32 2006-01-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

35 sed scripts, as Posix says it's not portable.

78 2006-01-05 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
79 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
81 * lib/depcomp: Add 'ia64hp' dependency style.
82 Zack's original patch was contributed to GCC on 2005-06-13.
85 2005-11-01 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
87 * lib/install-sh: Use "trap '' 0" instead of "trap - 0", so that
88 the code is portable to both POSIX and pre-POSIX shells.
90 2005-10-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
92 * tests/nobase.test: Use `chmod a-x' instead of `chmod -x',
93 suggested by Eric Blake.
95 2005-10-17 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
97 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Typo.
98 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (transform_variable_recursively): Typo
101 2005-10-03 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>

105 2005-10-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
107 * tests/nobase.test: Exercise previous patch.
109 2005-10-03 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com> (tiny change)
111 * lib/am/distdir.am: Remove $(SHELL) when calling install_sh

129 shell in verbose mode.
131 2005-08-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
133 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (variable_value): Do not read the TRUE
134 value of a conditionally defined variable.
135 Report from Juergen Leising.
137 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use AM_MAKEFLAGS in recursive
139 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
141 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Likewise.

143 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Check for this.
144 Report from Stepan Kasal.
146 * m4/mkdirp.m4: Update misleading comment about `mkdir -p .'.
147 Prompted by Stepan Kasal.
149 2005-08-07 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
151 * lib/am/texinfos.am (uninstall-info-am): Call install-info only if

163 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (require_variables): Mention aclocal's

165 People are confused when Automake suggests adding a macro (such as
166 AC_PROG_LIBTOOL) that is already in configure.ac.
167 * automake.in (require_file_internal): Suggest `automake --add-missing'
168 for missing files that can be installed.

182 * tests/instspc.test: Major rewrite to test for many other
183 problematic file names, e.g., '$', '"', '('. Automake and
184 Autoconf can't handle many of them, so do not report a failure
185 if the usual candidates show up.
187 2005-07-19 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
189 * Makefile.am (automake, aclocal): Merge the rules.

199 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
201 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
203 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
204 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.

208 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
209 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
212 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
214 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
215 fix an underful hbox.
216 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
217 New upstream versions.
219 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
221 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
223 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
225 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
226 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
227 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
228 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
229 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
231 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
233 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
234 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
235 Report from Harald Dunkel.
237 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
239 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
240 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
241 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
242 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
244 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
246 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
247 `mkdir -p' does not work.
248 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
249 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
250 Report from Noah Friedman.
252 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
253 Report from Karl Berry.
255 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
256 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
258 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
259 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
260 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
262 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
264 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
265 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
266 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
267 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
268 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
269 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
270 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
271 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
272 Report from Ed Hartnett.
274 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
276 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
278 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
279 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
280 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
281 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
282 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
284 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
286 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
287 Fix redirections in previous patch.
289 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

292 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
293 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
294 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
295 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
296 Report from Bob Proulx.
298 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
300 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
302 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
304 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
307 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
308 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
309 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
310 Report from Tom Tromey.
