11 manual: minor cleanups.
12 * doc/automake.texi (Yacc and Lex): Adjust spacing in example.
13 (Mixing Fortran 77 With C and C++): Drop unneeded @page breaks.
15 Sane (un)install for empty directory variables.
16 This patch fixes all install and uninstall rules to behave
17 sanely when $(wheredir) is the empty string, but $(where_HOW) is
18 nonempty, for all kinds of values of `where' and `HOW'.
19 * lib/am/data.am (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%, uninstall-%DIR%%PRIMARY%):
20 Do not touch the install tree if the corresponding directory variable
21 $(%NDIR%dir) is empty.
22 * lib/am/java.am (install-%DIR%JAVA, uninstall-%DIR%JAVA): Likewise.
23 * lib/am/libs.am (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES, uninstall-%DIR%LIBRARIES):

42 tests/instdir-texi.test: New tests.
43 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
45 Suggestion by Akim Demaille.
47 Ensure that empty directory variables work with empty content variables.
48 This test ensures that, if both $(wheredir) and $(where_HOW) are
49 the empty string, then the `install' and `uninstall' rules behave
50 sanely, for several directory variables `wheredir' and several

64 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
67 DISTFILES containing a directory and files in that directory.
68 When the source tree contains non-writable files or directories
69 (as happens during distcheck), and directories or entries
70 thereof are listed multiple times in variables to be
71 distributed, then the corresponding directories below $(distdir)
72 need to be made writable recursively. Since file modes should
73 not change, they need to be copied recursively using `cp -f'.
74 * lib/am/distdir.am: Handle this situation.
75 * tests/distdir.test: Extend test to those cases.
77 Report by Peter Breitenlohner.
79 2009-03-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
81 Fix a documentation typo.
82 * doc/automake.texi (Headers): Clarify the note telling when it's
83 better not to use noinst_HEADERS.
85 2009-03-22 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
87 Define AM_RECURSIVE_TARGETS, for gnulib's GNUmakefile.
88 This new macro lists all public targets which invoke `make'
89 recursively, or depend on targets which do so. It allows to
90 prevent parallelism selectively, when multiple targets are
91 passed on the `make' command line.
92 * lib/am/distdir.am [%?SUBDIRS%] (AM_RECURSIVE_TARGETS): New
94 * lib/am/subdirs.am (AM_RECURSIVE_TARGETS): Likewise.

102 2009-03-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
104 Ignore warnings from autom4te about Libtool macros.
105 * tests/ltinstloc.test: When testing for presence of warnings,
106 filter out any that are not interesting for this test, e.g.,
107 warnings about installed files or about bogusly named cache
108 variables in libtool.m4, emitted by recent Autoconf when older

113 Relax depcomp test for MSVC to not require minuso.
114 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): When checking the msvisualcpp
115 and msvcmsys depmodes, do not require `-c -o' to work just yet.
116 It is not needed by the depcomp script for these depmodes, and
117 works around the ordering issue between the tests.

128 `tags-recursive' and `ctags-recursive' if appropriate.
129 (handle_all): Likewise for `all'.
130 (do_check_merge_target): Likewise for `check-am' and `check'.
131 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (.MAKE): Depend on %ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr.

134 * tests/maken3.test, tests/maken4.test: New tests.
135 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
137 Improve `make -n dist' and `make -n distcheck' for GNU make.
138 Ensure that `make -n dist' and `make -n distcheck' do not change
139 files, due to GNU make executing rules containing `$(MAKE)'.
140 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Separate the creation of
141 `$(distdir)/$$subdir' for `$(DIST_SUBDIRS)' and the recursion
142 into the `$(DIST_SUBDIRS)' in two separate rule commands.
143 (distcheck): Exit recursive rule early when run with `make -n',
144 as detected by a witness file.
145 * tests/maken.test, tests/maken2.test: New tests.
146 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
149 2009-03-07 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
151 Solaris make testsuite fixes.
152 * tests/check10.test: When a rule fails, Solaris make will
153 output the complete command that failed; in this case the test
154 suite driver. Adjust the test to not bogusly match lines from
155 the driver, rather than its output.
156 * tests/distcleancheck.test: Avoid triggering VPATH rewriting,
157 not desirable in this test.
158 * tests/specflg10.test: Use BUILT_SOURCES to specify an
159 intermediate target, so Solaris make knows what to do.
161 testsuite: SKIP compile tests if configure found no compiler.
162 * tests/depend6.test: configure will exit 77 if AC_PROG_CC found
163 no working compiler. Allow the test to be SKIPped in that case.
164 * tests/postproc.test: Likewise.
165 * tests/pr243.test: Likewise.
166 * tests/pr266.test: Likewise.
168 Fix maintainer-check fallout.

195 replacing occurrences with `@command{automake}' when the command
196 is meant, and `Automake' when speaking about the software

224 * lib/gnupload: New options --delete, --symlink, --rmsymlink,
225 --symlink-regex, --dry-run; support `--' to separate options and
226 commands from files. New target download.gnu.org.ua. Expand

234 Add depmode=msvcmsys for Microsoft Visual C++ on MSYS.
235 * lib/depcomp [msvisualcpp]: Fork fewer processes. Filter out
236 libtool in the preprocessor invocation (as is done in
237 depmode=cpp). Silence compiler stderr.
238 [msvcmsys]: New depmode as a derivative of depmode=msvisualcpp.
239 msvcmsys transforms any backslashes into forward slashes to
240 make the grep in depend.m4 match, instead of the "cygpath -u"
241 that is used in msvisualcpp.

316 Revamp semantics for `missing help2man' and manpage distribution.
317 Previously, `missing help2man' would create a missing man page
318 containing an error message, and exit 1. This does not play
319 well with `make': the next run will see this particular man page
320 as being up to date, and will only error out on the next
321 generated man page, if any; repeat until all pages are done.
322 This patch changes `missing' to exit successfully in this case,
323 but `make dist' will ensure that no such man pages are packaged.
324 * lib/missing: Exit successfully even if we create a replacement
325 page due to missing help2man.
326 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Define %HAVE-MANS% to be true
327 if this makefile deals with man pages.

329 check that no man page in $(MANS) contains the replacement text

616 functions, to queue and dequeue requirements for aux dir files.
617 (require_conf_file): Enqueue if needed.
618 (get_number_of_threads): Can do threads with --add-missing now.

623 * tests/parallel-am2.test: Also cope with --add-missing.
624 * tests/parallel-am3.test: New test, test absence of races with
625 concurrent same-file installs stemming from --add-missing.
626 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
628 Implement serialization for Locations.
629 * lib/Automake/Location.pm (serialize, deserialize): New
630 functions. They allows to serialize a Location in an array, and
631 to restore a Location from a thread queue. The API is
632 unsymmetric (array vs. queue) because enqueuing data needs to
635 Parallel automake: ordered output messages.
636 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (%_default_options): New options
637 `ordered' default enabled, `queue', default zero (no queue),
638 `queue_key' default undefined.
639 (_merge_options): Ensure `ordered' channels cannot have fatal
640 messages or backtrace output.
641 (_enqueue, _dequeue): New functions, to push messages onto a
642 Thread::Queue, and output messages from such a queue, suitably
643 weeded for duplicates in the same manner as _print_message.
644 (_print_message): If the channel is ordered and has an
645 associated queue, then enqueue messages instead of printing
647 (setup_channel_queue, pop_channel_queue): New functions,
648 to set a Thread::Queue for channels, and to flush a queue.
649 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Unset channel option `ordered'
650 for fatal, automake, and verb channels.
651 * automake.in (QUEUE_MESSAGE): New global constant, used as
653 (handle_makefiles_threaded): Create message queues for each
654 input file; workers queue messages, and the master outputs them
655 ordered, using the new Channels.pm functions.
656 * tests/parallel-am.test: Also check for ordered output (in the
657 absence of --add-missing races).
658 * tests/parallel-am2.test: New test; check for ordered output of
659 warning and (regular) error messages.
660 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
662 Parallel automake execution: AUTOMAKE_JOBS.
663 * lib/Automake/Config.in (perl_threads): New global.
664 * automake.in: Use it. If the perl supports interpreter-based
665 threading, then use `threads' and `Thread::Queue'.
666 (handle_makefile, handle_makefiles_serial): New functions,
667 factored out from main.
668 (get_number_of_threads): New function, compute number of threads
669 to use, based on environment variable `AUTOMAKE_JOBS' and number
670 of independent makefiles.
671 (handle_makefiles_threaded): New function. Spawn threads, use
672 thread queue to distribute handling the different makefiles.
673 Collect $exit_code values from threads.
674 (main): Use new functions.
675 * aclocal.in: No threads here.
676 * configure.ac: Substitute PERL_THREADS; enabled with perl >=
677 5.7.2 and when ithreads are available.

685 needed for worker threads.
686 * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Also
687 include the build tree path, so Config.pm is found.

696 Minor file checking optimization: set_dir_cache_file.
697 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm (set_dir_cache_file): New function.
698 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Instead of resetting the
699 cache when a file has been installed, simply correct the cache
700 using set_dir_cache_file.
702 No uniquifying for fatal, prog_error, and verbose messages.
703 There is no point in dropping critical messages, even if they
704 are duplicates (unlikely to happen unless they have been sent
705 as non-critical messages before), and verbose messages should
706 enable to show progress, even using duplicate statements.
707 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (fatal, automake, verb): Set
708 `uniq_part' to `UP_NONE' when registering these channels.
710 Fix 'config.status --file=... depfiles' with new Autoconf.

722 * lib/py-compile: Do not import string; use sys.stdout.write
723 instead of print, files.split instead of string.split.
724 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Also look for python3 and
725 phython3.0; do not look for python1.5. Use sys.stdout.write.

738 ($output_rules, $output_trailer): Fix comment, and sort
739 declarations in the order they will appear in the output.
740 ($all_target): Unused variable, remove.
741 (Variables not reset by &initialize_per_input.): New section,
742 clarify that %am_file_cache is not reset.
743 (initialize_per_input): Reset $am_file_name, $am_relative_dir,
744 $in_file_name, $relative_dir, and $topsrcdir to `undef' rather
745 than the empty string; $topsrcdir was not reset at all. Sort
746 remaining variables in the same order as in the section
747 `Variables reset by &initialize_per_input'.
749 Let stderr output end up on fd 2 in testsuite.

757 Fix DisjConditions module to be thread-safe for perl >= 5.7.2.
758 Self-hashes of blessed references are not correctly transported
759 through thread creation. This patch fixes that by recreating
760 the hashes upon thread creation with a CLONE special subroutine,
761 which is automatically invoked by new enough Perl versions.
762 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (CLONE): New special
763 subroutine to fix self hashes upon thread creation.
764 * lib/Automake/tests/Condition-t.pl: New, sister test to

903 This patch changes back the order of installation of nobase
904 LTLIBRARIES to that in which files are listed in the variables.
905 It does not fix the issue of strict dependency ordering, as
906 implied by *_LIBADD, but as before allows to steer the order by
907 listing the libraries in nobase_*_LTLIBRARIES appropriately.

909 nobase libraries to be installed in the same directory are
910 passed to libtool in one invocation.

1043 Fix multi-file installation for files in srcdir.
1044 For files that can live in the build tree or the source tree,
1045 we have to expect that prepending `$(srcdir)/' to each name
1046 will let the install command line exceed length limitations.
1047 Thus use a new macro, $(am__base_list), to install in chunks
1048 of 40 files, similar to what we do for nobase_* files. There,
1049 lower the limit to 40, too.

1052 * lib/am/data.am (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%) [%?BASE%]: Use it.
1053 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
1054 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Likewise.
1056 2008-09-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1058 Use `Exit' instead of `exit' in test suite.
1059 Cater to Bourne shells like Solaris sh that do not pass the
1060 `exit' argument as status to the cleanup trap.
1061 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check that here-documents
1062 use only `END' or `EOF' as delimiter in the test suite.
1063 Check that, outside of here-documents, the tests do not use
1064 `exit' with an argument, but use `Exit' instead.
1065 * tests/defs.in (Exit): New function. Use it throughout,
1066 starting with the introduction of the exit trap.

1277 2008-09-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1279 Avoid Heisenbug with verbose testing on HP-UX.
1280 * tests/output-order.test: Remove spurious redirection line
1281 from output for comparison.
1283 For all possibly-relative subdirs, use $(am__cd).
1284 Up to now, $(am__cd) was only used within backquotes, to avoid
1285 extraneous output. This patch also uses it for every `cd' to a
1286 relative subdir, to prevent CDPATH from entering an unwanted
1288 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fix current check for
1289 $(am__cd) within backquotes a bit. Add new check for `cd' to a
1291 * automake.in (handle_tags, handle_configure): Adjust rules.
1292 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am: Likewise.
1293 * lib/am/configure.am: Likewise.
1294 * lib/am/distdir.am: Likewise.
1295 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Likewise.
1296 * lib/am/subdirs.am: Likewise.
1297 * lib/am/tags.am: Likewise.
1298 * lib/am/texibuild.am: Likewise.
1300 Fix nobase-python.test for BSD make.
1301 * tests/nobase-python.test: Listing a dependency to be found
1302 via VPATH search explicitly, without the path, as a target,
1303 will turn off VPATH search for FreeBSD make. So move the
1304 creation of the files outside of the Makefile.
1306 2008-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1308 Implement AM_MAINTAINER_MODE([DEFAULT-MODE]).
1309 * m4/maintainer.m4 (AM_MAINTAINER_MODE): Allow for an optional
1310 first argument of `enable' or `disable', setting the default.
1311 * doc/automake.texi (Optional, maintainer-mode): Document.
1312 * tests/mmode.test: New test.
1313 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
1315 Suggestion by Vincent Lefevre.
1317 2008-08-31 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1319 Copyright year updates.
1320 * lib/am/header-vars.am: Update copyright years.
1321 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Likewise.
1322 * lib/am/tags.am: Likewise.
1324 2008-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1326 * THANKS: Use Cyrillic name instead of ASCII transcription.
1328 2008-08-22 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1330 Fix rebuilding of removed subdir/Makefile.in files.
1331 * lib/am/configure.am (%MAKEFILE-IN%) [?!TOPDIR_P?]: If
1332 subdir/Makefile.in was removed, am--refresh would not update
1333 it. Fix up for it by running the per-directory rebuild rule.
1334 * tests/remake6.test, tests/remake7.test: New tests.
1335 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
1336 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
1337 Report and initial patch by Ilya N. Golubev.
1339 2008-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1341 * tests/notrans.test: Use multiple man files of each type.
1343 Fix maintainer-check failures.
1344 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Drop TAB.
1345 * tests/missing6.test: Use 'rm -f'.
1347 2008-08-19 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org> (tiny patch)
1349 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering, Per-Object Flags):
1352 2008-08-02 Karl Berry <karl@freefriends.org>
1354 * lib/gnupload: Provide also a simple example.
1356 2008-06-25 Thien-Thi Nguyen <ttn@gnuvola.org>
1359 * doc/automake.texi (Public Macros): Close open paren.
1361 2008-06-18 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1363 Introduce macro $(am__mv) to facilitate 'libtool --dry-run'.
1364 * lib/am/depend.am (am__mv): New macro, set to 'mv -f'.
1365 * lib/am/depend2.am: Use throughout to move the temporary
1366 depfile *.Tpo to its final destination *.Po.
1368 2008-06-18 Rafael Espindola <espindola@google.com>
1370 * lib/config-ml.in: don't handle --enable-shared and --enable-static.
1372 2008-06-18 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1374 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__install_max): New variable.
1375 (am__nobase_list): Use it.
1377 Fix conditional rules competing with config.status rules.
1378 * automake.in (handle_configure): Teach targets about the
1379 conditional config.status rule.
1380 * tests/cond39.test: Adjust test to expose this.
1382 For AC_CONFIG_LINKS(X,X), do not clean X in a non-VPATH build.
1383 * automake.in (rewrite_inputs_into_dependencies): Do distribute
1384 inputs where input and output name are equal. This relies on
1385 the assumption that it only happens with AC_CONFIG_LINKS.

1463 * doc/automake.texi (@ovar): New macro, from autoconf.texi.
1465 Suggestion by Eric Blake.

1482 * lib/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm (handle_exec_errors): New argument
1483 $hint, show if the executing program does not exist.

1501 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1503 Use `install' with multiple files at once for some primaries.
1504 With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once,
1505 to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits.
1506 This isn't yet done with base targets. One hope is that there,
1507 the typical file name length is lower. If this turns out to be
1508 a problem, it should be revisited.
1510 * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for
1511 installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists
1512 files keyed by their target directory.
1513 * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to
1514 $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets.
1515 (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases.
1516 Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same
1517 directory to `install'. In the nobase case, make use of
1518 $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before
1519 populating it. Take care of files in source and build trees,
1520 and avoid creating directories where no files are to be
1522 * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise.
1523 (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise.
1524 * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise.
1525 (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise. Also take care to keep note of
1526 a list for byte compilation after installation.
1527 * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am)
1528 (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists
1529 to install multiple files at once.
1531 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1533 2008-03-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>

1536 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump AC_PREREQ to 2.61-341,
1538 * configure.ac: Also require Autoconf 2.61-341, to catch
1539 failure early and provide a sensible error message.

1563 support wildcards" node's English and sense.
1565 2008-02-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1567 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): In the case patterns for
1568 XFAILed tests, add literal bracket expression for matching
1569 whitespace, as NetBSD 4.99.54 ksh does not understand a
1570 bracket expression resulting from variable expansion.
1571 * README: Explain how to run the Automake test suite, including
1572 setting MAKE to test gmake.
1573 Report by Patrick Welche.

1590 2008-02-05 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
1592 * doc/automake.texi (CVS): configure.ac will appear newer, not
1593 older, than configure. Use `lexical' instead of `alphabetical'.

1663 Do not fail if `autoupdate' is not present.
1664 * tests/obsolete.test: Check for presence of autoupdate. Apparently,
1665 FreeBSD may install the other Autoconf programs without a version
1666 suffix but not autoupdate.
1668 Fix Heisenbug trying to unset a sometimes-not-set variable.

1683 texinfo.tex is searched in the same directory as the Makefile.am
1684 that needs it. Clarify that TEXINFO_TEX has precedence over
1685 AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, and that it requires the user to install and
1687 * tests/txinfo22.test: Ensure TEXINFO_TEX is not distributed.

1763 Fix the distdir target to cope with spaces in absolute file names.
1764 * lib/am/distdir.am: Quote all instances of $(distdir) and

2424 `-c' flag, so they appear at the same position as in %FASTDEP%
2425 mode in depend2.am. Fixes build failure for FreeBSD's c89,
2426 which ignores unknown options only after the first non-option.
2427 Bug report against M4 by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
2429 2006-10-14 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
2430 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2432 * automake.in ($seen_gettext_intl): New variable.
2433 (handle_gettext): Consider it.
2434 (scan_autoconf_traces): Add AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR to the list.
2435 Set $seen_gettext_intl when it is seen.
2436 * doc/automake.texi (gettext, Optional): Update.
2437 * tests/gettext3.test: New test.
2438 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2440 2006-10-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2442 * lib/install-sh (posix_mkdir): Reject FreeBSD 6.1 mkdir -p -m,
2443 which incorrectly sets the mode of an existing destination
2444 directory. In some cases the unpatched install-sh could do the
2445 equivalent of "chmod 777 /" or "chmod 0 /" on a buggy FreeBSD
2446 system. We hope this is rare in practice, but it's clearly worth
2447 fixing. Problem reported by Alex Unleashed in
2448 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2006-10/msg00012.html>.
2449 Also, don't bother to check for -m bugs unless we're using -m;
2450 suggested by Stepan Kasal.
2452 2006-10-14 Geoffrey Keating <geoffk@apple.com> (tiny change)
2454 * m4/multi.m4: Non-default multilibs may be cross compilation.
2456 2006-10-14 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2458 * automake.in: Fix some typos in comments.
2459 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise.
2461 2006-10-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2463 * automake.in (handle_compile): Use subst, for maintainer-check.
2465 2006-10-09 Andreas Köhler <andi5.py@gmx.net> (tiny change)
2467 For PR automake/505:
2468 * lib/am/configure.am (am__CONFIG_DISTCLEAN_FILES):
2469 Fix typo: `config.status.lineno', not `configure.status.lineno'.
2471 2006-09-05 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2473 * NEWS: Mention that `install-sh' needs executable permissions.
2474 * tests/nobase.test: Adjust.
2475 Report by Patrick Welche.
2477 2006-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2479 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Fix matching of XFAIL_TESTS
2480 against currently running test for the first and last element
2481 of $(TESTS): add spacing so Solaris make does VPATH expansion
2482 on these words, too.
2483 * tests/check6.test: Update.
2485 2006-08-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2487 For PR automake/501:
2488 * lib/am/depend2.am (?GENERIC?%EXT%.o, ?!GENERIC?%OBJ%):
2489 Abbreviate output a bit by not bothering to quote the .Po file
2490 name (the quoting doesn't suffice in general anyway), and by not
2491 bothering to remove junk .Tpo files (as they'll be removed later).
2492 This also lets 'make' run faster by avoiding a subshell.
2494 2006-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2496 * automake.in: Fortran 77 and Fortran should require variables
2497 F77 resp. FC to be defined, and suggest the respective Autoconf
2499 * tests/fort1.test: New test.
2500 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2502 * tests/ext.test: Add extensions f95, F90, F95.
2504 2006-08-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2506 For PR automake/500:
2507 * automake.in (handle_compile) <$default_includes>: Do not output
2508 the same -I twice. Use @am__isrc@ instead of ` -I$(srcdir)'.
2509 * m4/init.m4: Define am__isrc as ` -I$(srcdir)' only in
2510 non-VPATH builds since we always have `-I.'.
2511 * tests/subpkg.test: Make sure config headers are found in VPATH
2512 and non-VPATH builds.
2514 2006-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2516 * doc/automake.texi, lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Fix some typos.
2517 * NEWS: Likewise. Clarify that only one LIBOBJDIR is supported.
2519 2006-08-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2521 * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm (usage): Mention that -Wportability
2522 is enabled by default with gnu and gnits strictness.
2523 Report from Bruno Haible.
2525 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

2532 * Makefile.am, THANKS: Fix typos.
2534 2006-08-20 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2536 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9c.
2538 * NEWS, configure.ac: Bump version to 1.9b.
2540 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p in automake.in
2542 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Use MKDIR_P, not mkdir_p.
2544 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Typo in previous patch.
2546 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Fine-tune the "Unescaped @"
2547 check so it doesn't complain about the '@ 's in node "Standard
2548 Directory Variables".
2550 * INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/texinfo.tex, lib/config.sub: New
2553 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Prefix mkdir_p with
2554 $(top_builddir)/ if it is a relative directory.
2556 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2558 * lib/am/lex.am, lib/am/yacc.am: Drop the inline rules, always use
2559 ylwrap. Suggested by Akim Demaille long ago, to ease maintenance.
2560 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define MORE-THAN-ONE.
2561 (yacc_lex_finish_helper, lang_yacc_finish, lang_lex_finish): Always
2563 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, Yacc and Lex): Update the
2564 documentation of ylwrap.
2565 * tests/lex.test, tests/lex4.test, tests/mmodely.test,
2566 tests/yacc.test, tests/yacc2.test, tests/yacc3.test,
2567 tests/yaccpp.test: Adjust.
2569 * doc/automake.texi (Releases): Update statistics until 1.9.6.
2571 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for mkdir_p.
2572 * automake.texi (Obsolete macros): Document AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.

2575 lib/am/mans.am, lib/am/progs.am, lib/am/python.am,
2576 lib/am/scripts.am, lib/am/texinfos.am: Use MKDIR_P instead of mkdir_p.
2577 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Define mkdir_p using $MKDIR_P, not
2578 as '$(MKDIR_P)', otherwise it will break `Makefile.in's that use
2579 mkdir_p without defining MKDIR_P.
2580 * tests/distdir.test, tests/instman.test, tests/txinfo21.test:
2583 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
2584 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
2585 -I m4. Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
2586 if the default acdir does not exist.
2588 * NEWS, configure.ac, m4/init.m4, m4/lispdir.m4, m4/mkdirp.m4:
2589 Require Autoconf 2.60 instead of some intermediate development
2592 * doc/automake.texi (Standard Directory Variables): Fix multitable
2594 (Autotools Introduction): Fix @uref usage.
2596 2006-08-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2598 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos in the introduction,
2599 adjust some spacing; spell `GNU Build System' consistently.
2600 (menu): Unify node naming.
2601 (Standard Directory Variables): Clarify that this list is not
2603 (DESTDIR): Fix example.
2605 2006-08-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2607 * doc/automake.texi (Autotools Introduction) New chapter.
2608 Thanks to Ben Pfaff and Ralf Wildenhues for comments.
2609 (Auxiliary Programs, Install, Dist, Third-Party Makefiles)
2610 (distcleancheck): More cross references.

2619 2006-08-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2621 * doc/automake.texi: Fix some typos.
2623 2006-08-14 Jonathan Higa <jthiga@gmail.com>
2625 * automake.in: Register "Unified Parallel C" as language.
2626 (lang_upc_rewrite): New function.
2627 (resolve_linker): Consider UPCLINK.
2628 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): Suggest
2629 AM_PROG_UPC for UPC and UPCFLAGS.
2630 * m4/upc.m4: New file.
2631 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): Add UPC case.
2632 * m4/Makefile.am (dist_m4data_DATA): Add upc.m4.
2633 * doc/automake.texi (Unified Parallel C Support): New node.
2634 (Public macros): Mention AM_PROG_UPC.
2635 (Program and Library Variables, Flag Variables Ordering):
2637 * tests/upc.test, tests/upc2.test, tests/upc3.test: New file.
2638 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
2639 * tests/ext.test: Also test upc files.
2641 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2643 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Fix some errors in previous patch.
2645 * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Revamp. Show an example of script
2646 built from configure.ac. Discuss CLEANFILES and EXTRA_DIST for
2647 other built scripts.
2649 * m4/init.m4: Suggest fixing the call to AC_INIT when
2650 AC_PACKAGE_NAME or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION is undefined. This is for
2651 newcomers who call AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE without arguments.
2652 * tests/init.test: New file.
2653 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2655 2006-08-04 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2657 * automake.in (dist_dirs, fill_dist_dirs): Remove.
2658 * lib/am/distdir.am (DISTDIRS): Remove.
2659 * tests/distdir.test, tests/pr2.test: Do not grep, use
2660 `make distdir' instead.
2662 2006-08-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2664 * doc/automake.texi (Conditionals): Split in two sections, "Usage"
2665 and "Portability", and add a third one, "Limits" to explain how
2666 conditional definitions inside multi-lines definitions can be
2668 * automake.in (handle_options): Do not assume that
2669 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS is defined in TRUE, but diagnose conditional
2670 definitions of AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
2671 Report from Bas Wijnen.
2672 * tests/amopt.test: New test.
2673 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
2675 * aclocal.in (install_file): Cannot use /dev/null while diffing
2676 new files, because Tru64's diff do not handle /dev/null. So
2677 create an empty destination file before running diff on a new
2678 file, and erase it afterward. Fall back to using /dev/null only
2679 if we cannot create this file.
2680 Report and initial patch from Ralf Wildenhues.
2681 (unlink_tmp): New function.
2682 * test/acloca18.test: Make sure the empty file has been erased.
2684 2006-08-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2686 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): With subdir-objects,
2687 do not prefix `$(top_builddir)/' aka `./' to nonempty LIBOBJDIR,
2688 to help BSD Make find the files also in a VPATH build.
2689 Also return the same path, possibly prefixed, for correct
2691 * tests/pr401.test: Update to expose wrong depdir computation.
2692 Rewrite to not use the same file name for library object and
2694 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: Likewise.
2696 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2698 * lib/install-sh: Don't incorrectly claim that this implementation
2699 can install only one file at a time.
2700 (doit_exec): New var, for using 'exec' if possible, to save a process.
2701 (test_mode, intermediate_mode): Remove.
2702 (mode): Check for IFS or globbing characters in mode, since they might
2703 cause weird behavior with the other changes below. All later uses
2704 of '"$mode"' changed to '$mode', since the ""s no longer matter.
2705 Use octal modes if the invoker specifies an octal mode, and use
2706 octal umask values if 'umask' outputs octal values; this is more
2707 likely to work with older operating systems since Automake uses
2708 octal modes, and also works around a bug with HP-UX 11.23
2709 'mkdir -p -m u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx,u+wx' reported by Ralf Wildenhues in
2710 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2006-06/msg00024.html>.
2711 (cp_umask, mkdir_umask): New variables, to avoid
2712 temporarily creating files or directories with too-permissive modes.
2713 (mkdir_mode): Use the FreeBSD 'install' method for computing modes of
2714 intermediate directories; this is safer.
2715 (posix_mkdir): Also test mkdir -p -m ... by making a directory in
2716 /tmp and checking the resulting mode with 'ls', to catch a bug in
2717 HP-UX 11.23 and IRIX 6.5 mkdir reported by Ralf in the same message.
2718 Use ':' for true, not 'true'; this is a bit faster on
2719 traditional implementations.
2721 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2723 * lib/depcomp: "in in" -> "in" in comment.
2725 2006-07-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2727 * tests/defs.in (AUTOMAKE_run): Redirect stdout before stderr,
2728 for consistency with the recommendation prompted by this report:
2729 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00225.html>.
2731 2006-06-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2732 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2734 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Set `mkdir_p' to
2735 `'$(MKDIR_P)'', so that it retains the per-directory value
2736 computed by config.status.
2737 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): do not use `$(mkdir_p)' from
2738 a changed directory. Bugs reported by Ralf Menzel.
2741 2006-06-24 Eric Dorland <eric@debian.org>
2742 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2744 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Fix matching file extension.
2745 * tests/txinfo31.test: New test.
2746 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2748 2006-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2750 * automake.in (handle_LIBOBJS): Don't rely on the caller defining $1.
2752 2006-06-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2754 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Rewrite using AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
2756 2006-06-06 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
2757 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2759 * lib/am/distdir.am: Do not call $(mkdir_p) for each
2760 distributed file, collect them and create them in one run,
2761 and strip $(srcdir) and $(top_srcdir) all at once.
2762 Fix some comment typos.
2764 2006-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2766 * m4/depend.m4 (_AM_DEPENDENCIES): The IRIX MIPSpro compiler
2767 7.4.4m may omit the first included header dependency information
2768 with `-MDupdate'. Refine test to catch this.
2770 * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use `-I m4' to match `./bootstrap'
2773 * tests/gettext.test: AM_PROG_GETTEXT of gettext >= 0.14.3
2774 requires `config.rpath' to be present, and automake now enforces
2775 this. Test this, but only if the gettext installation works and
2776 is recent enough to provide this diagnosis.
2777 * tests/gettext.test: Provide a dummy `config.rpath' for all
2779 * tests/gettext2.test, tests/subcond.test: Likewise.
2781 * tests/pr401.test: Replace "perl -i" with sed and mv, for
2783 * tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test, tests/python11.test,
2784 * tests/yacc6.test, tests/yacc8.test: Likewise.
2786 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Do not use
2787 plain `grep' on the Makefile, as its line length may exceed that
2788 for grep. Bug report against coreutils by Sam Sirlin.
2791 2006-05-26 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net> (tiny change)
2793 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Add anchor `tar-formats'.
2795 2006-05-25 Noah Misch <noah@cs.caltech.edu>
2797 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Allow EOPNOTSUPP, besides
2798 ENOLCK. Only mention `make -j' when applicable. Only raise
2799 fatal errors when `make -j' is involved. Improve error message.
2801 2006-05-17 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2803 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm (find_configure_ac): Use
2804 `$configure_in' instead of `configure.in', to preserve
2805 directory component.
2806 * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Add note that Automake owns
2808 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise.
2809 * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise.
2810 * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise.
2812 2006-05-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2814 * INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
2815 New upstream versions.
2817 2006-05-15 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2819 * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs): Fix URL to GCC
2820 repository, they use SVN now.
2822 2006-05-13 Werner Lemberg <wl@gnu.org>
2824 * lib/gnupload: Add support for savannah.gnu.org and
2825 savannah.nongnu.org.
2827 2006-05-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2829 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm,
2830 lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm,
2831 lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Fix some typos.
2833 2006-05-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2835 * lib/install-sh: Sync from Autoconf, as follows:
2836 Don't use 'path' to talk about file names,
2837 as per GNU coding standards. Close a race condition reported by Ralf
2838 Wildenhues and Stepan Kasal. There is still a race condition
2839 on hosts that predate Posix 1003.1-1992, but we can't help this.
2840 Don't mishandle weird characters like space on pre-Posix hosts.
2841 Invoke mkdir at most once per dir arg on pre-Posix hosts.
2843 2006-05-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2845 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Do not require
2847 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Make sure `required=' does not
2848 follow `. ./defs' in the tests.
2850 * tests/ansi10.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC. Fix test that
2851 ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc isn't just used by Automake code in
2853 * tests/ansi6.test, tests/ansi7.test: Likewise.
2854 * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. Do not override by setting
2855 $U and $(ANSI2KNR) at `make' time; that will be fragile.
2856 * tests/libobj8.test: Use AC_PROG_CC_STDC.
2857 * tests/subobj3.test: Likewise. Use `set -e'.
2859 * lib/install-sh: Initialize IFS, so field splitting isn't
2861 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Likewise.
2863 * lib/am/java.am (class%DIR%.stamp): Do not assume `$?' has
2864 the path of the prerequisite added; IRIX 6.5 make does not add
2865 it, Solaris 2.6 make is inconsistent about adding it. Fixes
2868 * tests/distdir.test: Do not use leading `./' in EXTRA_DIST for
2869 files in the source tree. Fixes failures with HP-UX and Tru64
2872 * lib/am/ansi2knr.am (ansi2knr): Rename target as...
2873 (./ansi2knr): ...this, for BSD make.
2874 (%ANSI2KNR-DIR%/ansi2knr): Adjust.
2876 2006-05-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2878 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Cater for OpenBSD
2879 /bin/sh -e issue with failing commands in if clauses.
2881 * tests/defs.in (Be Bourne compatible): Update from current
2884 * configure.ac: Recommend perl-5.8.2.
2885 * tests/automake.test: Do not fail because of buggy Getopt::Long
2888 * tests/longlin2.test: Do not use `grep' on Makefile.am:
2889 it has long lines and is thus not a text file; AIX 5.1 grep
2890 fails to scan non-plain patterns from long lines.
2892 * tests/overrid.test: Change all regexes for warning messages to
2893 match after a colon, so that the prepended file names do not
2894 cause false matches. Tighten overrides regex. Fix typo
2895 `cleam-am-local' -> `clean-am-local'.
2897 * tests/java.test: `configure' uses a trap, so use `(exit 77);
2898 exit 77' to portably set the exit status similar to AS_EXIT.
2899 * tests/fn99.test: propagate nonzero exit status from subshell.

3411 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
3412 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
3413 Report from Ed Hartnett.
3415 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3417 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
3419 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
3420 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
3421 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
3422 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
3423 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
3425 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3427 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
3428 Fix redirections in previous patch.
3430 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3432 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
3433 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
3434 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
3435 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
3436 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
3437 Report from Bob Proulx.
3439 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
3441 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
3443 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
3445 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3447 Fix PR automake/461:
3448 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
3449 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
3450 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
3451 Report from Tom Tromey.

3683 tests/yaccvpath.test: Update FSF postal mail address.
3685 * tests/cxxnoc.test: Adjust grep pattern for CC, because CVS
3686 Autoconf currently defines a CCC variable.
3688 * tests/output11.test, tests/output12.test: Use rm -f.

3693 Support for remote LIBOBJS (and friends) with subdir-objects.
3694 Fixes PR automake/401.
3696 * automake.in (config_libobj_dir): New variable.
3697 (scan_autoconf_traces): Set config_libobj_dir from AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.
3698 (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA, require_libsource_with_macro): New functions.
3699 (handle_LIBOBJS, handle_ALLOCA): Use them. Adjust location of
3700 dependency files, possibly in a subdirectory.
3701 * tests/pr401.test, tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: New tests.
3702 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
3703 * doc/automake.texi (Optional) <AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR>: Document.
3704 (LIBOBJS): Document changes in behaviour of
3705 LIBOBJS, ALLOCA, LTLIBOBJS & LTALLOCA in the presence of
3706 subdir-objects and an invocation of AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.
3708 2005-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3710 * doc/automake.texi (Dist): Correct English.
3712 2005-03-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
3714 * doc/automake.texi: When the phrase "for instance" introduces a
3715 sentence, it should be delimited by a comma.
3717 * doc/automake.texi: Fix a few typos.
3719 2005-03-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
3721 * doc/automake.texi (Uniform): Use xmldir instead of htmldir as
3722 example, since the GCS now define htmldir.
