maintenance Instructions.
329 Suggestion by Karl Berry.
331 2006-11-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

334 Report by Karl Berry.
336 2006-10-28 Bobby Jack <bobbykjack@yahoo.co.uk> (tiny change)

463 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.

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

489 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
491 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
492 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
493 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
494 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
495 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
496 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
497 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
498 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
499 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
501 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)

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

528 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
529 against currently running test for the first and last element
530 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
532 * tests/check6.test: Update.
534 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
537 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
538 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
539 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
540 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
541 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
543 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
545 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
546 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
548 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
549 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
551 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
553 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
556 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
557 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
558 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
559 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
560 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
561 and non-VPATH builds.

568 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
570 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
571 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
572 Report from Bruno Haible.

593 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
595 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
596 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
597 Directory Variables".
599 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
602 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
603 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
605 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
607 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
608 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
609 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
610 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
612 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
613 documentation of ylwrap.

624 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
625 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
626 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
627 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
628 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
629 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
632 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
633 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
634 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
635 if the default acdir does not exist.
637 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
638 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
641 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
643 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
645 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

676 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
677 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
678 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.

681 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
682 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
683 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
684 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
686 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
687 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
688 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
690 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
692 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
694 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
695 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
698 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
699 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
700 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
701 * tests/init.test: New file.
702 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
704 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
706 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
707 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
708 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
709 `make distdir' instead.
711 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
713 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
714 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
715 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
717 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
718 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
719 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
720 Report from Bas Wijnen.
721 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
722 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
724 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
725 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
726 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
727 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
728 if we cannot create this file.
729 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
730 (unlink_tmp): New function.
731 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
733 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
735 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
736 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
737 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
738 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
740 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
741 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
743 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
745 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
747 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
748 can install only one file at a time.
749 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
750 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
751 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
752 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
753 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
754 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
755 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
756 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
757 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
758 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
759 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
760 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
761 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
762 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
763 intermediate directories; this is safer.
764 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
765 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
766 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
767 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
768 traditional implementations.
770 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
772 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
774 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
776 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
777 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
778 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
780 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
781 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
783 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
784 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
785 computed by config.status.
786 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
787 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
790 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
791 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
793 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
794 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
795 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
797 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
799 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
801 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
803 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
805 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
806 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
808 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
809 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
810 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
811 Fix some comment typos.
813 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
815 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
816 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
817 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
819 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
822 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
823 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
824 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
825 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
826 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
828 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
830 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
832 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
833 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
835 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
836 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
837 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
840 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
842 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
844 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
846 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
847 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
848 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
850 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
852 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
853 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
855 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
857 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
858 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
859 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
861 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
863 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
864 New upstream versions.
866 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
868 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
869 repository, they use SVN now.
871 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
873 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
876 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
878 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
879 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
880 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
882 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
884 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
885 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
886 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
887 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
888 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
889 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
890 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
892 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
894 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
896 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
897 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
899 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
900 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
902 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
903 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
904 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
905 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
906 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
908 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
910 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
912 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
913 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
914 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
917 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
918 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
921 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
922 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
923 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
925 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
927 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
928 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
930 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
933 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
934 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
937 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
938 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
939 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
941 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
942 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
943 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
944 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
946 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
947 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
948 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.
950 * tests/mkinst3.test: Fix `mkdir' wrapper to not be confused
951 if ``pwd`' contains the string `-p'. Create the wrapper in a
952 subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
955 * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
956 (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust
957 comment. Report by Olivier Fourdan (PR automake/481).
960 * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
961 and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure
962 they complete with a time stamp strictly later than the touched
965 * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes. Replace all uses of
966 `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..
967 * tests/missing5.test: ..this new test.
968 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
970 * lib/missing (sed_minuso, sed_output): New variables.
971 (autom4te, help2man, makeinfo): Use them. Unifies detection of
972 `-o FILE', `--output FILE', `--output=FILE', stricter regex.
973 Fixes `missing' to detect `--output' for help2man. Fixes
974 PR automake/483. Report by Dennis J. Linse.
975 (autom4te): Document in `missing --help'.
978 2006-04-26 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnu.org> (tiny change)
980 * doc/automake.texi (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Fix typo.
982 2006-04-25 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
984 * lib/install-sh: Simplify the expr implementation of dirname.
986 2006-04-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
988 * lib/install-sh: Handle --, and diagnose unknown options.
989 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): In the normal case, set
990 mkdir_p='mkdir -p', not to 'mkdir -p --', for consistency with
991 the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
993 2006-04-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
995 * m4/amversion.in (_AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION): New macro.
996 (AM_SET_CURRENT_AUTOMAKE_VERSION): Call it.
997 * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): Trace _AM_AUTOCONF_VERSION.
998 (write_aclocal): Output a check for Autoconf's version in aclocal.m4.
999 Doing so ensures that users cannot build configure and Makefiles
1000 with two different autoconf versions. Report from Noah Misch.
1001 * tests/missing4.test: New file.
1002 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1004 2006-04-20 Paul Lunau <temp@lunau.me.uk> (tiny change)
1005 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1007 * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Fail when at least one test
1008 failed, instead of when the last one failed (PR automake/488).
1009 Report from Paul Lunau.
1010 * tests/dejagnu4.test: Update to expose this.
1013 2006-04-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1015 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Match XFAIL_TESTS delimited by
1016 TABs as well as spaces. Fixes PR automake/490.
1017 * tests/check6.test: New test.
1018 * tests/Makefile.am, THANKS: Update.
1019 Report from Diab Jerius <djerius@cfa.harvard.edu>.
1021 2006-04-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1023 * lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm (find_file): Fix a typo in the
1024 description; eliminate the duplicate error message.
1025 * doc/automake.texi (@direntry): `Invoking Automake' is the name
1026 of the usage node for `automake'
1027 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_gen_varname): Fix typos in the
1030 2006-04-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1032 * m4/lispdir.m4 (AM_PATH_LISPDIR): Require Autoconf 2.59c,
1033 because it uses `datarootdir'. Bump copyright year and serial.
1035 2006-04-10 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1039 2006-04-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1041 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_hash_varname, _hash_values): New functions.
1042 (_gen_varname): Use _hash_values, and return a flag indicating whether
1043 the variable name was generated or reused.
1044 (transform_variable_recursively): Do not redefine variables that
1045 are reused, and try to reuse the variable being transformed.
1046 * tests/check2.test: Make sure TESTS hasn't been redefined.
1047 * tests/check5.test, tests/exeext4.test: Make sure variables have

1058 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add substign.m4.
1059 * m4/cond.m4: _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE $1_TRUE and $1_FALSE (PR automake/477).
1060 * m4/depend.m4: _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE AMDEPBACKSLASH.
1061 * m4/protos.m4: _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE ANSI2KNR.

1266 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1268 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
1269 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
1272 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1274 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that

1277 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1279 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',

1305 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
1306 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
1307 This has the side effect of fixing `install-sh -d' to not fail if it
1308 loses the race in creating the last path component against another
1310 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
1312 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1341 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if

1344 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

1353 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's

1358 for missing files that can be installed.

1372 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
1373 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
1374 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
1375 if the usual candidates show up.
1377 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1379 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.

1391 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1393 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
1394 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
1396 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
1398 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
1399 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their

1416 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
1417 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
1418 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
1419 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.

1429 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
1430 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
1431 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
1432 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.

1450 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
1452 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1454 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
1455 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
1456 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
1457 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
1458 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
1459 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
1460 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
1461 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
1462 Report from Ed Hartnett.

1466 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
1468 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
1469 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
1470 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
1471 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
1472 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
1474 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1476 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

1494 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1496 Fix PR automake/461:
1497 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
1498 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
