3 * lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream
6 2005-07-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
8 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
9 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
11 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
13 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
14 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
16 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
18 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
19 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
22 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
24 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
26 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
27 New upstream versions.
29 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
31 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
33 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
35 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
36 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
37 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
38 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
39 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
41 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
43 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
44 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
45 Report from Harald Dunkel.
47 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
49 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
50 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
51 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
52 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
54 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
56 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
57 `mkdir -p' does not work.
58 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
59 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
60 Report from Noah Friedman.
62 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
63 Report from Karl Berry.
65 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
66 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
68 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
69 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
70 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
72 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
74 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
75 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
76 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
77 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
78 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
79 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
80 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
81 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
82 Report from Ed Hartnett.
84 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
86 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
88 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
89 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
90 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
91 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
92 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
94 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
96 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):

99 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
101 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
102 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
103 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
104 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
105 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
106 Report from Bob Proulx.
108 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
110 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
112 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
114 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
117 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
118 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
119 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
120 Report from Tom Tromey.

880 reset_dir_cache): New functions.
881 * automake.in (handle_dist, require_file_internal): Use them, so
882 that CHANGELOG is not confused with ChangeLog on case-insensitive
883 case-preserving file systems.
884 * tests/hfs.test: New file.
885 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hfs.test.
887 2004-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
889 * lib/mdate-sh: Don't use "set - x`$ls_command /`", as zsh mishandles
890 the spaces inside $ls_command. Problem reported by Loulou Pouchet in
891 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2004-12/msg00074.html>.
892 Don't use "set - x"; plain "set x" is enough, and simplifies debugging.
894 2004-12-05 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio@tiki-lounge.com>
896 * lib/py-compile: Add --destdir switch to py-compile that takes a
897 path argument that is not compiled into the file when byte compiling.
898 * lib/am/python.am: Use the new py-compile arguments to not include
899 DESTDIR in the byte compiled files.
900 * tests/python12.test: Test that DESTDIR won't be byte compiled into
903 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
905 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Typo.
907 * doc/automake.texi: Use @acindex for Autoconf macros, and @vindex
908 for variables (@cvindex was previously used for both). Separate
909 these two indices in the output. Use @code, @file, and @command
910 in @cindex lines wherever appropriate so they render nicely.
912 2004-12-05 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
914 * doc/automake.texi (renamed objects, CVS): Typos.
916 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
918 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering): New section.
919 (User Variables, Program and Library Variables): @xref it.
921 2004-11-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

948 * tests/postprog.test: Use `--' for fun.
949 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add automake.test.
950 Report from Eric Blake.
952 * lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
953 /dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
954 input without supporting --help and --version.
955 * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
956 * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.
957 Report and fix from James Youngman.
959 2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
961 * aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
962 (%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
963 function that uses it.
965 * aclocal.in (version): Remove initial blank line and reproduce
966 the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
968 * aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.
969 (scan_m4_dirs): New function, extracted from ...
970 (scan_m4_files): ... here. Call scan_m4_files three times, for each
972 (scan_file): Take a file type argument to update %file_type.
973 (write_aclocal): Do not m4_include files that are not of type FT_USER.
974 * tests/dirlist.test: Make sure m4_include is not used for --acdir
977 * tests/defs.in (testaclocaldir): New variable.
978 * tests/aclocal.test: Use it to fix the test. Report from
981 2004-11-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
983 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
984 AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
985 is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
986 passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
987 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
988 so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
989 * tests/python11.test: New file.
990 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
992 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
993 should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
995 2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
997 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
998 * tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
1000 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default
1001 $(datadir)/aclocal. Report from Akim.
1003 2004-11-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1005 * aclocal.in ($acdir): Rename as ...

1008 ($default_acdir, $default_dirlist): Remove.
1009 (parse_arguments): Populate @user_includes, @automake_includes, and
1010 @system_includes instead of filling a unique @dirlist array.
1011 ("MAIN"): Adjust to scan m4 files in @user_includes,
1012 @automake_includes, and @system_includes.
1014 2004-11-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1016 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correct comment. From Akim.
1018 2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1020 * aclocal.in: Use Automake::ChannelDefs, and adjust all output
1021 to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
1022 (version): New function.
1023 (parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
1024 honor -W and --warning.
1026 (trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
1027 for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
1028 unexpected newlines in the output.
1029 * doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
1030 * tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl
1031 warnings about uninitialized variables.
1033 2004-11-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1035 * tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
1036 VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.
1038 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Make sure $map_traced_defs{$m} exists
1039 before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
1040 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1042 2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1044 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
1045 before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
1046 concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
1047 Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
1049 * aclocal.in: Use strict and -w. Declare local variables with `my',
1050 and get rid of `local'.
1051 (scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
1054 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1056 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
1057 from Ralf Wildenhues.
1059 2004-10-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1061 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Augment with an example setup.
1062 (LTLIBOBJ): Rename as ...
1063 (LTLIBOBJS): ... this. Link to LIBOBJS, and mention LTALLOCA.
1065 2004-10-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1067 * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
1069 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1071 * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
1073 2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1075 * tests/distcom3.test: Typo.
1077 2004-10-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1079 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
1080 to force the linker selection.
1082 * lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
1083 slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'. This
1084 caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
1085 * tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
1086 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1088 2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1090 * automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
1091 by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the
1092 target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
1093 prepend $U to the given extension.
1094 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
1095 the extension to use. This way Automake won't mistake a program
1096 named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
1097 * tests/primary3.test: New file.
1098 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
1100 2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1102 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Link to node Extending for examples.
1103 (Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
1104 install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
1106 * configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
1107 * tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
1108 so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
1109 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
1110 to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
1111 AUTOCONF. This fixes two spurious failures reported by
1114 * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
1115 * tests/compile.test: Check for this.
1117 2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1119 * doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
1121 2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)

1132 2004-10-10 Martin Waitz <tali@admingilde.org> (tiny change)
1134 * m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): Check dependency tracking mode for CCAS.
1135 * automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
1136 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
1137 preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
1139 2004-10-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
1141 * automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into
1142 separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
1143 of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
1144 (handle_languages): Fix typo.
1145 (lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
1147 2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1149 * tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
1151 2004-09-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1153 * automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
1154 Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
1155 --mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
1156 (define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
1158 * tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated. That
1159 was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
1160 compiler to get dependencies from.
1161 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1163 2004-09-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1165 * configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
1166 * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
1167 lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
1168 and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
1169 * aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
1170 (scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
1172 * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
1173 two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
1174 like `echo $val | ...`.
1175 * tests/README: Suggest this.
1176 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
1178 2004-09-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1180 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Document -local targets.

1219 * doc/automake.texi (Dependencies): Link to Dependency Tracking
1221 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Link to GNU make, Sources (for
1222 BUILT_SOURCES), and update the paragraph about the "plan" to
1223 inline dependency tracking with gcc3.
1225 * doc/automake.texi (History): New node.
1226 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): New node, filled with a Texinfo

1238 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1240 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (_print_message): Handle uniq_part with
1242 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Set uniq_part so that the
1243 AM_PROG_CC_C_O diagnostic is output only once for subdir objects
1244 and only once for objects with per-target flags.
1246 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Print files and locations
1247 for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
1248 (handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can
1251 * lib/compile, lib/elisp-comp, lib/install-sh, lib/ylwrap: Use $ret
1252 instead of $status which is read-only in Zsh.

1285 2004-09-07 Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>
1287 * missing: Handle all command line options together. Add a
1288 separate case statement to detect failed runs, and fail
1289 silently there if --help or --version is passed to the program.
1291 2004-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1293 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.

1304 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (new): Precompute 'string' and 'conds'
1305 in place instead of as a side-effect of calling ->string and ->conds.
1306 This saves method-lookup time, simplify ->string and ->conds, and
1307 allows to create the object only when necessary.
1308 (string, conds): Simplify, now that the result is precomputed.
1310 * automake.in (%am_file_cache): New hash.
1311 (make_paragraphs): Cache .am files with comments stripped to save

1328 Speed up make_paragraphs.
1329 * automake.in (handle_languages): Always define SUBDIROBJ,
1330 DERIVED-EXT, and DIST_SOURCE, because the new transform() will
1331 abort on unknown tokens.
1332 (transform): Rewrite with different semantics.
1333 (make_paragraphs): Make a single pass over the paragraph to
1334 transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as

1345 Support AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE, and fix requirement of AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1346 * automake.in (%required_aux_file): New hash.
1347 (handle_single_transform, lang_c_rewrite): Do not explicitly
1348 require 'compile', this is now an internal detail of

1358 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Document AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1359 (Program and Library Variables, Options, Public macros):
1360 AM_PROG_CC_C_O is required when per-target flags or subdir-objects
1361 are used with C sources.
1362 * m4/minuso.m4: Require `compile' using AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1363 * m4/missing.m4: Require `missing' similarly.
1364 * tests/acsubst2.test, tests/distcom2.test, tests/distcom6.test,
1365 tests/specflg.test, tests/specflg2.test, tests/specflg3.test,
1366 tests/specflg6.test, tests/specflg7.test, tests/specflg8.test,
1367 tests/specflg9.test, tests/subobj7.test, tests/target-cflags.test,
1368 tests/yacc6.test: Fix to use AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1370 2004-08-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1372 * automake.in (yacc_lex_finish_helper): Fix definition of YLWRAP

1379 Report from Norman Gray.
1381 2004-08-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1383 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Update documentation for
1384 AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, and AC_CANONICAL_TARGET.
1386 * automake.in (AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM): Replace by ...
1387 (AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, AC_CANONICAL_TARGET): ... these.
1388 (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan for the latter three macros instead of
1390 (make_paragraphs): Adjust definitions of %BUILD%, %HOST%, and %TARGET%.

1392 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hosts.test.
1393 Report and test case from Norman Gray.
1395 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1397 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Update "#Extending%20aclocal" URL, makeinfo
1398 4.7 now outputs "#Extending-aclocal".
1400 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1401 Derek R. Price <derek@ximbiot.com>
1403 Disable Lex and Yacc rules whenever possible if AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
1404 is used and maintainer-mode disabled.
1405 * automake.in (Automake::struct): Define nodist_specific.
1406 Set it in languages yacc, yaccxx, lex, and lexxx.
1407 (register_language): Default nodist_specific to 0.
1408 (handle_single_transform): Honor nodist_specific.

1432 2004-07-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1434 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p
1435 definition, it causes `make install' to fails for user with no
1436 right to write in the source-tree.
1437 * automake.in (handle_configure): Do not use mkdir_p in the
1438 definition for $(mkdir_p).
1439 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1441 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Typo in comment.
1443 2004-07-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

1450 * automake.in (check_directory): Quote $dir in regexp.
1452 2004-07-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1454 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8e.
1456 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8d.
1458 * lib/config-ml.in, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex:
1459 New upstream versions.
1461 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1462 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
1464 * tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
1465 since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
1467 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
1468 that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
1469 reading the generated Makefiles.
1470 * automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
1472 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1473 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
1474 on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
1475 time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
1476 * tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
1477 reported by Akim Demaille.
1479 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...
1480 (Directories): ... this, and split into ...
1481 (Subdirectories, Conditional Subdirectories): ... these.
1482 (Subdirectories): Illustrate the use of `.'.
1483 (Conditional Subdirectories): Describe SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS
1484 before the example. Append a discussion about non-configured

1494 (handle_single_transform): Pass %transform to target_hook.
1495 (handle_source_transform): Define DIST_SOURCE to tell whether
1496 a the source of a file is distributed or not.
1497 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Check DIST_SOURCE, and do not distribute
1498 the generated header if the .y source is not distributed.
1499 * tests/pr204.test: Use AM_YFLAGS = -d and make sure generated
1500 headers are not distributed.
1502 2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)
1504 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Improve ustar file name length
1505 discussion. Reference tar manual.
1507 2004-07-12 Ray Simard <rhs.techlists@sylvan-glade.com> (tiny change)
1509 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Fix precondition check.
1511 2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1513 For PR automake/428:
1514 Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
1515 * automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
1516 (handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
1517 handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
1518 adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
1519 it is always defined an phony.
1520 * tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
1521 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1522 Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
1524 2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1526 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
1527 /tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
1528 * lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
1529 has been moribund for a decade.
1530 Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
1531 -c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
1532 compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
1533 Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
1534 Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
1535 * tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
1536 moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
1538 2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1540 For Debian Bug#254372:
1541 * doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
1542 explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
1544 2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1546 For Debian Bug #251820:
1547 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
1548 file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
1549 Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
1550 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
1551 * tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
1553 2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1555 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
1556 so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
1557 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1559 2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1561 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
1562 bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
1563 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1565 2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1567 * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
1568 `-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
1569 * tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
1570 depmod=gcc otherwise.
1571 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1573 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
1574 `rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
1575 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1577 2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1579 * NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
1581 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1583 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
1584 of $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
1585 and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
1586 Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
1587 "files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.
1588 Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
1590 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
1591 nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
1593 (Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
1594 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1596 2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1598 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
1600 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
1602 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
1603 by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
1605 * tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
1607 * lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
1608 multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
1609 by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
1611 2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1613 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
1614 instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
1616 * tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
1617 Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
1619 * tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
1621 * NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
1623 * automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
1624 non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
1625 is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
1626 (handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
1627 library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.
1628 * tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
1631 Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
1632 to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
1633 restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
1635 * automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
1636 handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
1637 (check_directories_in_var): New function.
1638 (handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
1639 suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
1640 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
1641 to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
1642 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
1643 cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
1644 (Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
1645 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1646 undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
1647 skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
1648 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
1649 top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
1650 `..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
1651 * tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
1652 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
1653 * tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
1656 2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
1658 * tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
1659 cygwin compatibility.
1660 * tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
1662 * tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
1663 a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
1665 2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1667 * m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
1668 * tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
1670 * tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
1671 contains the macro name.
1672 Report from Volker Boerchers.
1674 2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1676 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1678 2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1680 * automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
1681 the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
1682 * tests/clean2.test: New file.
1683 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
1684 Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
1686 * aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
1687 macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
1688 already diagnoses them.
1689 (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1691 * tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
1692 warning instead of an error.
1693 * tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
1694 macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.
1695 * tests/acloca17.test: New file.
1696 * tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
1697 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
1698 Report from Jim Meyering.
1700 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1701 Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
1702 Suggested by Karl Berry.
1704 * automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
1705 diagnostics when no input file is found.
1706 * tests/output5.test: Adjust.
1707 Suggested by Jens Petersen.
1709 2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1711 * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
1712 * automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
1713 output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.
1714 * tests/ar2.test: New file.
1715 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1716 Report from Kevin Ryde.
1718 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1720 * automake.in (generate_makefile): Do not output Makefile.in on
1722 * tests/werror2.test: New file.
1723 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
1724 * tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
1725 Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
1726 in spite of the error.
1727 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1729 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
1730 doubled word in footnote.
1732 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
1733 $(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
1734 Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
1735 * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
1736 $(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
1738 2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1740 * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
1741 uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
1742 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
1743 * lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
1744 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
1746 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1748 * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
1749 Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
1750 parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
1751 references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
1752 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1754 2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1756 * tests/defs.in (GNUmake): Grep for GNU to parry FreeBSD make.
1757 Report from Mark D. Baushke.

1770 * tests/warnopts.test: Adjust.
1772 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Turn VAR_ASIS variables into
1773 VAR_PRETTY variables to work around make implementation with
1774 limited line length, such as OSF1/Tru64 make.
1775 * tests/longline.test: New file.
1776 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1777 * tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
1778 Report from Simon Josefsson.
1780 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
1781 --etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it
1782 creates the TAGS file anyway.
1783 Report from Akim Demaille.
1785 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Nicolas Joly reported on
1786 2002-06-12 that dependencies were output in $dir.libs/$base.lo.d.
1787 Teun Burgers reported on 2004-03-30 they were in
1788 $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Try both.

1855 ($automake_will_process_aux_dir): New variable.
1856 (scan_autoconf_traces): Reorder @input_files so that the Makefile
1857 that distributes aux files is processed last. This way we do not
1858 have to process all files twice using
1859 $automake_will_process_aux_dir.

1920 the old "test -f" + "rm -f" + "mv" method only if "mv -f" does
1921 not work. This improves performance in the usual case where
1922 "mv -f" works. It also lets us install the "mv" command
