3 * lib/install-sh: Use IFS=/ to split directories on /, don't translate
4 / into % as it prevents directory names using %...
6 2005-07-09 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
8 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros): Typo.
9 * aclocal.in: Typo in comment.
11 2005-07-09 Zack Weinberg <zack@codesourcery.com> (tiny change)
13 * lib/depcomp: Handle "#line" markers as well as "# " markers in
14 "cpp" style, so it can work with newer HP compilers (for their
17 2005-07-02 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
19 * doc/automake.texi (Public macros) <AM_WITH_DMALLOC>: Reword to
21 * lib/INSTALL, lib/config.guess, lib/config.sub, lib/texinfo.tex:
24 2005-07-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
26 * m4/python.m4 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Add python2.5.
28 2005-06-30 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
30 * automake.in (make_paragraphs): Do not define %TOPDIR%, now that
31 lib/am/header-vars.am no longer uses it.
32 * lib/am/libtool.am (distclean-am, distclean-libtool): Define
33 if TOPDIR_P is true, not TOPDIR.
34 Suggested by Stepan Kasal.
36 * automake.in (read_am_file): Correctly diagnose comments following
38 * tests/commen10.test: New file.
39 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add commen10.test.
40 Report from Harald Dunkel.
42 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Scan AC_SUBST_TRACE instead
44 * lib/am/header-vars.am (srcdir, top_srcdir, top_builddir, INSTALL):
45 Do not define, they are AC_SUBST_TRACEd by Autoconf.
46 * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf 2.59c.
47 * tests/include.test: Call AC_OUTPUT.
49 2005-06-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
51 * lib/mkinstalldirs: Fix support for directory name with spaces if
52 `mkdir -p' does not work.
53 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mkinst3.test.
54 * tests/mkinst3.test: New file.
55 Report from Noah Friedman.
57 * doc/automake.texi (Include, Extending aclocal): Typos.
58 Report from Karl Berry.
60 2005-06-28 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
61 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
63 * lib/mdate-sh: Avoid infinite loop with GNU ls when TIME_STYLE is set.
64 * tests/txinfo28.test: Set TIME_STYLE.
65 Report from Vincent Lefevre and James Youngman.
67 2005-06-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
69 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define, _new): Remember the helper
70 variable created for the last conditional += on each variable, and
71 only append further += in the same condition to this last helper
72 variable, not to older helper variables. This way the order of
73 the items appended to the variable is preserved.
74 * tests/cond21.test: Adjust.
75 * tests/cond38.test: New file.
76 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cond38.test.
77 Report from Ed Hartnett.
79 2005-06-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
81 * tests/aclocal5.test: Adjust to recent CVS Autoconf changes.
83 * automake.in (handle_footer): Do not output an unformatted
84 definition of SOURCES, it is already done correctly in
85 generate_makefile. This superfluous definition introduced long
86 lines in some Makefiles, hence breakages in tools with a limited
87 line length. Report from Mathias Froehlich.
89 2005-06-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
91 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
92 Fix redirections in previous patch.
94 2005-06-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
96 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC_INFO?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
97 Do not backup any file if makeinfo is not installed.
98 * lib/missing (makeinfo): Do not touch a missing info file.
99 * tests/txinfo30.test: New file.
100 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add txinfo30.test.
101 Report from Bob Proulx.
103 * doc/automake.texi (Extending aclocal): Typo.
105 2005-05-24 Brian Gough <bjg@network-theory.co.uk> (tiny change)
107 * lib/am/texinfos.am (.dvi.ps): Add $(am__TEXINFO_TEX_DIR) to TEXINPUTS.
109 2005-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
112 * automake.in (require_build_directory): Canonicalize directories
113 with different names, such as `foo/bar' and `./foo//bar'.
114 * tests/subobj9.test: Augment to test that.
115 Report from Tom Tromey.

876 * automake.in (handle_dist, require_file_internal): Use them, so
877 that CHANGELOG is not confused with ChangeLog on case-insensitive
878 case-preserving file systems.
879 * tests/hfs.test: New file.
880 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hfs.test.
882 2004-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
884 * lib/mdate-sh: Don't use "set - x`$ls_command /`", as zsh mishandles
885 the spaces inside $ls_command. Problem reported by Loulou Pouchet in
886 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2004-12/msg00074.html>.
887 Don't use "set - x"; plain "set x" is enough, and simplifies debugging.
889 2004-12-05 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio@tiki-lounge.com>
891 * lib/py-compile: Add --destdir switch to py-compile that takes a
892 path argument that is not compiled into the file when byte compiling.
893 * lib/am/python.am: Use the new py-compile arguments to not include
894 DESTDIR in the byte compiled files.
895 * tests/python12.test: Test that DESTDIR won't be byte compiled into
898 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
900 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Typo.
902 * doc/automake.texi: Use @acindex for Autoconf macros, and @vindex
903 for variables (@cvindex was previously used for both). Separate
904 these two indices in the output. Use @code, @file, and @command
905 in @cindex lines wherever appropriate so they render nicely.
907 2004-12-05 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
909 * doc/automake.texi (renamed objects, CVS): Typos.
911 2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
913 * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering): New section.
914 (User Variables, Program and Library Variables): @xref it.

943 * tests/postprog.test: Use `--' for fun.
944 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add automake.test.
945 Report from Eric Blake.
947 * lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
948 /dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
949 input without supporting --help and --version.
950 * lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.
951 * tests/gnits2.test: Change scriptnok.sh to cat its input.
952 Report and fix from James Youngman.
954 2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
956 * aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
957 (%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
958 function that uses it.
960 * aclocal.in (version): Remove initial blank line and reproduce
961 the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
963 * aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.
964 (scan_m4_dirs): New function, extracted from ...
965 (scan_m4_files): ... here. Call scan_m4_files three times, for each

973 * tests/aclocal.test: Use it to fix the test. Report from
976 2004-11-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
978 * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
979 AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
980 is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
981 passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
982 (_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
983 so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
984 * tests/python11.test: New file.
985 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
987 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
988 should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
990 2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
992 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
993 * tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
995 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default
996 $(datadir)/aclocal. Report from Akim.
998 2004-11-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1000 * aclocal.in ($acdir): Rename as ...

1003 ($default_acdir, $default_dirlist): Remove.
1004 (parse_arguments): Populate @user_includes, @automake_includes, and
1005 @system_includes instead of filling a unique @dirlist array.
1006 ("MAIN"): Adjust to scan m4 files in @user_includes,
1007 @automake_includes, and @system_includes.
1009 2004-11-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1011 * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correct comment. From Akim.
1013 2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1015 * aclocal.in: Use Automake::ChannelDefs, and adjust all output
1016 to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
1017 (version): New function.
1018 (parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
1019 honor -W and --warning.
1021 (trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
1022 for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
1023 unexpected newlines in the output.
1024 * doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
1025 * tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl
1026 warnings about uninitialized variables.
1028 2004-11-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1030 * tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
1031 VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.
1033 * aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Make sure $map_traced_defs{$m} exists
1034 before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
1035 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1037 2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1039 * lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
1040 before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
1041 concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
1042 Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
1044 * aclocal.in: Use strict and -w. Declare local variables with `my',
1045 and get rid of `local'.
1046 (scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
1049 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
1051 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
1052 from Ralf Wildenhues.
1054 2004-10-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1056 * doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Augment with an example setup.
1057 (LTLIBOBJ): Rename as ...
1058 (LTLIBOBJS): ... this. Link to LIBOBJS, and mention LTALLOCA.
1060 2004-10-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1062 * doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
1064 * Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
1066 * tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
1068 2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1070 * tests/distcom3.test: Typo.
1072 2004-10-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1074 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
1075 to force the linker selection.
1077 * lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
1078 slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'. This
1079 caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
1080 * tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
1081 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1083 2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1085 * automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
1086 by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the
1087 target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
1088 prepend $U to the given extension.
1089 (handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
1090 the extension to use. This way Automake won't mistake a program
1091 named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
1092 * tests/primary3.test: New file.
1093 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
1095 2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1097 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Link to node Extending for examples.
1098 (Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
1099 install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
1101 * configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
1102 * tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
1103 so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
1104 * tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
1105 to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
1106 AUTOCONF. This fixes two spurious failures reported by
1109 * lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
1110 * tests/compile.test: Check for this.
1112 2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1114 * doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
1116 2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)

1130 * automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
1131 * doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
1132 preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
1134 2004-10-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
1136 * automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into
1137 separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
1138 of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
1139 (handle_languages): Fix typo.
1140 (lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
1142 2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1144 * tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
1146 2004-09-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1148 * automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
1149 Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
1150 --mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
1151 (define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
1153 * tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated. That
1154 was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
1155 compiler to get dependencies from.
1156 Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
1158 2004-09-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1160 * configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
1161 * lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
1162 lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
1163 and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
1164 * aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
1165 (scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
1167 * tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
1168 two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
1169 like `echo $val | ...`.
1170 * tests/README: Suggest this.
1171 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
1173 2004-09-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1175 * doc/automake.texi (Clean): Document -local targets.

1214 * doc/automake.texi (Dependencies): Link to Dependency Tracking
1216 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): Link to GNU make, Sources (for
1217 BUILT_SOURCES), and update the paragraph about the "plan" to
1218 inline dependency tracking with gcc3.
1220 * doc/automake.texi (History): New node.
1221 (Dependency Tracking Evolution): New node, filled with a Texinfo
1222 version of Tom Tromey's ``Dependency Tracking in Automake''

1233 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1235 * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (_print_message): Handle uniq_part with
1237 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Set uniq_part so that the
1238 AM_PROG_CC_C_O diagnostic is output only once for subdir objects
1239 and only once for objects with per-target flags.
1241 * automake.in (lang_c_rewrite): Print files and locations
1242 for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
1243 (handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can
1246 * lib/compile, lib/elisp-comp, lib/install-sh, lib/ylwrap: Use $ret
1247 instead of $status which is read-only in Zsh.

1280 2004-09-07 Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org>
1282 * missing: Handle all command line options together. Add a
1283 separate case statement to detect failed runs, and fail
1284 silently there if --help or --version is passed to the program.
1286 2004-08-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1288 * lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.

1299 * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (new): Precompute 'string' and 'conds'
1300 in place instead of as a side-effect of calling ->string and ->conds.
1301 This saves method-lookup time, simplify ->string and ->conds, and
1302 allows to create the object only when necessary.
1303 (string, conds): Simplify, now that the result is precomputed.
1305 * automake.in (%am_file_cache): New hash.
1306 (make_paragraphs): Cache .am files with comments stripped to save

1323 Speed up make_paragraphs.
1324 * automake.in (handle_languages): Always define SUBDIROBJ,
1325 DERIVED-EXT, and DIST_SOURCE, because the new transform() will
1326 abort on unknown tokens.
1327 (transform): Rewrite with different semantics.
1328 (make_paragraphs): Make a single pass over the paragraph to
1329 transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as

1341 * automake.in (%required_aux_file): New hash.
1342 (handle_single_transform, lang_c_rewrite): Do not explicitly
1343 require 'compile', this is now an internal detail of

1353 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Document AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1354 (Program and Library Variables, Options, Public macros):
1355 AM_PROG_CC_C_O is required when per-target flags or subdir-objects
1356 are used with C sources.
1357 * m4/minuso.m4: Require `compile' using AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE.
1358 * m4/missing.m4: Require `missing' similarly.
1359 * tests/acsubst2.test, tests/distcom2.test, tests/distcom6.test,
1360 tests/specflg.test, tests/specflg2.test, tests/specflg3.test,
1361 tests/specflg6.test, tests/specflg7.test, tests/specflg8.test,
1362 tests/specflg9.test, tests/subobj7.test, tests/target-cflags.test,
1363 tests/yacc6.test: Fix to use AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
1365 2004-08-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1367 * automake.in (yacc_lex_finish_helper): Fix definition of YLWRAP

1378 * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Update documentation for
1379 AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, AC_CANONICAL_HOST, and AC_CANONICAL_TARGET.

1392 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Update "#Extending%20aclocal" URL, makeinfo
1393 4.7 now outputs "#Extending-aclocal".
1395 2004-08-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1396 Derek R. Price <derek@ximbiot.com>
1398 Disable Lex and Yacc rules whenever possible if AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
1399 is used and maintainer-mode disabled.
1400 * automake.in (Automake::struct): Define nodist_specific.
1401 Set it in languages yacc, yaccxx, lex, and lexxx.
1402 (register_language): Default nodist_specific to 0.
1403 (handle_single_transform): Honor nodist_specific.
1404 * lib/am/yacc.am (am__skipyacc): Define this in maintainer mode.

1407 * lib/am/lex.am (am__skiplex): Define this in maintainer mode.
1408 (%EXT%%DERIVED-EXT%, %OBJ%): Use $(am__skiplex) to disable these
1410 * tests/mmodely.test: New file.
1411 * tests/pr204.test: Augment to check AM_MAINTAINER_MODE and nodist_
1413 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): ADd mmodely.test.
1414 * doc/automake.texi (Yacc and Lex): Note dependence on maintainer mode.
1416 2004-07-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1418 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.9a.
1420 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.9.
1422 * automake.in (generate_makefile): Update misleading comment about
1425 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1427 2004-07-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1429 * m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p
1430 definition, it causes `make install' to fails for user with no
1431 right to write in the source-tree.
1432 * automake.in (handle_configure): Do not use mkdir_p in the
1433 definition for $(mkdir_p).
1434 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1436 * lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Typo in comment.
1438 2004-07-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1440 * doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Typo in example.
1441 Report from Ulrich Eckhardt.

1445 * automake.in (check_directory): Quote $dir in regexp.
1447 2004-07-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1449 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8e.
1451 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8d.
1453 * lib/config-ml.in, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex:
1454 New upstream versions.
1456 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1457 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
1459 * tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
1460 since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
1462 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
1463 that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
1464 reading the generated Makefiles.
1465 * automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
1467 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
1468 ?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
1469 on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
1470 time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
1471 * tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
1472 reported by Akim Demaille.
1474 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...
1475 (Directories): ... this, and split into ...
1476 (Subdirectories, Conditional Subdirectories): ... these.
1477 (Subdirectories): Illustrate the use of `.'.
1478 (Conditional Subdirectories): Describe SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS
1479 before the example. Append a discussion about non-configured
1480 conditional directories.
1481 (Alternative): Move as a child of Directories.
1482 (Subpackages): New section.
1483 (Dist): Adjust links to Subdirectories, a Subpackages.
1484 (Third-Party Makefiles): Link to Conditional Subdirectories.
1486 2004-07-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1488 * automake.in (target_hook): Accept %transform as last argument.
1489 (handle_single_transform): Pass %transform to target_hook.
1490 (handle_source_transform): Define DIST_SOURCE to tell whether
1491 a the source of a file is distributed or not.
1492 (lang_yacc_target_hook): Check DIST_SOURCE, and do not distribute
1493 the generated header if the .y source is not distributed.
1494 * tests/pr204.test: Use AM_YFLAGS = -d and make sure generated
1495 headers are not distributed.
1497 2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)
1499 * doc/automake.texi (Options): Improve ustar file name length
1500 discussion. Reference tar manual.
1502 2004-07-12 Ray Simard <rhs.techlists@sylvan-glade.com> (tiny change)
1504 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Fix precondition check.
1506 2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1508 For PR automake/428:
1509 Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
1510 * automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
1511 (handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
1512 handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
1513 adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
1514 it is always defined an phony.
1515 * tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
1516 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
1517 Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
1519 2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1521 * doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
1522 /tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
1523 * lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
1524 has been moribund for a decade.
1525 Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
1526 -c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
1527 compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
1528 Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
1529 Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
1530 * tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
1531 moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
1533 2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1535 For Debian Bug#254372:
1536 * doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
1537 explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
1539 2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1541 For Debian Bug #251820:
1542 * aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
1543 file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
1544 Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
1545 (scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
1546 * tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
1548 2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1550 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
1551 so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
1552 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1554 2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1556 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
1557 bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
1558 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1560 2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1562 * tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
1563 `-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
1564 * tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
1565 depmod=gcc otherwise.
1566 Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
1568 * lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
1569 `rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
1570 Report from Nicolas Joly.
1572 2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1574 * NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
1576 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1578 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
1579 of $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
1580 and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
1581 Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
1582 "files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.
1583 Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
1585 * doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
1586 nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
1588 (Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
1589 Suggested by Akim Demaille.
1591 2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1593 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
1595 * configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
1597 * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
1598 by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
1600 * tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
1602 * lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
1603 multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
1604 by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
1606 2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1608 * automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
1609 instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
1611 * tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
1612 Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
1614 * tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
1616 * NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
1618 * automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
1619 non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
1620 is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
1621 (handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
1622 library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.
1623 * tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
1626 Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
1627 to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
1628 restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
1630 * automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
1631 handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
1632 (check_directories_in_var): New function.
1633 (handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
1634 suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
1635 (scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
1636 to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
1637 * doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
1638 cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
1639 (Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
1640 * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
1641 undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
1642 skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
1643 * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
1644 top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
1645 `..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
1646 * tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
1647 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
1648 * tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
1651 2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
1653 * tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
1654 cygwin compatibility.
1655 * tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
1657 * tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
1658 a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
1660 2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1662 * m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
1663 * tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
1665 * tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
1666 contains the macro name.
1667 Report from Volker Boerchers.
1669 2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1671 * lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
1673 2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1675 * automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
1676 the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
1677 * tests/clean2.test: New file.
1678 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
1679 Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
1681 * aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
1682 macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
1683 already diagnoses them.
1684 (scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
1686 * tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
1687 warning instead of an error.
1688 * tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
1689 macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.
1690 * tests/acloca17.test: New file.
1691 * tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
1692 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
1693 Report from Jim Meyering.
1695 * lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
1696 Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
1697 Suggested by Karl Berry.
1699 * automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
1700 diagnostics when no input file is found.
1701 * tests/output5.test: Adjust.
1702 Suggested by Jens Petersen.
1704 2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1706 * lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
1707 * automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
1708 output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.
1709 * tests/ar2.test: New file.
1710 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1711 Report from Kevin Ryde.
1713 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1715 * automake.in (generate_makefile): Do not output Makefile.in on
1717 * tests/werror2.test: New file.
1718 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
1719 * tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
1720 Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
1721 in spite of the error.
1722 Report from Harlan Stenn.
1724 * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
1725 doubled word in footnote.
1727 * automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
1728 $(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
1729 Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
1730 * tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
1731 $(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
1733 2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1735 * Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
1736 uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
1737 * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
1738 * lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
1739 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
1741 2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1743 * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
1744 Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
1745 parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
1746 references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
1747 Report from Mark D. Baushke.
1749 2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
1751 * tests/defs.in (GNUmake): Grep for GNU to parry FreeBSD make.
1752 Report from Mark D. Baushke.

1764 * automake.in (check_typos): Clarify the diagnostic.
1765 * tests/warnopts.test: Adjust.
1767 * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Turn VAR_ASIS variables into
1768 VAR_PRETTY variables to work around make implementation with
1769 limited line length, such as OSF1/Tru64 make.
1770 * tests/longline.test: New file.
1771 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
1772 * tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
1773 Report from Simon Josefsson.
1775 * lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
1776 --etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it
1777 creates the TAGS file anyway.
1778 Report from Akim Demaille.
1780 * lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Nicolas Joly reported on
1781 2002-06-12 that dependencies were output in $dir.libs/$base.lo.d.
1782 Teun Burgers reported on 2004-03-30 they were in
1783 $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Try both.

1850 ($automake_will_process_aux_dir): New variable.
1851 (scan_autoconf_traces): Reorder @input_files so that the Makefile
1852 that distributes aux files is processed last. This way we do not
1853 have to process all files twice using
1854 $automake_will_process_aux_dir.
1855 (require_file_internal): Suggest a full run of automake when

1912 2004-04-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
1914 * lib/install-sh: If "mv -f" works, use it, and fall back to
1915 the old "test -f" + "rm -f" + "mv" method only if "mv -f" does
1916 not work. This improves performance in the usual case where
1917 "mv -f" works. It also lets us install the "mv" command
1918 without worrying about a small window where "mv" does not

1975 Reported by Mark Phillips.
1977 * automake.in (lang_yacc_target_hook): Use Automake::Rule::define

2074 (Extending): Make it a subsection of Not Enough.
2076 * lib/gnupload (GPG): Use an absolute path. Suggestion from Gary

2103 2004-01-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
2105 * tests/lex5.test: Sleep before calling AUTOMAKE the second time,
