[platform/upstream/automake.git] / ChangeLog
1 2008-03-11  Peter Breitenlohner  <peb@mppmu.mpg.de>
2
3         Implement the `notrans_' prefix for untransformed manpages.
4         * automake.in (handle_man_pages), lib/am/mans.am: Implement
5         notrans_ prefix for MANS primary and rework dependencies for
6         install-man%SECTION%; use only vars defined in Makefile.am.
7         * doc/automake.texi (Renaming, Uniform, Man pages):
8         Document notrans_ prefix.
9         * NEWS: Update.
10         * tests/notrans.test: New test.
11         * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
12
13         * automake.in (handle_man_pages): Reindent, for next patch.
14
15 2008-03-08  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
16
17         Use `install' with multiple files at once for some primaries.
18         With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once,
19         to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits.
20         This isn't yet done with base targets.  One hope is that there,
21         the typical file name length is lower.  If this turns out to be
22         a problem, it should be revisited.
23
24         * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for
25         installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists
26         files keyed by their target directory.
27         * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to
28         $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets.
29         (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases.
30         Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same
31         directory to `install'.  In the nobase case, make use of
32         $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before
33         populating it.  Take care of files in source and build trees,
34         and avoid creating directories where no files are to be
35         installed.
36         * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise.
37         (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
38         * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise.
39         (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise.  Also take care to keep note of
40         a list for byte compilation after installation.
41         * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
42         (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists
43         to install multiple files at once.
44         * NEWS: Update.
45         Suggested by Akim Demaille.
46

53         failure early and provide a sensible error message.
54
55         Drop usage of obsolete macros AC_EXEEXT and AC_OBJEXT.
56         * tests/ansi4.test: Drop AC_OBJEXT and AC_EXEEXT.
57         * tests/ansi6.test: Likewise.
58         * tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.

82         XFAILed tests, add literal bracket expression for matching

1090         lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
1091         * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
1092         as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
1093         mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
1094         * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
1095         Adjust.
1096
1097         * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
1098         * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
1099         -I m4.  Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
1100         if the default acdir does not exist.
1101
1102         * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:

1117         (DESTDIR): Fix example.
1118
1119 2006-08-19  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1120
1121         * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.

1136
1137 2006-08-14  Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
1138
1139         * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
1140         (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
1141         (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
1142         * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
1143         AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
1144         * m4/upc.m4: New file.
1145         * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
1146         * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
1147         * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.

1154
1155 2006-08-04  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1156
1157         * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
1158
1159         * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp.  Show an example of script
1160         built from configure.ac.  Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
1161         other built scripts.
1162
1163         * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
1164         AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined.  This is for
1165         newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
1166         * tests/init.test: New file.
1167         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

1173         * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
1174         `make distdir' instead.
1175
1176 2006-08-04  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1177
1178         * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
1179         and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
1180         conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
1181         handled.
1182         * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
1183         AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
1184         definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
1185         Report from Bas Wijnen.
1186         * tests/amopt.test: New test.
1187         * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1188
1189         * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
1190         new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null.  So
1191         create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
1192         file, and erase it afterward.  Fall back to using /dev/null only
1193         if we cannot create this file.
1194         Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
1195         (unlink_tmp): New function.
1196         * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
1197
1198 2006-08-04  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1199
1200         * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
1201         do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
1202         to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
1203         Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
1204         depdir computation.
1205         * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
1206         Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
1207         main program.
1208         * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
1209
1210 2006-07-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1211
1212         * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
1213         can install only one file at a time.
1214         (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
1215         (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
1216         (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
1217         cause weird behavior with the other changes below.  All later uses
1218         of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
1219         Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
1220         octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
1221         likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
1222         octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
1223         'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
1224         <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
1225         (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
1226         temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
1227         (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
1228         intermediate directories; this is safer.
1229         (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
1230         /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
1231         HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
1232         Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
1233         traditional implementations.
1234
1235 2006-07-09  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
1236
1237         * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
1238
1239 2006-07-06  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1240
1241         * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
1242         for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
1243         <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
1244
1245 2006-06-24  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
1246             Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1247
1248         * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
1249         `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
1250         computed by config.status.
1251         * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
1252         a changed directory.  Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
1253         * THANKS: Update.
1254
1255 2006-06-24  Eric Dorland  <eric@debian.org>
1256             Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1257
1258         * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.

1260         * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
1261
1262 2006-06-07  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <adl@gnu.org>
1263
1264         * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
1265
1266 2006-06-07  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
1267
1268         * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
1269
1270 2006-06-06  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
1271             Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1272
1273         * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
1274         distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
1275         and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
1276         Fix some comment typos.
1277
1278 2006-06-06  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1279
1280         * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
1281         7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
1282         with `-MDupdate'.  Refine test to catch this.
1283
1284         * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
1285         procedure.
1286
1287         * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
1288         requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
1289         this.  Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
1290         is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
1291         * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
1292         subsequent checks.
1293         * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
1294
1295         * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
1296         MinGW perl.
1297         * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
1298         * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
1299
1300         * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
1301         plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
1302         for grep.  Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
1303         * THANKS: Update.
1304
1305 2006-05-26  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>  (tiny change)
1306
1307         * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
1308
1309 2006-05-25  Noah Misch  <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
1310
1311         * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
1312         ENOLCK.  Only mention `make -j' when applicable.  Only raise
1313         fatal errors when `make -j' is involved.  Improve error message.
1314
1315 2006-05-17  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1316
1317         * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
1318         `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
1319         directory component.
1320         * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
1321         this file.
1322         * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
1323         * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
1324         * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
1325
1326 2006-05-16  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1327
1328         * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
1329         New upstream versions.
1330
1331 2006-05-15  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1332
1333         * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
1334         repository, they use SVN now.
1335
1336 2006-05-13  Werner Lemberg  <wl@gnu.org>
1337
1338         * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
1339         savannah.nongnu.org.
1340
1341 2006-05-13  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1342
1343         * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
1344         lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
1345         lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
1346
1347 2006-05-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1348
1349         * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
1350         Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
1351         as per GNU coding standards.  Close a race condition reported by Ralf
1352         Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal.  There is still a race condition
1353         on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
1354         Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
1355         Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
1356
1357 2006-05-11  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1358
1359         * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
1360         GNUmake.
1361         * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
1362         follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
1363
1364         * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.  Fix test that
1365         ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
1366         `configure'.
1367         * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
1368         * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise.  Do not override by setting
1369         $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
1370         * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
1371         * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise.  Use `set -e'.
1372
1373         * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
1374         turned off later.
1375         * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
1376
1377         * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
1378         the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
1379         it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it.  Fixes
1380         java.test failure.
1381
1382         * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
1383         files in the source tree.  Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
1384         make.
1385
1386         * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
1387         (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
1388         (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
1389
1390 2006-05-10  Ralf Wildenhues  <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1391
1392         * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
1393         /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
1394
1395         * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
1396         Autoconf.
1397
1398         * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
1399         * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
1400         in perl < 5.8.2.
1401
1402         * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:

1921         only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
