1 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
3 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
4 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
6 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
8 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
9 suggested by Eric Blake.
11 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
13 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
14 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
17 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
19 * ChangeLog.03, automake.in, tests/overrid.test: Typos.
21 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
23 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
25 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
27 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh
29 * m4/install-sh.m4: Add $(SHELL) to the definition of install_sh
31 2005-09-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
33 * doc/automake.texi (limitations on file names): New section.
34 * lib/install-sh: Rewrite to support '*' in file names.
35 Also, tune so that we don't invoke so many commands in the usual case.
36 * tests/instspc.test: The "*" test is now fixed.
38 2005-09-13 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
40 * automake.in (Languages) <cppasm>: Fix typo in the comment.
42 2005-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
44 * lib/am/ltlib.am (uninstall-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Do not put
45 shell in verbose mode.
47 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
49 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
50 value of a conditionally defined variable.
51 Report from Juergen Leising.
53 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
55 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
57 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.
58 * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%CONFIG_H%): Likewise.
59 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
60 Report from Stepan Kasal.
62 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
63 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
65 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
67 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if
68 the $(infodir) exists.
70 2005-07-31 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
72 * tests/library3.test: Fix a typo which made the test fail.
74 2005-07-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
76 * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables):
77 Suggest reserving -l for third-party libraries.
79 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's
80 search path when suggesting to add a macro in configure.ac.
81 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
82 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
83 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
84 for missing files that can be installed.
85 * tests/library3.test: Adjust.
87 2005-07-27 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

94 * tests/colon3.test: s/EGREP/FGREP/.
96 2005-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
98 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
99 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
100 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
101 if the usual candidates show up.
103 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
105 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.
107 2005-07-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
109 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
112 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
114 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
115 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
117 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
119 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
120 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
122 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
124 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
125 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
128 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
130 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
131 fix an underful hbox.
132 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
133 New upstream versions.
135 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
137 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
139 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
141 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
142 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
143 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
144 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
145 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
147 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
149 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
150 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
151 Report from Harald Dunkel.
153 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
155 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
156 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
157 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
158 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
160 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
162 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
163 `mkdir -p' does not work.
164 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
165 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
166 Report from Noah Friedman.
168 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
169 Report from Karl Berry.
171 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
172 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
174 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
175 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
176 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
178 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
180 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
181 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
182 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
183 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
184 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
185 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
186 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
187 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
188 Report from Ed Hartnett.
190 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
192 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
194 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
195 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
196 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
197 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
198 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
200 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
202 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
203 Fix redirections in previous patch.
205 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
207 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
208 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
209 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
210 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
211 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
212 Report from Bob Proulx.
214 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
216 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
218 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
220 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
223 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
224 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
225 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
226 Report from Tom Tromey.

886 * automake.in (Preprocessed Fortran): Fix the definition of FCLINK.
888 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Refine check for @_ in scalar
889 context. Check for correct use of PRE_INSTALL, NORMAL_INSTALL,

897 directory while uninstalling DJGPP-style info files.
899 2004-12-27 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
901 Declare recursive install targets as dependencies of `.MAKE', so
902 that `make -n install' works with BSD Make too.
904 * lib/Automake/Rule.pm (reset) <%dependencies>: Add `.MAKE'.
905 * automake.in (target_cmp): Move all `.XYZ' target last, not
907 (handle_factored_dependencies): Add target with hooks to `.MAKE'.
908 Do not let a user definition of .MAKE override ours.
909 * lib/am/install.am (install-am, install-strip): Mark as `.MAKE'.

931 * doc/automake.texi: Correct several misuses of @xref and @pxref.
933 2004-12-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
935 * install-sh: Use `(exit N); exit N', not `(exit N); exit'.
936 Otherwise, install-sh could exit with improper exit status when
937 exiting via a trapped interrupt. Thanks to a report from Bob Proulx.
939 2004-12-14 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
941 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Englishoes.
942 (Options): And another.

986 reset_dir_cache): New functions.
987 * automake.in (handle_dist, require_file_internal): Use them, so

989 case-preserving file systems.
990 * tests/hfs.test: New file.
991 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hfs.test.
993 2004-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
995 * lib/mdate-sh: Don't use "set - x`$ls_command /`", as zsh mishandles
996 the spaces inside $ls_command. Problem reported by Loulou Pouchet in
997 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2004-12/msg00074.html>.
998 Don't use "set - x"; plain "set x" is enough, and simplifies debugging.
1000 2004-12-05 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio@tiki-lounge.com>
1002 * lib/py-compile: Add --destdir switch to py-compile that takes a
1003 path argument that is not compiled into the file when byte compiling.
1004 * lib/am/python.am: Use the new py-compile arguments to not include
1005 DESTDIR in the byte compiled files.
1006 * tests/python12.test: Test that DESTDIR won't be byte compiled into
1009 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1011 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Typo.
1013 * doc/automake.texi: Use @acindex for Autoconf macros, and @vindex
1014 for variables (@cvindex was previously used for both). Separate
1015 these two indices in the output. Use @code, @file, and @command
1016 in @cindex lines wherever appropriate so they render nicely.
1018 2004-12-05 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1020 * doc/automake.texi (renamed objects, CVS): Typos.
1022 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1024 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering): New section.
1025 (User Variables, Program and Library Variables): @xref it.
1027 2004-11-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1029 * doc/automake.texi (Conditional Subdirectories): More comments
1030 about non-distributed subdirectories.

1038 2004-11-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1040 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Diagnose abbreviation ambiguous with

1056 Report from Eric Blake.
1058 * lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
1059 /dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
1060 input without supporting --help and --version.
1061 * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
1062 * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.
1063 Report and fix from James Youngman.
1065 2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1067 * aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
1068 (%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
1069 function that uses it.
1071 * aclocal.in (version): Remove initial blank line and reproduce
1072 the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
1074 * aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.
1075 (scan_m4_dirs): New function, extracted from ...
1076 (scan_m4_files): ... here. Call scan_m4_files three times, for each
1078 (scan_file): Take a file type argument to update %file_type.
1079 (write_aclocal): Do not m4_include files that are not of type FT_USER.

1083 * tests/defs.in (testaclocaldir): New variable.
1084 * tests/aclocal.test: Use it to fix the test. Report from
1087 2004-11-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1089 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
1090 AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
1091 is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
1092 passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
1093 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
1094 so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
1095 * tests/python11.test: New file.
1096 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
1098 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
1099 should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
1101 2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1103 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
1104 * tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
1106 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default
1107 $(datadir)/aclocal. Report from Akim.
1109 2004-11-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1114 ($default_acdir, $default_dirlist): Remove.
1115 (parse_arguments): Populate @user_includes, @automake_includes, and

1117 ("MAIN"): Adjust to scan m4 files in @user_includes,
1118 @automake_includes, and @system_includes.
1120 2004-11-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1122 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correct comment. From Akim.
1124 2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1126 * aclocal.in: Use Automake::ChannelDefs, and adjust all output
1127 to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
1128 (version): New function.
1129 (parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
1130 honor -W and --warning.
1132 (trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
1133 for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
1134 unexpected newlines in the output.
1135 * doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
1136 * tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl
1137 warnings about uninitialized variables.
1139 2004-11-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1141 * tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
1142 VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.
1144 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Make sure $map_traced_defs{$m} exists
1145 before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
1146 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1148 2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1150 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
1151 before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
1152 concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
1153 Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
1155 * aclocal.in: Use strict and -w. Declare local variables with `my',
1156 and get rid of `local'.
1157 (scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
1160 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1162 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
1163 from Ralf Wildenhues.
1165 2004-10-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1167 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Augment with an example setup.
1168 (LTLIBOBJ): Rename as ...
1169 (LTLIBOBJS): ... this. Link to LIBOBJS, and mention LTALLOCA.
1171 2004-10-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1173 * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
1175 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1177 * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
1179 2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1181 * tests/distcom3.test: Typo.
1183 2004-10-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1185 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
1186 to force the linker selection.
1188 * lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
1189 slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'. This
1190 caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
1191 * tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
1192 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1194 2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1196 * automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
1197 by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the
1198 target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
1199 prepend $U to the given extension.
1200 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
1201 the extension to use. This way Automake won't mistake a program
1202 named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
1203 * tests/primary3.test: New file.
1204 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
1206 2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1208 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Link to node Extending for examples.
1209 (Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
1210 install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
1212 * configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
1213 * tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
1214 so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
1215 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
1216 to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
1217 AUTOCONF. This fixes two spurious failures reported by
1220 * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
1221 * tests/compile.test: Check for this.
1223 2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1225 * doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
1227 2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)

1238 2004-10-10 Martin Waitz <tali@admingilde.org> (tiny change)
1240 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): Check dependency tracking mode for CCAS.
1241 * automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
1242 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
1243 preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
1245 2004-10-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
1247 * automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into
1248 separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
1249 of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
1250 (handle_languages): Fix typo.
1251 (lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
1253 2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1255 * tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
1257 2004-09-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1259 * automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
1260 Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
1261 --mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
1262 (define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
1264 * tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated. That
1265 was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
1266 compiler to get dependencies from.
1267 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1269 2004-09-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1271 * configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
1272 * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
1273 lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
1274 and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
1275 * aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
1276 (scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
1278 * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
1279 two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
1280 like `echo $val | ...`.
1281 * tests/README: Suggest this.
1282 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
1284 2004-09-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1286 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Document -local targets.
1288 2004-09-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1290 * doc/automake.texi: Typos.
1292 2004-09-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1311 for their comments on a preliminary version of this, Akim for
1312 digging out some old mails, and Jason Molenda for sending the note
1313 about Automake in Alias to Tom.
1314 (Releases): Rename `ac' to `acl', suggested by Akim.

1325 * doc/automake.texi (Dependencies): Link to Dependency Tracking
1327 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Link to GNU make, Sources (for
1328 BUILT_SOURCES), and update the paragraph about the "plan" to
1329 inline dependency tracking with gcc3.
1331 * doc/automake.texi (History): New node.
1332 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): New node, filled with a Texinfo
1333 version of Tom Tromey's ``Dependency Tracking in Automake''
1334 document, initially published on the Automake homepage on
1337 2004-09-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1339 * m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Make sure AC_PROG_CC is never
1340 called after this macro.

1342 tests/subobj.test, tests/subobj4.test, tests/subobj5.test,
1343 tests/subobj6.test: Adjust.
1344 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1346 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (_print_message): Handle uniq_part with
1348 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Set uniq_part so that the
1349 AM_PROG_CC_C_O diagnostic is output only once for subdir objects
1350 and only once for objects with per-target flags.
1352 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Print files and locations
1353 for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
1354 (handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can
1357 * lib/compile, lib/elisp-comp, lib/install-sh, lib/ylwrap: Use $ret
1358 instead of $status which is read-only in Zsh.
1360 2004-09-10 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1361 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1363 * lib/compile: Preserve spaces in arguments (for example
1364 -DPACKAGE_STRING="foo 0.1").
1365 * tests/compile.test: New file.
1366 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add compile.test.
1368 2004-09-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1370 * automake.in (handle_clean): Sort rm commands output for
1371 mostlyclean-generic, clean-generic, distclean-generic, and
1372 maintainer-clean-generic.
1373 Report from Bob Friesenhahn.
1375 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Do not require AM_PROG_CC_C_O for
1377 (handle_single_transform): Pass nonansi_obj to &$subr so
1378 lang_c_rewrite can distinguish libtool objects.
1379 * tests/libtool7.test: Use subdir-objects without using AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1380 Report from Gary V. Vaughan and Patrick Welche.
1382 2004-09-07 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>

1391 2004-09-07 Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>
1393 * missing: Handle all command line options together. Add a
1394 separate case statement to detect failed runs, and fail
1395 silently there if --help or --version is passed to the program.
1397 2004-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1401 For PR automake/433:
1402 * configure.ac (pkgvdatadir): Define using "$PACKAGE", not "automake".
1404 Fix PR automake/432:
1405 * lib/am/yacc.am [!%?MORE-THAN-ONE%]: Replace `#line's in y.tab.h too.

1410 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (new): Precompute 'string' and 'conds'
1411 in place instead of as a side-effect of calling ->string and ->conds.
1412 This saves method-lookup time, simplify ->string and ->conds, and
1413 allows to create the object only when necessary.
1414 (string, conds): Simplify, now that the result is precomputed.
1416 * automake.in (%am_file_cache): New hash.
1417 (make_paragraphs): Cache .am files with comments stripped to save
1418 some useless input and substitutions.

1432 2004-08-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1434 Speed up make_paragraphs.
1435 * automake.in (handle_languages): Always define SUBDIROBJ,
1436 DERIVED-EXT, and DIST_SOURCE, because the new transform() will
1437 abort on unknown tokens.
1438 (transform): Rewrite with different semantics.
1439 (make_paragraphs): Make a single pass over the paragraph to
1440 transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as
1443 * automake.in ($libtool_new_api): New variable.
1444 (handle_libtool): Do not libtool's aux files if $libtool_new_api.
1445 (scan_autoconf_traces) <LT_SUPPORTED_TAG>: Set $libtool_new_api.

1452 * automake.in (%required_aux_file): New hash.
1453 (handle_single_transform, lang_c_rewrite): Do not explicitly
1454 require 'compile', this is now an internal detail of
1456 (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE and fill
1458 (scan_autoconf_files): Require all %required_aux_file instead
1459 of explicitly requiring install-sh and missing.
1460 (generate_makefile): Do not require config.sub and config.guess.
1461 (handle_single_transform): Pass $have_per_exec_flags to
1463 * configure.ac, m4/init.m4: Require Autoconf 2.59a.
1464 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Document AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1465 (Program and Library Variables, Options, Public macros):
1466 AM_PROG_CC_C_O is required when per-target flags or subdir-objects
1467 are used with C sources.
1468 * m4/minuso.m4: Require `compile' using AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1469 * m4/missing.m4: Require `missing' similarly.
1470 * tests/acsubst2.test, tests/distcom2.test, tests/distcom6.test,
1471 tests/specflg.test, tests/specflg2.test, tests/specflg3.test,
1472 tests/specflg6.test, tests/specflg7.test, tests/specflg8.test,
1473 tests/specflg9.test, tests/subobj7.test, tests/target-cflags.test,
1474 tests/yacc6.test: Fix to use AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1476 2004-08-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1478 * automake.in (yacc_lex_finish_helper): Fix definition of YLWRAP
1479 when ylwrap is installed in a default aux dir found in a parent
1481 * tests/subpkg.test: Augment to check that YLWRAP is installed
1483 * doc/automake.texi (Yacc and Lex): ylwrap is not sought is the
1485 Report from Norman Gray.
1487 2004-08-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1489 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Update documentation for
1490 AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, and AC_CANONICAL_TARGET.
1492 * automake.in (AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM): Replace by ...
1493 (AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_CANONICAL_TARGET): ... these.
1494 (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan for the latter three macros instead of
1496 (make_paragraphs): Adjust definitions of %BUILD%, %HOST%, and %TARGET%.
1497 * tests/hosts.test: New file.
1498 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hosts.test.
1499 Report and test case from Norman Gray.
1501 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1503 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Update "#Extending%20aclocal" URL, makeinfo
1504 4.7 now outputs "#Extending-aclocal".
1506 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1507 Derek R. Price <derek@ximbiot.com>
1509 Disable Lex and Yacc rules whenever possible if AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
1510 is used and maintainer-mode disabled.
1511 * automake.in (Automake::struct): Define nodist_specific.
1512 Set it in languages yacc, yaccxx, lex, and lexxx.
1513 (register_language): Default nodist_specific to 0.
1514 (handle_single_transform): Honor nodist_specific.
1515 * lib/am/yacc.am (am__skipyacc): Define this in maintainer mode.
1516 (%EXT%%DERIVED-EXT%, %OBJ%): Use $(am__skipyacc) to disable these

1529 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.9a.
1531 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.9.
1533 * automake.in (generate_makefile): Update misleading comment about
1536 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1538 2004-07-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1540 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p
1541 definition, it causes `make install' to fails for user with no
1542 right to write in the source-tree.
1543 * automake.in (handle_configure): Do not use mkdir_p in the
1544 definition for $(mkdir_p).
1545 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1547 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Typo in comment.
1549 2004-07-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1551 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Typo in example.
1552 Report from Ulrich Eckhardt.

1556 * automake.in (check_directory): Quote $dir in regexp.
1558 2004-07-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1560 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8e.
1562 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8d.
1564 * lib/config-ml.in, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex:
1565 New upstream versions.
1567 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1568 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
1570 * tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
1571 since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
1573 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
1574 that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
1575 reading the generated Makefiles.
1576 * automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
1578 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1579 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
1580 on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
1581 time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
1582 * tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
1583 reported by Akim Demaille.
1585 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...
1586 (Directories): ... this, and split into ...
1587 (Subdirectories, Conditional Subdirectories): ... these.
1588 (Subdirectories): Illustrate the use of `.'.
1589 (Conditional Subdirectories): Describe SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS
1590 before the example. Append a discussion about non-configured

1593 (Subpackages): New section.
1594 (Dist): Adjust links to Subdirectories, a Subpackages.

1599 * automake.in (target_hook): Accept %transform as last argument.
1600 (handle_single_transform): Pass %transform to target_hook.
1601 (handle_source_transform): Define DIST_SOURCE to tell whether
1602 a the source of a file is distributed or not.
1603 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Check DIST_SOURCE, and do not distribute
1604 the generated header if the .y source is not distributed.
1605 * tests/pr204.test: Use AM_YFLAGS = -d and make sure generated
1606 headers are not distributed.
1608 2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)
1610 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Improve ustar file name length
1611 discussion. Reference tar manual.
1613 2004-07-12 Ray Simard <rhs.techlists@sylvan-glade.com> (tiny change)
1615 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Fix precondition check.
1617 2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1619 For PR automake/428:
1620 Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
1621 * automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
1622 (handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
1623 handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
1624 adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
1625 it is always defined an phony.
1626 * tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
1627 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1628 Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
1630 2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1632 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
1633 /tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
1634 * lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
1635 has been moribund for a decade.
1636 Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
1637 -c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
1638 compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
1639 Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
1640 Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
1641 * tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
1642 moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
1644 2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1646 For Debian Bug#254372:
1647 * doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
1648 explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
1650 2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1652 For Debian Bug #251820:
1653 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
1654 file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
1655 Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
1656 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
1657 * tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
1659 2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1661 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
1662 so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
1663 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1665 2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1667 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
1668 bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
1669 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1671 2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1673 * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
1674 `-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
1675 * tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
1676 depmod=gcc otherwise.
1677 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1679 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
1680 `rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
1681 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1683 2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1685 * NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
1687 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1689 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
1690 of $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
1691 and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
1692 Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
1693 "files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.
1694 Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
1696 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
1697 nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
1699 (Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
1700 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1702 2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1704 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
1706 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
1708 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
1709 by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
1711 * tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
1713 * lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
1714 multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
1715 by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
1717 2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1719 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
1720 instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
1722 * tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
1723 Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
1725 * tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
1727 * NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
1729 * automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
1730 non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
1731 is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
1732 (handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
1733 library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.
1734 * tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
1737 Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
1738 to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
1739 restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
1741 * automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
1742 handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
1743 (check_directories_in_var): New function.
1744 (handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
1745 suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
1746 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
1747 to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
1748 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
1749 cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
1750 (Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
1751 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1752 undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
1753 skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
1754 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
1755 top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
1756 `..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
1757 * tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
1758 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
1759 * tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
1762 2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
1764 * tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
1765 cygwin compatibility.
1766 * tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
1768 * tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
1769 a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
1771 2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1773 * m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
1774 * tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
1776 * tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
1777 contains the macro name.
1778 Report from Volker Boerchers.
1780 2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1782 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1784 2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1786 * automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
1787 the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
1788 * tests/clean2.test: New file.
1789 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
1790 Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
1792 * aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
1793 macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
1794 already diagnoses them.
1795 (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1797 * tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
1798 warning instead of an error.
1799 * tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
1800 macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.
1801 * tests/acloca17.test: New file.
1802 * tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
1803 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
1804 Report from Jim Meyering.
1806 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1807 Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
1808 Suggested by Karl Berry.
1810 * automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
1811 diagnostics when no input file is found.
1812 * tests/output5.test: Adjust.
1813 Suggested by Jens Petersen.
1815 2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1817 * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
1818 * automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
1819 output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.
1820 * tests/ar2.test: New file.
1821 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1822 Report from Kevin Ryde.
1824 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1826 * automake.in (generate_makefile): Do not output Makefile.in on
1828 * tests/werror2.test: New file.
1829 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
1830 * tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
1831 Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
1832 in spite of the error.
1833 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1835 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
1836 doubled word in footnote.
1838 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
1839 $(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
1840 Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
1841 * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
1842 $(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
1844 2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1846 * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
1847 uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
1848 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
1849 * lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
1850 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
1852 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1854 * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
1855 Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
1856 parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
1857 references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
1858 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1860 2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1862 * tests/defs.in (GNUmake): Grep for GNU to parry FreeBSD make.
1863 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1865 2004-04-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1867 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1869 * lib/depcomp (tru64): Clarify comments. Thanks to Nicolas Joly.
1871 * doc/automake.texi (Headers): Revamp.
1873 2004-04-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1875 * automake.in (check_typos): Clarify the diagnostic.
1876 * tests/warnopts.test: Adjust.
1878 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Turn VAR_ASIS variables into
1879 VAR_PRETTY variables to work around make implementation with
1880 limited line length, such as OSF1/Tru64 make.
1881 * tests/longline.test: New file.
1882 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1883 * tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
1884 Report from Simon Josefsson.
1886 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
1887 --etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it

2378 2004-01-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2380 * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Do not compare $outfile to ''
2381 as $outfile might not be defined at all.
2383 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Rework the way we check
2384 Automake variable definition. Ensure consistent :=/+=/=
2385 definitions only for variables that have been and are defined by
2386 Automake, and make it an internal error. Ignore Automake
2387 attempts to touch a user variable, even with += assignments.
2388 * tests/txinfo29.test: New file.
2389 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo29.test.
2390 Reported by Bruce Korb.
2392 2004-01-02 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
2394 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Don't generate dist
2395 variables when no-dist is set.
2396 (generate_makefile): Likewise.
2397 * tests/nodist3.test: Ensure that DIST_SOURCES is not created,
2398 and that dist target does not exist.
2399 Reported by Tom Fitzsimmons.
2401 2004-01-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2403 * tests/libtool5.test, tests/ltcond.test, tests/ltcond2.test,
2404 * tests/ltconv.test: Run automake with --add-missing, because
2405 the CVS version of libtoolize no longer install config.sub and
2406 config.guess by default.
2408 Fix for PR automake/319:
2409 * aclocal.in (scan_m4_files): Scan configure.ac.
2410 (trace_used_macros, write_aclocal): Remove configure.ac from the
2411 list of files to include.
2412 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca15.test.
2413 * tests/acloca15.test: New file.
2415 * aclocal.in (%file_includes): New variable.
2416 (scan_configure_dep): Compile $m4_include_rx and $ac_require_rx once.
2417 (scan_file): Scan for included files, and process these files
2418 recursively. Fill %file_includes and %file_contents. Return the
2419 list of included files, not the contents.
2420 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_files.
2421 (strip_redundant_includes): New function.
2422 (trace_used_macros): Call it.
2423 (write_aclocal): Likewise. Also check the mtime of included files.
2424 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca14.test.
2425 * tests/acloca14.test: New file.
2426 Report from Phil Edwards.
2428 2004-01-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2430 * automake.in (handle_languages): Do not define DEP_FILES.
2431 * m4/depout.m4 (_AM_OUTPUT_DEPENDENCY_COMMANDS): Extract included
2432 files with $(DEPDIR) in their name instead of DEP_FILES.
2433 * tests/depend.test, tests/depend4.test, tests/exsource.test:
2435 Suggested by Tom Tromey.
2437 Do not output .lo rules for programs and static libraries objects,
2438 and do not output .o/.obj rules for libtool libraries. This is
2439 about explicit rules only, not inference rules.
2440 * automake.in (handle_single_transform_list): Rename as ...
2441 (handle_single_transform): ... this. Take a single file
2442 to transform (it was only called this way) and accept a new
2443 %transform argument. Fill %lang_specific_files with list
2444 references instead of strings, and append %transform to each
2446 (define_objects_from_sources, handle_source_transform):
2447 Take a %transform argument, and forward it to &handle_single_transform.
2448 (handle_languages): Adjust to the new format of
2449 %lang_specific_files, and honor its %transform part.
2450 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Override
2451 %NONLIBTOOL% and %LIBTOOL% while calling handle_source_transform.
2452 (make_paragraphs): Define %NONLIBTOOL% by default. Make sure
2453 %transform settings override global settings.
2454 * lib/am/depend2.am (%OBJ%, %OBJOBJ%): Define only if %NONLIBTOOL%.
2455 * tests/libtool3.test: Augment to check Makefile.ins for unneeded
2457 Suggested by Thomas Fitzsimmons.
2459 * automake.in, aclocal.in: Bump copyright years.
