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>.

536         For PR automake/501:
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.

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.

565         * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.

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.

694         * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp.  Show an example of script
695         built from configure.ac.  Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
696         other built scripts.
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.

713         * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"

715         conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
716         handled.
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

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
739         depdir computation.
740         * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
741         Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
742         main program.
743         * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
745 2006-07-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

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.

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.

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.

901         `configure'.
902         * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
903         * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise.  Do not override by setting

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

915         java.test failure.

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

952         subdirectory so that `.' in $PATH does not lead to an endless
953         loop.
955         * lib/depcomp (ia64hp): Rename dependency style to..
956         (hp2): ..this, as it works with aCC on HPPA, too; adjust

960         * tests/aclocal7.test: Add `$sleep's between file touching
961         and automake resp aclocal+automake invocations, to ensure

963         file.
965         * lib/missing: Remove superfluous quotes.  Replace all uses of
966         `[' by `test', for consistency, and for..

991         the other ways that mkdir_p might be set.
