3 test defs: rename requirement 'non-cross' -> 'native'
4 * tests/defs.in (non-cross): Rename requirement ...
5 (native): ... to this, which is clearer and fits the
7 Suggestion by Ralf Wildenhues.
9 2011-05-15 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
11 testsuite: be more cross-compile friendly
12 * tests/defs.in (cross_compiling): New subroutine.
13 (am__tool_prefix): New internal variable.
14 (gcc, g++, gcj): Force the use of the correct "tool prefix"

18 2011-05-07 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
20 tests: fix spurious failure of txinfo21.test on FreeBSD
21 * tests/txinfo21.test: Use the `is_newest' subroutine instead of
22 the `ls -t' hack to to determine whether a file has been updated.
23 This is required because at least FreeBSD `ls' do not sort files
24 with the same timestamp in alphabetical order when using the `-t'

29 tests defs: allow requirements for compilers (mostly dummy)
30 Most of the new requirements that are now accepted in `$required'
31 as consequence of this patch are still dummy. They are planned
32 to be implemented only in master (or in some derived branch), but
33 having them here (even just as no-op) will allow for an easier
34 integration/backporting of potential new testcases.
35 * tests/defs.in (cc, c++, fortran, fortran77): New requirements,
37 (flex): New requirement, picking LEX for configure.
38 (lex): New requirement, alias for `flex'. A more appropriate
39 implementation, looking for a generic `lex' program, will follow
41 (yacc): New requirement, alias for `bison'. A more appropriate
42 implementation, looking for a generic `yacc' program, will follow

47 tests: fix spurious failure in a test on TESTS (VPATH-related)
48 * tests/check-tests-in-builddir.test: When not using the
49 parallel-tests option, do not check that VPATH components are
50 not present in the displayed test name, since the simple-tests
51 driver do not try to strip them.

77 2011-04-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
79 tests: remove redundant test `mclean.test'

84 2011-04-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
86 testsuite: more environment sanitization

114 depcomp tests: don't reject slower dependency extractors
115 * tests/depcomp8b.test: Add the `--enable-dependency-tracking'
116 option to `configure' invocations, so that slower dependency
117 extractors are not rejected.
118 * tests/depcomp8a.test: Likewise. Also ...
119 (foo.c): ... since we are at it, fix spacing to be consistent
120 with GNU coding standards.

169 * tests/depcomp10.test: Make it executable. Fix a blunder that
170 has left part of an intended comment not prefixed by `#', thus
171 causing shell syntax errors. In this same comment, break a
172 too-long reported error message on multiple lines, for clarity.
173 Add reference to the relevant bug report. Add a comment which
174 explains why the test result 'skipped' if the first "make" call
175 fails. Add other useful comments.
176 * tests/depcomp9.test: Slightly improve comments.

190 test defs: fix 'javac' requirement for older JDK versions
191 The Java compiler from JDK 1.5 (and presumably earlier versions)
192 cannot handle the `-version' option by itself; and while it does
193 print the version number, it then errors out with an usage error:
196 javac: no source files
197 Usage: javac <options> <source files>
199 Luckily, adding the `-help' option to the `javac' invocation
200 seems to fix this problem.
201 * tests/defs.in (javac): Pass also the `-help' option to the
202 `javac' program. Add a comment explaining why it is needed.
203 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.

235 Fix makedepend depmode for VPATH builds.
236 * lib/depcomp [makedepend]: Remove any VPATH prefix from the

304 maintcheck: look for problematic names of testcases
305 The configure.in stub created by default by `tests/defs' obtains
306 the first argument of AC_INIT from the test name, and this can
307 cause some supported autoconf versions to fail with a spurious
308 error if that test name contains the name of an m4 or m4sugar
309 builtin or macro (e.g., `defn' or `m4_undefine').
310 See for example the bug fixed by commit v1.11-287-g1325a8a.
311 This change add a maintainer check that warns about test names
312 which are possibly problematic in this regard.
313 * Makefile.am (sc_test_names): New maintainer-check target.
314 (syntax_check_rules): Add it.
315 (m4_builtins): New helper variable.
316 (TESTS): Updated according to the following renamings.
317 * tests/include.test: Renamed ...

331 and create a dummy alloca.c file, to ensure that we fail for the
333 * tests/alloca2.test: Likewise. Also, look for LT_INIT, not

341 tests: fix bug (comments-in-var-defn.test + autoconf 2.62)
342 * tests/comments-in-var-defn.test: The configure.in stub created
343 by default, which has the AC_INIT first argument obtained by the
344 test name, causes autoconf 2.62 to fail with a spurious error
345 message like: "configure.in:1: error: defn: undefined macro:".

365 to unindent without using a temporary file.

369 libtool: suggest LT_INIT if LTLIBRARIES primary is used
370 When the LTLIBRARIES primary was used, but $(LIBTOOL) wasn't
371 defined, automake suggested to add a call to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
372 in configure.ac. But that macro is deprecated since Libtool
373 version 1.9b (2004-08-29), in favor of the newer LT_INIT. So
374 suggest the use of this latter macro instead.
375 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_am_macro_for_var): Pair 'LIBTOOL'
376 with 'LT_INIT', not with 'AC_PROG_LIBTOOL'.
377 * tests/libtool4.test: Adjust and extend. Also, add a call to
378 macro AC_PROG_CC in configure.in, to help ensuring that automake
379 does not fail for the wrong reasons.
380 * tests/ltinit.test: New test, ensure that automake's libtool
381 support works with LT_INIT-based interface.
382 Thanks to Jack Kelly for the suggestion.

386 tests: tempdirs with restrictive permissions are cleaned correctly
387 Before this change, the removal of a temporary test directory
388 containing subdirectories with restrictive permissions (such as
389 'r--r--r--') could fail.
390 * tests/defs: Ensure that all the subdirectories of a temporary

449 thus causing colored test output not to be automatically
450 activated when it should.

521 docs: automake testsuite doesn't use TESTS_ENVIRONMENT anymore
522 * doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests): Do not claim Automake uses
523 TESTS_ENVIRONMENT for the perl driver. Instead, point to the
524 parallel-tests driver.
526 2011-01-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
528 Allow _AM_DEPENDENCIES to be used later in configure.

542 tests: allow double-colon spy.test to work with HP-UX make.
543 * tests/spy.test: Fix comment typos. Ensure prerequisites we
544 do not want to depend on are strictly older than the target.
545 Also test with a target out of date wrt. more than one rule.

556 parallel-tests: work around Tru64/OSF 5.1 sh read bugs.
557 * lib/am/check.am ($(TEST_SUITE_LOG), recheck, recheck-html):
558 Test file readability before redirecting input from it, to avoid
559 exiting Tru64/OSF 5.1 sh which treats read as special builtin.
560 * tests/parallel-tests-unreadable-log.test: New test.
561 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

588 tests: fix spurious failures in two texinfo tests
589 * tests/txinfo.test ($required): Add 'makeinfo'.
590 * tests/txinfo8.test: Create a dummy 'textutils.info' file, so
591 that make won't try to run makeinfo (which could be unavailable)
593 Found by NixOS Hydra, reported by Ralf Wildenhues.
595 2011-01-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
597 Avoid testsuite failures due to Autoconf Fortran change.
598 Autoconf v2.68-21-g727ce95 causes AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS to
599 require computing the canonical host name. Ensure config.guess
600 and config.sub files are present for respective checks.

602 * tests/flibs.test: Likewise.
603 * tests/fort4.test: Use $AUTOMAKE -a for installing files.

630 tests: work around a texi+cygnus bug causing a spurious XFAIL
631 * tests/txinfo5b.test: New test, like txinfo5.test but calling
632 automake with the `-Wno-override' option to work around a bug
633 in the texinfo + cygnus interaction.
634 * tests/txinfo5.test: Update heading comments.

642 2011-01-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
644 Improve, extend and tweak tests on Texinfo support.
645 * tests/instdir-texi.test: Add a call to `ls -l' after that to
646 `make', for debugging. When looking for required tools, do not
647 redirect the output of "$tool --help" to /dev/null, and do not
648 uselessly run it in a subshell.
649 * tests/txinfo.test: Rewritten to run autoconf, ./configure and
650 make. All checks moved into Makefile.am.
651 * tests/txinfo8.test: Likewise, and modernize the generated
653 * tests/txinfo2.test: Moved checks into Makefile.am, and other
655 * tests/txinfo5.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
656 changes. Add trailing `:' command.
657 * tests/txinfo6.test: Likewise, and make grepping of generated
658 Makefile.in stricter.
659 * tests/txinfo7.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
660 changes. Add trailing `:' command. Do not add unnecessary stuff
662 * tests/txinfo9.test: Verify that more targets which are expected
663 to be generated only once really are. Make grepping less strict,
664 to avoid exposing too much internal details. More minor changes.
665 * tests/txinfo16.test: Add trailing `:'. Prefer cat over echo
666 for appending to configure.in. Updated/fixed heading comments.
667 * tests/txinfo23.test: Likewise, and extended a little by making
668 it check that no info file is created in the $(srcdir).
669 * tests/txinfo24.test: Likewise.
670 * tests/txinfo25.test: Likewise.
671 * tests/txinfo18.test: Add trailing `:'. Prefer cat over echo
672 for appending to configure.in. Also, check that index files are
673 cleaned also by "make clean", not only by "make distclean".
674 * tests/txinfo22.test: Prefer `$me' over hard-coded test name,
675 and added trailing `:' command. This testcase also used to check
676 that automake ignores in-line comments when using variables, but
677 preserves them in the output; these checks (added in commit
678 "Release-1-7f-4-g9177ef8") do not really pertain to this test,
679 so they have been moved ...
680 * tests/comments-in-var-defn.test: ... into this new test.
681 * tests/txinfo4.test: Escape literal dots in grep regexps. Add
682 trailing `:' command.
683 * tests/txinfo29.test: Likewise. Relax grepping of generated
684 Makefile.in w.r.t. whitespaces. Prefer `cat' over `echo' to
685 append to configure.in.
686 * tests/txinfo3.test: Likewise.
687 * tests/vtexi.test: Improve grepping of Makefile.in (sometimes
688 make it stricter, sometimes laxer). Move `set -e' setting just
689 after the inclusion of ./defs. De-uglify a sed command. Other
690 minor cosmetic improvements.
691 * tests/vtexi2.test: Make grepping of Makefile.in stricter. Add
692 trailing `:' command.
693 * tests/vtexi3.test: New test on version.texi support.
694 * tests/vtexi4.test: Likewise.

718 Add test coverage for deleted header files.
719 * tests/depcomp6.test, tests/depcomp7.test: Update tests to
720 also check for the deleted header bug. If no dependency
721 tracking mechanism could be found, SKIP rather than exit
722 successfully. Use GNU style spacing and ANSI C prototypes.
724 Fix typos in Rule.pm comments.

806 distlinksbrk.test: Work around botched "make -k".
807 * tests/distlinksbrk.test: Run "make" multiple times and grep
808 its output each time for a single error message, rather than
809 running "make -k" one single time and grepping its output for
810 all the expected error messages. This should work around make
811 implementations with limited (broken?) `-k' support; for more
812 information, see these subthreads on the automake-patches list:

863 Fix spurious failures in `silent*.test' for $CC != gcc
864 In some tests on automake-produced silent rules, we forced the
865 use of gcc depmode to improve testsuite coverage; but this has
866 unsurprisingly led to spurious failures when some non-GNU C
867 compilers were used. So we are now careful to require GCC in
868 tests that force gcc depmode.
869 From reports by Ralf Wildenhues.
870 * tests/silent5.test: Test removed, its content split into ...
871 * tests/silent-many-generic.test, tests/silent-many-gcc.test: ...

986 of AIX 5.3 make which doesn't allow setting the `$(SHELL)' macro
987 on the commend line. Calls to `$MAKE' adjusted accordingly.

999 not supported by the AIX 5.3 make implementation.

1020 * doc/automake.texi: Rebuild menus (using ^C ^U ^A in emacs).
1021 Thanks to Ian Lance Taylor for the suggestion.
1023 Fix install-strip when $(STRIP) contains several words.
1024 * lib/am/install.am (install-strip): Update comment. Use
1025 separate sub-make invocations for empty and nonempty $(STRIP),
1026 to fix quoting issues.
1027 * tests/strip2.test, tests/strip3.test: New tests.
1028 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Adjust.
1030 2010-11-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1032 Fix yaccdry.test failure: require bison.
1033 * tests/yaccdry.test: Require bison.
1034 Found by NixOS Hydra.
1036 2010-11-07 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1038 Fix a bug in variable concatenation with `+='.
1039 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Since the content of the
1040 "appended-to" variable is going to be unconditionally normalized
1041 later, simply separate the appended value with a single whitespace
1042 character, instead of trying to be uselessly smarter by using
1043 escaped newlines. This fixes a bug in which extra backslashes
1044 where erroneously inserted in the variable's final value.
1045 * tests/pluseq11.test: New test, exposing the bug.
1046 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
1047 Reported by Andy Wingo.

1053 if control structure in a generated make rules. Bug introduced
1054 by previous commit `v1.11-221-gd7c1679', and revealed by failure
1055 of test `vala2.test'.
1057 2010-11-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1059 Fix and document rules to not touch the tree with `make -n'.
1060 * doc/automake.texi (Multiple Outputs): Document the problem of
1061 modifications during dry-run execution, propose solution.
1063 * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Split recipe so the
1064 stamp file is not removed with GNU `make -n'.
1065 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Separate removal of parser output file
1066 and header remaking.
1067 * lib/am/lisp.am ($(am__ELCFILES)): Determine whether -n was
1068 passed to make, take care not to remove any files in that case.
1069 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Separate removal of
1070 %STAMP% file from induced remaking of config header.

1083 Add support for newer python versions.
1084 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Add python2.7 and python3.2 to

1094 Fix nits and bugs in tests `help*.test'.
1095 * tests/help4.test: Fix broken sed commands used to strip `-W...'
1096 flags away from "$AUTOMAKE" and "$ACLOCAL".
1097 * tests/help3.test: Likewise, and fix a botched comment.
1098 * tests/help.test: Likewise. Also, use "AUTOMAKE_fails ..."
1099 instead of "$AUTOMAKE ... && Exit 1", for consistency and to
1100 please maintainer-check.

1103 2010-10-03 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1104 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1106 Improve tests `help*.test' (also fixes maintcheck failures).
1107 * tests/help.test: To run automake, use `$AUTOMAKE' with all `-W'
1108 flags stripped away rather than hard-coded `automake-$APIVERSION',
1109 to better honour user-overrides. Similarly for aclocal.

1117 * doc/automake.texi (General Operation): Document that variables
1118 are expanded before rules.
1119 * lib/am/check.am (am__check_post): Reword a bit so it does not
1120 get matched as a rule.
1121 Suggestion by Ben Pfaff.
1123 2010-10-02 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1125 Revert "parallel-tests: avoid command-line length limit issue."
1126 This reverts commit 24e3b4ee2f8cb9f72dd94a05a893f3d4e88b7835,
1127 because it re-opened the bug fixed by v1.11-10-g218e678.

1142 2010-09-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1144 Extend tests on `--help' and `--version' options.
1145 * tests/help.test: Create a new empty directory and chdir into
1146 it, rather than removing already present files. Run the aclocal
1147 and automake wrapper scripts directly, instead of relying on
1148 $AUTOMAKE and $ACLOCAL. Be sure to correctly match literal dots
1149 in aclocal's and automake's stderr. Add a trailing `:' command.
1150 * tests/help2.test: New test, checking that options `--help' and
1151 `--version' works in directories with broken `configure.in'.
1152 * tests/help3.test: New test, checking that options `--help' and
1153 `--version' take precedence on the other options.
1154 * tests/help4.test: New test, checking that the first among the
1155 `--help' and `--version' options to be specified on the command
1157 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated.

1184 2010-09-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1186 Manual: be more agnostic w.r.t. version control system used.
1187 * doc/automake.texi (Basics of Distribution): Also refer to `.svn'
1188 directories as a type of probably-unwanted files that are copied
1189 regardless when adding directories to EXTRA_DIST.
1190 (The dist Hook): Show a dist-hook example which removes Subversion
1191 `.svn' private directories from distdir, rather than CVS private

1197 * doc/automake.texi (General Operation): Index the non-standard
1198 example about "git-dist" under the "git-dist" label, not under
1201 Perl modules: remove references to "Automake CVS repository".
1202 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Update comments to refer to "Automke's

1213 lib/Automake/.cvsignore, lib/Automake/tests/.cvsignore,
1214 m4/.cvsignore, tests/.cvsignore: Files deleted. Even when using
1215 savannah's CVS readonly mirror there's no way to commit back to
1216 the real repository, so this files are not worth maintaining or

1273 that made the test useless. Since we are at it, improve
1274 comments and make grepping of generated Makefile.in slightly
1276 Regression introduced by change "Modernize, improve and/or
1277 extend tests `colon*.test" (Stefano Lattarini, 2010-08-08).
1279 2010-09-08 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1281 Do not require "gzip" explicitly in tests.
1282 The gzip utility is simply expected to be present on any decent
1283 target system for Automake. So it's pointless to put it in
1285 * tests/install2.test ($required): Do not require "gzip".
1286 * tests/lex3.test: Likewise.
1287 * tests/pr9.test: Likewise.
1288 From a suggestion by Ralf Wildenhues.
1290 Make some `confh*.test' tests more "semantic" (plus tweakings).
1291 * tests/confh.test: Run "autoconf", "configure" and "make check",
1292 instead of munging/grepping the generated `Makefile.in'.
1293 * tests/confh4.test: Relax the grepping of Makefile.in w.r.t.
1294 white spaces. Do not create useless dummy source file `foo.c'
1295 and useless dummy header file `acconfig.h'.
1296 (configure.in): Remove superfluous call to `AC_OUTPUT'.
1297 * tests/confh6.test: Add trailing `:' command.
1298 * tests/confh7.test: In comments, add reference to ...

1335 $ls_command is word-split properly upon invocation.
1336 (error): New function.
1337 (main): Use it. Improve error checking to avoid endless loop
1338 in case $ls_command gave bogus output. Fix eval quotation.

1377 * tests/aclocal18.test: Add trailing `:' command, and make
1378 some grepping slightly stricter.
1379 * tests/acloca14.test: Likewise. Also, prefer `diff' over
1380 `cmp', and add some "cosmetic" blank lines.
1382 2010-08-09 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>

1412 * tests/pr224.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
1413 in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Do not export

1415 in ./defs, since we have "gcc" in $required). Use the stub for
1416 `configure.in' created by ./defs, rather than writing it from
1417 scratch. Do not create dummy files required by "gnu" mode (e.g.
1418 README, NEWS), since we run automake in foreign mode anyway.
1419 * tests/pr72.test: Enable `errexit' shell flags, and related
1420 changes. Extend existing checks a bit.
1421 * tests/pr9.test: Likewise. Also, avoid obsolescent constructs in

1433 `--enable-dependecy-tracking' to the ./configure call.

1437 shell flag, and related changes. Add trailing `:' command.

1441 in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Escape literal
1442 dots in grep regular expressions. Also, add a trailing `:'

1462 Tweak, extend and improve tests `cond[a-z]*.test'.
1463 * tests/condd.test: Add trailing `:' command. Typofix in
1465 * tests/condhook.test: Make sure target `install-data-hook' is
1466 not called by `make install', but that data files are installed.
1467 Use proper m4 quoting in configure.in. Add trailing `:' command.
1468 * tests/condhook2.test: New test, sister test of condhook, with
1470 * tests/condinc2.test: Use proper m4 quoting in configure.in.

1481 Modernize, improve and/or extend tests `colon*.test.
1482 * tests/colon.test: Rely on the `configure.in' stub created by
1483 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch. Do not create
1484 a useless dummy file. Add trailing `:' command.
1485 * tests/colon4.test: Enable the `errexit' shell flag, and
1486 related changes. Rely on the `configure.in' stub created by

1520 disabled test (which didn't work with autoconf <= 2.59, but now we
1521 are requiring autoconf 2.62, so...)
1522 * tests/conflnk4.test: Cosmetic changes, and extend existing tests
1523 accordingly to "TODO" comments.
1524 * tests/conff2.test: Make grepping of Automake's stderr stricter.

1526 stub preset be ./defs.
1527 * tests/confh.test: Use the `configure.in' stub created by ./defs,
1528 rather than writing one from scratch, and do not call AC_OUTPUT.
1529 Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related changes. Prefer diff over
1530 cmp to compare text files. Prefer perl over sed to fetch the value
1531 of $(DIST_COMMON) from Makefile.in. Make grepping of the contents

1554 * tests/depcomp.test: Do not create useless dummy source files.
1555 Add a trailing `:' command.
1556 * tests/depcomp2.test: Use `unset' on the CFLAG variable to ensure
1557 it's not in in the environment, rather than exporting it with an
1558 empty value. Do not pass CC=gcc to configure, as that's already
1559 done in ./defs since we have gcc in $required. Ensure verbose
1560 printing of captured stderr, and normalize its checking. Add a
1561 trailing `:' command.
1562 * tests/depcomp3.test: Quote literal dots and dollar characters in
1563 grep regexps. Always use `: >' rather than `touch' to create empty

1577 statement required by OpenBSD's sh `set -e' more robust, and add
1578 explanatory comments to it.
1579 * tests/depcomp7.test: Likewise, and add a trailing `:' command.
1581 Separate failing part of test `all.test'.
1582 * tests/all.test: Keep only (x)failing part of the test. Working

1605 * tests/subobj6.test: Add trailing `:' command. Move setting of
1606 `errexit' shell flag earlier in the script (just after inclusion
1607 of ./defs). Do not create useless dummy ac-init file `f'.
1608 * tests/subobj7.test: Do not create useless dummy ac-init file
1610 (configure.in): Use the stub created by `./defs', rather than
1611 writing it from scratch, and avoid obsolescent constructs.
1612 * tests/subobj9.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
1613 in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Fail the test if
1614 `make distcheck' fails. Ensure verbose printing of captured make
1615 stdout. Avoid useless fork by doing simple grep instead of using
1616 test -n "`COMMAND | grep ...`".
1617 (configure.in): Normalize the call to AC_INIT w.r.t. other tests.
1618 (Makefile.am): Explicitly mark target "print" as phony.

1633 * bootstrap: Do not remove `lib/Automake/Config.pm' anymore,
1634 since we don't generate it. Correctly quote arguments of
1635 `eval' builtin. Fixed a botched error message. Removed an
1638 Bootstrap: don't search perl in $PATH.
1639 * bootstrap: Do not explicitly search perl in $PATH anymore.
1640 ($PATH_SEPARATOR): Removed, it's no more needed.
1642 Bootstrap: let the user choose which autoconf to use.
1643 * bootstrap ($AUTOCONF): New variable, from the environment.
1644 ($AUTOM4TE): Likewise, for clarity.

1700 variable, rather than re-evaluating the shell expression for
1702 * tests/cond40.test: Extend test.
1705 Avoid syntax error if IF-TRUE part of AM_COND_IF expands empty.
1706 * m4/cond-if.m4 (AM_COND_IF): Ensure IF-TRUE part is never empty

1708 * tests/cond40.test: Enhance test.
1710 Coverage: bogus option to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
1711 * tests/init2.test: New test.

1714 2010-07-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1716 Modernize and improve test scripts `subdir*.test'.
1717 * tests/subdir.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
1718 changes. Use the `configure.in' stub created by `./defs',

1721 * tests/subdir4.test: Likewise.
1722 * tests/subdir3.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
1723 changes. Do not create useless dummy source files.
1724 * tests/subdir5.test: Make grepping of Makefile.in (in topdir
1725 and in subdirs) stricter. Some minor changes to keep it more
1726 in sync with the related test `subdir8.test'.
1727 * tests/subdir8.test: Likewise (but with the related test being
1728 `subdir5.test' here).
1729 * tests/subdir6.test: Cosmetic change in spacing.
1730 * tests/subdir9.test: Define and use new variable `$distdir'. Add
1731 trailing `:' command.

1733 * tests/subdirbuiltsources.test: Cosmetic changes in spacings.
1734 (configure.in): Use stub created by `./defs', rather than writing
1735 it from scratch. Do not use obsoleted and/or deprecated forms of
1736 autoconf/automake macros.
1738 Modernize and improve test scripts `dist*.test'.
1739 * tests/distcleancheck.test: Do not add useless `-e' option to
1740 a $MAKE call. Extend test by grepping stderr of make.
1741 * tests/distcom2.test: Do not run the same test script on the
1742 Makefile.in twice, but save its output in an intermediate file
1743 instead. Make grepping of DIST_COMMON definition stricter.
1744 Display the content of more files, to ease debugging. Add a
1745 trailing `:' command. Improved heading comments w.r.t. sister

1766 * tests/distlinks.test: Likewise.
1768 2010-07-18 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1770 Improve and extend test cond5.test.
1771 * tests/cond5.test: Do not blindly sleep 60 seconds before polling
1772 the background automake process, but poll it every 10 seconds for
1773 at most 30 times (this makes the test both faster on good machines,
1774 and more resilient to spurious timeout-due failures when in low
1775 priority or on heavily-loaded systems).
1776 Check also that automake writes the expected error messages on the
1778 Enable `errexit' flag, and related changes.
1779 Rely on the `configure.in' stub created by `./defs', rather than
1780 writing one from scratch.

1792 home page and GNU general help page.
1793 * automake.in (usage): Likewise.
1794 * doc/automake.texi: New flag PACKAGE_BUGREPORT, to factor email
1796 (Introduction, Creating amhello, amhello Explained, Options):

1814 Tests: remove useless repetitions of `foreign' automake option.
1815 * tests/multlib.test (configure.in): Remove useless use of
1816 `foreign' option in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE (the `--foreign' option is
1817 already in $AUTOMAKE by default, so no point in repeating it).
1818 * tests/subobj10.test: Likewise.
1819 * tests/subobj9.test: Likewise.
1820 * tests/lex3.test (Makefile.am): Similarly, remove useless use
1821 of `foreign' option in AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.

1832 2010-06-24 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1834 Fix bugs in test script silent5.test.
1835 * tests/silent5.test: Fixed a nasty bug (due to the use of grep
1836 instead of egrep) that could have led to false negatives.
1838 2010-06-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1840 Add a test checking that distributed broken symlinks cause
1841 `make dist' to fail.

1852 * tests/lflags.test, tests/lflags2.test, tests/yflags.test,
1853 tests/yflags2.test: Prefer `make -e' over `make VAR=VAL', to
1854 please maintainer-check. Ensure generated C files contain a
1855 declaration, to please compilers.
1857 2010-06-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
1859 Fix bugs in Automake Yacc/Lex support w.r.t. $(AM_FLAGS) and
1860 $(FLAGS) precedence.
1861 * automake.in: Fix registration of languages "Lex", "Lex (C++)",
1862 "Yacc" and "Yacc (C++)", so that $(LFLAGS) has precedence over
1863 $(AM_LFLAGS) and $(YFLAGS) has precedence over $(AM_YFLAGS).
1864 * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Updated accordingly.
1867 New tests, exposing bugs in Automake Yacc/Lex support w.r.t.
1868 $(AM_FLAGS) and $(FLAGS) precedence.
1869 * tests/lflags.test: New test, check that user $(LFLAGS) takes
1870 precedence over automake (AM_LFLAGS) and (foo_LFLAGS). Still
1872 * tests/lflags2.test: Likewise.

1889 changes. Make grepping of Makefile.in slightly stricter.
1890 * tests/suffix.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, and related
1891 changes. Also, do not redirect grep output to /dev/null, as this
1892 might unmotivatedly hide useful information.
1893 * tests/suffix2.test: Move setting of `errexit' shell flag earlier
1894 in the script (just after inclusion of ./defs). Use a more
1895 idiomatic way to count text occurrences in Makefile.in with
1896 grep. Do not create useless dummy source files.
1897 * tests/suffix10.test: Ensure verbose printing of captured make
1898 stdout. Minor cosmetic changes.

1912 useless `if' statement is indeed required.
1914 Add useful comment in test script obsolete.test.
1915 * tests/obsolete.test: Add a comment explaining why we need
1916 an indirection in adding $AUTOUPDATE to $required.
1918 Normalize whitespaces in 'tests/Makefile.am'.
1919 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Use only spaces, not tabs, in the

1930 Modernize, improve and/or fix various test scripts.
1931 * tests/symlink3.test: Deleted, separated into two new, more
1933 * tests/forcemiss.test: ... this one ...
1934 * tests/forcemiss2.test: ... and this one.
1935 * tests/symlink2.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, make test

1937 * tests/postproc.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, related
1938 changes, and a couple of unrelated cosmetic changes.
1939 * tests/recurs.test: Use the `configure.in' stub created by
1940 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch. Make grepping
1941 of Automake stderr slightly stricter.
1942 * tests/substtarg.test: Likewise.
1943 * tests/strip.test: Likewise, and move the call to `set -e'
1944 earlier (just after the inclusion of `./defs'). Also, make sure
1945 that the script installed by `make install-script' is equal to
1947 * tests/substref.test: Use the `configure.in' stub created by
1948 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch. Move the call
1949 to `set -e' earlier (just after the inclusion of `./defs').
1950 Avoid to explicitly export CC for configure (that's already done
1951 in ./defs). Avoid potential problems with unpredictable make
1952 output. Finally, make grepping of Makefile.in stricter.
1953 * tests/substre2.test: Ensure verbose printing of the captured
1954 make's output, and make its grepping slightly stricter.

1965 * tests/pluseq10.test: Make sure that the captured output of
1966 `make' command is always displayed. Where possible, use $FGREP
1967 instead of grep (this change makes some checks slightly stricter).
1968 * tests/pluseq8.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, with related
1970 * tests/pluseq.test: Likewise. Also, do not create useless dummy
1971 data files, and use better m4 quoting in generated configure.in.
1972 * tests/pluseq2.test: Likewise. Also, append to configure.in
1973 using cat with an here-doc, not using echo.

1981 Testsuite: ensure verbose printing of captured stderr.
1982 * tests/acloca18.test: Print captured stderr before either failing
1983 or grepping it. Be sure to send captured stderr to stderr, not to

1997 * tests/vars3.test: Likewise.
1998 * tests/missing4.test: Likewise, and fix a call to grep not to use
2000 * tests/ansi3.test: Likewise, and rely on the `configure.in' stub
2001 created by `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch.
2003 Enable `errexit' shell flag in various tests.
2004 * tests/backsl.test: Enable the `errexit' shell flag, and
2006 * tests/backsl2.test: Likewise.

2016 related changes. Do some cosmetic improvements in the generated
2017 `configure.in' file.

2019 * tests/cond14.test: Likewise.
2020 * tests/condinc.test: Likewise.

2022 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS to `foreign' in the generated Makefile.am.
2023 * tests/ansi.test: Enable the `errexit' shell flag, and related
2024 changes. Extended, esp. by running autoconf, ./configure and

2028 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2030 Extend tests/README w.r.t. trailing `:' in test scripts.
2031 * tests/README (section "Writing test cases" subsection "Do"):
2032 Explain why apparently redundant trailing `:' and `Exit 0' in
2033 test scripts can indeed be useful.
2035 2010-06-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2037 Improve determination of PATH separator in bootstrap script.
2038 * bootstrap: Determine what the PATH separator is the same way
2041 Minor improvements in bootstrap script.
2042 * bootstrap: Consistently use two-spaces indentation. Cosmetic
2043 improvement to comments.
2044 ($me): New variable, containing program basename.
2045 Prepend it to all error messages.
2047 Testsuite now works with BSD make in parallel mode.
2048 * tests/defs.in: Unset variables __MKLVL__ and MAKE_JOBS_FIFO,
2049 which are exported by BSD make when run in parallel mode, and
2050 which can confuse make processes spawned by our testsuite.
2051 This change fixes a lot of spurious failure when the testsuite
2052 is run with BSD make in parallel mode.
2054 2010-06-09 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2056 Modernize, improve and/or fix various test scripts.
2057 * tests/sanity.test: Rely on the `configure.in' stub created by
2058 `./defs', rather than writing one from scratch.
2059 * tests/depend2.test: Likewise. Also, call `set -e' just after
2060 the inclusion of `./defs', instead that later in the script.
2061 * tests/canon5.test: Avoid a useless `|| Exit 1' after a call to
2062 $AUTOMAKE, and improve the positioning of an $ACLOCAL call.
2063 * tests/exeext4.test: Use $FGREP instead of grep, where possible.
2064 Make auxiliary rules in the generated Makefile more silent.
2065 These changes make some checks slightly stricter.
2066 * tests/ext2.test: Call `Exit 1' if inclusion of `./defs' fails.
2067 * tests/gettext2.test: Place final `:' at the end of the script,
2068 rather than in the middle.
2069 * tests/exeext.test: Call `set -e' just after the inclusion of
2070 `./defs', instead that later in the script.
2071 * tests/extra5.test: Likewise.

2073 plain `mv', just to be sure.
2074 * tests/depcomp.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag, with related
2075 changes. Also, modernize the generated configure.in.
2076 * tests/cond9.test: Likewise. Also, rely on the `configure.in'

2080 * tests/depend3.test: Likewise.
2081 * tests/distcom7.test: Likewise.
2082 * tests/fortdep.test: Likewise. Also, remove definition of
2083 AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS to `foreign' in the generated Makefile.am,
2084 since that flag is already provided by $AUTOMAKE.
2085 * tests/mdate.test: Made stricter, by checking that Automake
2086 actually failed, and by making a stricter grep on the error
2087 message. Also, set shell `errexit flag'.
2088 * tests/python2.test: Improved verbose messages.
2090 Make test `ammissing.test' stricter.
2091 * tests/ammissing.test: Fail if $ACLOCAL succeeds unexpectedly.

2109 command substitution.
2110 * tests/unused.test: Likewise, and don't use an easily-avoided
2111 command substitution.
2112 * tests/version.test: Likewise, and avoid deprecated constructs
2113 in the generated `configure.in'.
2114 * tests/version2.test: Likewise, and avoid deprecated constructs
2115 in the generated `configure.in'.
2117 2010-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2119 Prefer AUTOMAKE_fails over `$AUTOMAKE | grep' in tests.
2120 * tests/ldadd.test: Enable errexit. Use AUTOMAKE_fails so
2121 the verbose log contains all output.
2122 * tests/mdate.test: Likewise.
2123 Prompted by Stefano Lattarini's change to discover.test.
2125 2010-06-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2127 Improve tests link*.test (enable `errexit' shell flag).

2137 2010-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2139 Improve ext.test semantics, avoid OpenBSD sh errexit issue.
2140 * tests/ext.test: Inside shell compound command, use
2141 `if $cmd; then Exit 1; fi' rather than `$cmd && Exit 1', to
2142 fix failure with OpenBSD sh introduced with last patch.
2143 Actually ensure that a rule for .EXT.o is created for each
2144 known extension EXT.
2146 2010-06-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>

2216 2010-06-06 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2218 Rewrite manual to be gender-neutral.
2219 * doc/automake.texi (GNU Build System)
2220 (Standard Directory Variables, General Operation, CVS)
2221 (Hard-Coded Install Paths, Dependencies As Side Effects):
2222 Rewrite text to not contain gender-specific pronouns when
2223 speaking about developers or users, either by avoiding pronouns
2224 or by addressing them as `you' instead.
2226 Report by Christina Gratorp.
2230 2010-06-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2232 Make tests on user extensibility of silent-rules mode stricter.
2233 * tests/silent6.test: Made stricter w.r.t. the grepping of the
2234 output produced by `make'.
2235 * tests/silent7.test: Likewise.
2237 Tests on silent-mode for C/Libtool made stricter.
2238 * tests/silent.test: Made stricter w.r.t. the grepping of the
2239 output produced by `make'.
2240 * tests/silent2.test: Likewise.
2241 * tests/silent4.test: Likewise.
2242 * tests/silent9.test: Likewise.
2243 * tests/silent3.test: Likewise, and add a final `make distclean'
2244 command to keep it better in sync with tests/silent{4,9}.test.
2246 Improved test silent5.test.
2247 * tests/silent5.test: Remove by hand all generated C files after
2248 non-verbose builds, to ensure the following builds are clean.
2249 Try to clean and rebuild with the same verbosity and without
2250 removing generated sources in between, to check that this does
2251 not trigger a different set of rules. Make grepping of make's
2252 output stricter. Improved/added some comments.
2254 New tests for Automake silent-mode with Fortran.
2255 * tests/silentf77.test: New test.
2256 * tests/silentf90.test: Likewise.
2257 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2259 New test `silentcxx.test' (Automake silent-mode with C++).
2260 * tests/silentcxx.test: New test.
2261 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2263 New test `silentyacc.test' (Automake silent-mode with Yacc).
2264 * tests/silentyacc.test: New test.
2265 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2267 New test `silentlex.test' (Automake silent-mode with Lex).
2268 * tests/silentlex.test: New test.
2269 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2271 Relax tests on silent-rules to cater to overly verbose makes.
2272 * tests/silent.test: When testing silent builds, don't fail if
2273 make's output simply contains the `mv' substring, but only if
2274 it contains the `mv ' substring (note the trailing space).
2275 * tests/silent2.test: Likewise.

2281 2010-01-24 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2283 Fix silent-rules output for disabled dependency tracking.
2284 * lib/am/depend2.am [!%FASTDEP%]: Rework silent-rules variable
2285 expansion code to also work in the case where %AMDEP% expands
2286 to FALSE at config.status time, using new substitution string
2288 * automake.in (verbose_nodep_flag): New function, appending
2289 `@am__nodep@' to the verbose-variable name.
2290 (handle_languages): If dependencies are not disabled, use it to
2291 set %VERBOSE-NODEP%.
2292 * m4/depend.m4: Substitute am__nodep as '_no', so the second
2293 verbose-variable will always expand to an empty string, if
2294 dependencies are enabled.
2295 * tests/silent5.test: Also test --disable-dependency-tracking;
2296 also test per-target flags for non-C language files.
2297 * tests/silent9.test: New test, like silent4.test but disable
2298 dependency tracking.
2299 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
2300 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.
2301 Report by Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>.
2303 2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2305 Extend test on `nostdinc' automake option.
2306 * tests/nostdinc.test: Enable `errexit' shell flag. Related and
2307 unrelated minor changes. Make the grepping of the generated
2308 Makefile.in slightly stricter. Generate and run configure, so that
2309 the generated Makefile can be grepped too.
2311 2010-05-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2313 Make gnupload portable to EBCDIC hosts.
2314 * lib/gnupload: Use literal newline as argument for 'tr' rather
2315 than \015, for EBCDIC hosts. Also, avoid unportable nested
2316 double-quotes and backquotes.
2318 Report from Eric Blake and Steve Goetze via gnulib.
2320 2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2322 Fix Autoconf version required by Automake's configure.
2323 Automake configure script used to tell that automake required
2324 autoconf 2.60 or later, but then it checked for autoconf >= 2.62,
2325 and if that was not found, it gave an error saying that Automake
2326 required configure 2.61a-341 or later. This change should
2327 eliminate such inconsistencies.
2328 * configure.ac ($required_autoconf_version): New variable.
2331 2010-05-23 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2333 Fix unportable sed script in maintainer-check test.
2334 * Makefile.am (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Rewrite sed script to
2335 not contain semicolon after 'b' or brace commands, for NetBSD.
2337 Wildcards are not portable to NetBSD make.
2338 * doc/automake.texi (Wildcards): Document portability issue.
2339 * tests/extra10.test, tests/extra11.test, tests/extra12.test:
2342 2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2344 Make test for configure.in vs. configure.ac stricter.
2345 * tests/configure.test: Use a configure.in file that provokes
2346 an automake error, to ensure configure.ac is preferred.
2348 Avoid possible false negatives in dejagnu7.test.
2349 * tests/dejagnu7.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag. Also, avoid
2350 unportable use of fgrep option `-e'.
2352 Fix conflnk3.test to work with Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
2353 * tests/conflnk3.test: Use `test -r FILE' and `test ! -r FILE'
2354 instead of respectively `test -e FILE' and `test ! -e FILE',
2355 since Solaris Sh doesn't grok the latter. Do not SKIP the test
2356 if the shell doesn't support `test -e'.
2358 2010-04-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2361 * doc/automake.texi (Simple Tests using parallel-tests): Add
2362 missing closing parenthesis.
2364 Fix leftover call to removed function macros_dump.
2365 * automake.in (read_main_am_file): Call variables_dump, not
2366 macros_dump. Print actual error before list of variables.
2368 2010-04-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2370 Minor improvements in comments of test `silent3.test'.
2371 * tests/silent3.test: Tell to keep it in sync with `silent9.test'
2374 2010-04-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2376 testsuite: ensure verbose printing of captured output.
2377 * tests/acloca14.test, tests/acloca18.test, tests/aclocal.test,
2378 tests/fort2.test, tests/help.test, tests/missing3.test,
2379 tests/missing6.test: Print captured stdout or stderr before
2382 2010-04-20 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2384 Make test badopt.test stricter (by enabling `set -e').
2385 * tests/badopt.test: Add call to `set -e'. Due to this change,
2386 an unexpected failure in the call to `$ACLOCAL' (whose outcome
2387 was previously unchecked) would cause the whole test to fail.
2388 Also, bumped the copyright years.
2390 Make test for configure.in vs. configure.ac stricter.
2391 * tests/configure.test: Use a configure.in file that provokes
2392 an automake error, to ensure configure.ac is preferred.
2394 Use `set -e' in confsub.test (avoids possible false negatives).
2395 * tests/confsub.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag, and related
2396 changes (this helps avoiding some possible minor false negatives).
2397 Also, bumped copyright years.
2399 2010-04-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2401 Fix -Werror handling for presence of configure.in and configure.ac.
2402 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (Automake::Variable): Do not initialize
2403 $configure_ac at the global level, before command-line arguments
2405 (require_variables): Initialize it here.
2406 * tests/configure.test: New test.
2407 * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
2408 Report by Stefano Lattarini.
2410 2010-04-20 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2412 Avoid possible false negatives in confh5.test.
2413 * tests/confh5.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag, and bumped
2414 copyright years. Due to this change, any unexpected failure
2415 in calls to $ACLOCAL, $AUTOMAKE, $AUTOCONF or $AUTOHEADER, or
2416 a failure in grepping expected text in output files should now
2417 cause the whole test to fail.
2419 2010-04-17 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2421 Fixed typo in POD documentation of Automake::Channels.
2422 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Fixed typo in POD documentation:
2423 @<...> was used instead of C<...>.
2425 2010-04-14 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2427 Refactor tests on Automake TESTS color output.
2428 * tests/color.test: Tests using the expect program moved out to...
2429 * tests/color2.test: ... this new file.
2430 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Extended accordingly.
2432 2010-04-12 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2434 Fix typos in comments in test confh5.test
2435 * tests/confh5.test: Fix a couple of typos in comments.
2437 Avoid possible false negatives in canon-name.test.
2438 * tests/canon-name.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag. Improve
2441 2010-04-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2443 Fix per-Makefile.am setting of -Werror.
2444 Before this patch, 'AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = -Werror' in one
2445 Makefile.am would carry over to other Makefile.am files
2446 treated afterwards by the same thread, causing inconsistent
2447 and unstable exit status values.
2448 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (dup_channel_setup)
2449 (drop_channel_setup): Save and restore the setting of
2450 $warnings_are_errors.
2451 * tests/werror3.test: New test.
2452 * tests/Makefile.am: Adjust.
2455 2010-04-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2457 Bugfix in confh5.test w.r.t. Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
2458 * tests/confh5.test: In the generated Makefile.am: do not use
2459 `test ! -e FILE' to check for the non-existence of a file, since
2460 that is not supported by Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
2462 Make test `aclocal3.test' stricter.
2463 * tests/aclocal3.test: Add call to `set -e'. Fail if $ACLOCAL
2464 succeds unexpectedly.
2466 Add tests checking that symlinks are resolved by `make dist'.
2467 * tests/distlinks.test: New test.
2468 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
2469 Suggested by observations from Ralf Wildenhues.

2480 Avoid an unportable use of `$status' shell variable.
2481 * Makefile.am (path-check): Don't use the `$status' shell variable
2482 in the target's rules, as it's special in Zsh (equivalent to `$?',
2485 Avoid another use of `chmod -R'.
2486 * Makefile.am (path-check): To be safe, do not use `chmod -R' on
2487 $(distdir) before removing it (as Solaris `chmod -R' touches
2488 symlink targets). Instead, use the cleanup strategy used in
2491 2010-03-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2493 Remove uses of @acronym and @sc.
