3 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
4 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
5 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
6 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
7 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
8 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
9 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
10 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
11 Report from Ed Hartnett.
13 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
15 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
17 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
18 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
19 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
20 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
21 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
23 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
25 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
26 Fix redirections in previous patch.
28 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
30 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
31 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
32 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
33 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
34 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
35 Report from Bob Proulx.
37 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
39 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
41 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
43 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
46 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
47 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
48 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
49 Report from Tom Tromey.

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

289 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
291 Support for remote LIBOBJS (and friends) with subdir-objects.
292 Fixes PR automake/401.
294 * automake.in (config_libobj_dir): New variable.
295 (scan_autoconf_traces): Set config_libobj_dir from AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.
296 (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA, require_libsource_with_macro): New functions.
297 (handle_LIBOBJS, handle_ALLOCA): Use them. Adjust location of
298 dependency files, possibly in a subdirectory.
299 * tests/pr401.test, tests/pr401b.test, tests/pr401c.test: New tests.
300 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
301 * doc/automake.texi (Optional) <AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR>: Document.
302 (LIBOBJS): Document changes in behaviour of
303 LIBOBJS, ALLOCA, LTLIBOBJS & LTALLOCA in the presence of
304 subdir-objects and an invocation of AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR.
306 2005-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
308 * doc/automake.texi (Dist): Correct English.
310 2005-03-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
312 * doc/automake.texi: When the phrase "for instance" introduces a
313 sentence, it should be delimited by a comma.
315 * doc/automake.texi: Fix a few typos.
317 2005-03-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
319 * doc/automake.texi (Uniform): Use xmldir instead of htmldir as
320 example, since the GCS now define htmldir.
321 (Auxiliary Programs): Mention config-ml.in and symlink-tree.
322 Give a URL for texinfo.tex.
323 (Public macros): Sort alphabetically, and move obsolete macros...
324 (Obsolete macros): ... here.
325 Prompted by Karl Berry.
327 2005-03-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
329 * doc/automake.texi (Multiple Outputs): Fix mistakes reported by
332 * lib/am/lisp.am ($(am__ELCFILES)): Prevent races if the recover
333 rule is run with `make -j'.

335 * tests/lisp6.test: Augment it.
336 * tests/lisp8.test: New file.
337 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add lisp8.test.
338 Suggested by Bruno Haible.

876 * tests/automake.test: New file.
877 * tests/postprog.test: Use `--' for fun.
878 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add automake.test.
879 Report from Eric Blake.
881 * lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
882 /dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
883 input without supporting --help and --version.
884 * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
885 * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.
886 Report and fix from James Youngman.
888 2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
890 * aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
891 (%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
892 function that uses it.
894 * aclocal.in (version): Remove initial blank line and reproduce
895 the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
897 * aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.
898 (scan_m4_dirs): New function, extracted from ...
899 (scan_m4_files): ... here. Call scan_m4_files three times, for each

907 * tests/aclocal.test: Use it to fix the test. Report from
910 2004-11-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
912 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
913 AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
914 is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
915 passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
916 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
917 so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
918 * tests/python11.test: New file.
919 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
921 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
922 should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
924 2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
926 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
927 * tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
929 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default
930 $(datadir)/aclocal. Report from Akim.

940 ("MAIN"): Adjust to scan m4 files in @user_includes,
941 @automake_includes, and @system_includes.
943 2004-11-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
945 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correct comment. From Akim.
947 2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
949 * aclocal.in: Use Automake::ChannelDefs, and adjust all output
950 to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
951 (version): New function.
952 (parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
953 honor -W and --warning.
955 (trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
956 for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
957 unexpected newlines in the output.
958 * doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
959 * tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl
960 warnings about uninitialized variables.
962 2004-11-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
964 * tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
965 VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.
967 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Make sure $map_traced_defs{$m} exists
968 before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
969 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
971 2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
973 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
974 before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
975 concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
976 Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
978 * aclocal.in: Use strict and -w. Declare local variables with `my',
979 and get rid of `local'.
980 (scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
983 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
985 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
986 from Ralf Wildenhues.
988 2004-10-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

994 2004-10-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
996 * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
998 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1000 * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
1002 2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1004 * tests/distcom3.test: Typo.

1008 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
1009 to force the linker selection.
1011 * lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
1012 slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'. This
1013 caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
1014 * tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
1015 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1017 2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1019 * automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
1020 by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the
1021 target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
1022 prepend $U to the given extension.
1023 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
1024 the extension to use. This way Automake won't mistake a program
1025 named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
1026 * tests/primary3.test: New file.
1027 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
1029 2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1032 (Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
1033 install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
1035 * configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
1036 * tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
1037 so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
1038 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
1039 to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
1040 AUTOCONF. This fixes two spurious failures reported by
1043 * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
1044 * tests/compile.test: Check for this.
1046 2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1048 * doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
1050 2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)

1064 * automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
1065 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
1066 preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
1068 2004-10-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
1070 * automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into
1071 separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
1072 of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
1073 (handle_languages): Fix typo.
1074 (lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
1076 2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1078 * tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
1080 2004-09-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1082 * automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
1083 Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
1084 --mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
1085 (define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
1087 * tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated. That
1088 was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
1089 compiler to get dependencies from.
1090 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1092 2004-09-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1094 * configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
1095 * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
1096 lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
1097 and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
1098 * aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
1099 (scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
1101 * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
1102 two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
1103 like `echo $val | ...`.
1104 * tests/README: Suggest this.
1105 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
1107 2004-09-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1169 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (_print_message): Handle uniq_part with
1171 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Set uniq_part so that the
1172 AM_PROG_CC_C_O diagnostic is output only once for subdir objects
1173 and only once for objects with per-target flags.
1175 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Print files and locations
1176 for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
1177 (handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can

1214 2004-09-07 Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>
1216 * missing: Handle all command line options together. Add a
1217 separate case statement to detect failed runs, and fail
1218 silently there if --help or --version is passed to the program.
1220 2004-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1222 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.

1233 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (new): Precompute 'string' and 'conds'
1234 in place instead of as a side-effect of calling ->string and ->conds.

1237 (string, conds): Simplify, now that the result is precomputed.
1239 * automake.in (%am_file_cache): New hash.
1240 (make_paragraphs): Cache .am files with comments stripped to save

1259 DERIVED-EXT, and DIST_SOURCE, because the new transform() will
1260 abort on unknown tokens.
1261 (transform): Rewrite with different semantics.
1262 (make_paragraphs): Make a single pass over the paragraph to
1263 transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as

1290 are used with C sources.
1291 * m4/minuso.m4: Require `compile' using AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1292 * m4/missing.m4: Require `missing' similarly.
1293 * tests/acsubst2.test, tests/distcom2.test, tests/distcom6.test,
1294 tests/specflg.test, tests/specflg2.test, tests/specflg3.test,
1295 tests/specflg6.test, tests/specflg7.test, tests/specflg8.test,

1363 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p

1391 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
1393 * tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
1394 since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
1396 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
1397 that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
1398 reading the generated Makefiles.
1399 * automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
1401 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1402 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
1403 on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
1404 time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
1405 * tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
1406 reported by Akim Demaille.
1408 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...
1409 (Directories): ... this, and split into ...
1410 (Subdirectories, Conditional Subdirectories): ... these.
1411 (Subdirectories): Illustrate the use of `.'.
1412 (Conditional Subdirectories): Describe SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS
1413 before the example. Append a discussion about non-configured
1414 conditional directories.
1415 (Alternative): Move as a child of Directories.
1416 (Subpackages): New section.
1417 (Dist): Adjust links to Subdirectories, a Subpackages.
1418 (Third-Party Makefiles): Link to Conditional Subdirectories.
1420 2004-07-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1422 * automake.in (target_hook): Accept %transform as last argument.
1423 (handle_single_transform): Pass %transform to target_hook.
1424 (handle_source_transform): Define DIST_SOURCE to tell whether
1425 a the source of a file is distributed or not.
1426 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Check DIST_SOURCE, and do not distribute
1427 the generated header if the .y source is not distributed.
1428 * tests/pr204.test: Use AM_YFLAGS = -d and make sure generated
1429 headers are not distributed.
1431 2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)
1433 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Improve ustar file name length
1434 discussion. Reference tar manual.
1436 2004-07-12 Ray Simard <rhs.techlists@sylvan-glade.com> (tiny change)
1438 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Fix precondition check.
1440 2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1442 For PR automake/428:
1443 Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
1444 * automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
1445 (handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
1446 handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
1447 adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
1448 it is always defined an phony.
1449 * tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
1450 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1451 Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
1453 2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1455 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
1456 /tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
1457 * lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
1458 has been moribund for a decade.
1459 Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
1460 -c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
1461 compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
1462 Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
1463 Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
1464 * tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
1465 moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
1467 2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1469 For Debian Bug#254372:
1470 * doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
1471 explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
1473 2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1475 For Debian Bug #251820:
1476 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
1477 file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
1478 Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
1479 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
1480 * tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
1482 2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1484 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
1485 so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
1486 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1488 2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1490 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
1491 bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
1492 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1494 2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1496 * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
1497 `-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
1498 * tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
1499 depmod=gcc otherwise.
1500 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1502 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
1503 `rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
1504 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1506 2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1508 * NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
1510 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1512 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
1513 of $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
1514 and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
1515 Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
1516 "files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.
1517 Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
1519 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
1520 nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
1522 (Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
1523 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1525 2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1527 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
1529 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
1531 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
1532 by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
1534 * tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
1536 * lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
1537 multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
1538 by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
1540 2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1542 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
1543 instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
1545 * tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
1546 Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
1548 * tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
1550 * NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
1552 * automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
1553 non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
1554 is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
1555 (handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
1556 library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.
1557 * tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
1560 Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
1561 to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
1562 restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
1564 * automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
1565 handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
1566 (check_directories_in_var): New function.
1567 (handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
1568 suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
1569 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
1570 to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
1571 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
1572 cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
1573 (Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
1574 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1575 undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
1576 skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
1577 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
1578 top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
1579 `..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
1580 * tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
1581 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
1582 * tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
1585 2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
1587 * tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
1588 cygwin compatibility.
1589 * tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
1591 * tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
1592 a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
1594 2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1596 * m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
1597 * tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
1599 * tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
1600 contains the macro name.
1601 Report from Volker Boerchers.
1603 2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1605 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1607 2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1609 * automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
1610 the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
1611 * tests/clean2.test: New file.
1612 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
1613 Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
1615 * aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
1616 macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
1617 already diagnoses them.
1618 (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1620 * tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
1621 warning instead of an error.
1622 * tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
1623 macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.
1624 * tests/acloca17.test: New file.
1625 * tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
1626 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
1627 Report from Jim Meyering.
1629 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1630 Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
1631 Suggested by Karl Berry.
1633 * automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
1634 diagnostics when no input file is found.
1635 * tests/output5.test: Adjust.
1636 Suggested by Jens Petersen.
1638 2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1640 * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
1641 * automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
1642 output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.
1643 * tests/ar2.test: New file.
1644 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1645 Report from Kevin Ryde.
1647 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1652 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
1653 * tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
1654 Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
1655 in spite of the error.
1656 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1658 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
1659 doubled word in footnote.
1661 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
1662 $(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
1663 Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
1664 * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
1665 $(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
1667 2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1669 * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
1670 uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
1671 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
1672 * lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
1673 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
1675 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1677 * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
1678 Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
1679 parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
1680 references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
1681 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1683 2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1685 * tests/defs.in (GNUmake): Grep for GNU to parry FreeBSD make.
1686 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1688 2004-04-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1690 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1692 * lib/depcomp (tru64): Clarify comments. Thanks to Nicolas Joly.
1694 * doc/automake.texi (Headers): Revamp.
1696 2004-04-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1698 * automake.in (check_typos): Clarify the diagnostic.
1699 * tests/warnopts.test: Adjust.
1701 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Turn VAR_ASIS variables into
1702 VAR_PRETTY variables to work around make implementation with
1703 limited line length, such as OSF1/Tru64 make.
1704 * tests/longline.test: New file.
1705 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1706 * tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
1707 Report from Simon Josefsson.
1709 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
1710 --etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it
1711 creates the TAGS file anyway.
1712 Report from Akim Demaille.
1714 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Nicolas Joly reported on
1715 2002-06-12 that dependencies were output in $dir.libs/$base.lo.d.
1716 Teun Burgers reported on 2004-03-30 they were in
1717 $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Try both.

1784 ($automake_will_process_aux_dir): New variable.
1785 (scan_autoconf_traces): Reorder @input_files so that the Makefile
1786 that distributes aux files is processed last. This way we do not
1787 have to process all files twice using
1788 $automake_will_process_aux_dir.

1850 not work. This improves performance in the usual case where
1851 "mv -f" works. It also lets us install the "mv" command

1883 Fix for PR automake/285:
1884 * automake.in (handle_ltlibraries): Keep track of installation

2037 2004-01-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2039 * tests/lex5.test: Sleep before calling AUTOMAKE the second time,

2199 Report from Harlan Stenn.
2201 2004-01-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

2258 Suggested by Tom Tromey.
2260 Do not output .lo rules for programs and static libraries objects,

2262 about explicit rules only, not inference rules.
2263 * automake.in (handle_single_transform_list): Rename as ...
2264 (handle_single_transform): ... this. Take a single file
2265 to transform (it was only called this way) and accept a new
