+ command is always displayed.
+
+ Make tests on user extensibility of silent-rules mode stricter.
+ * tests/silent6.test: Made stricter w.r.t. the grepping of the

+ * tests/silent7.test: Likewise.
+
+ Tests on silent-mode for C/Libtool made stricter.

+ command to keep it better in sync with tests/silent{4,9}.test.
+
+ Improved test silent5.test.
+ * tests/silent5.test: Remove by hand all generated C files after
+ non-verbose builds, to ensure the following builds are clean.
+ Try to clean and rebuild with the same verbosity and without
+ removing generated sources in between, to check that this does
+ not trigger a different set of rules. Make grepping of make's
+ output stricter. Improved/added some comments.
+
+ New tests for Automake silent-mode with Fortran.
+ * tests/silentf77.test: New test.
+ * tests/silentf90.test: Likewise.

+
+ Relax tests on silent-rules to cater to overly verbose makes.
+ * tests/silent.test: When testing silent builds, don't fail if

+
+ Make gnupload portable to EBCDIC hosts.

+ * THANKS: Update.
+ Report from Eric Blake and Steve Goetze via gnulib.
+
+2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Fix Autoconf version required by Automake's configure.
+ Automake configure script used to tell that automake required
+ autoconf 2.60 or later, but then it checked for autoconf >= 2.62,
+ and if that was not found, it gave an error saying that Automake
+ required configure 2.61a-341 or later. This change should
+ eliminate such inconsistencies.
+ * configure.ac ($required_autoconf_version): New variable.
+ Use it throughout.

+
+ Wildcards are not portable to NetBSD make.
+ * doc/automake.texi (Wildcards): Document portability issue.
+ * tests/extra10.test, tests/extra11.test, tests/extra12.test:
+ Require GNU make.
+
+2010-05-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Make test for configure.in vs. configure.ac stricter.
+ * tests/configure.test: Use a configure.in file that provokes
+ an automake error, to ensure configure.ac is preferred.
+
+ Avoid possible false negatives in dejagnu7.test.
+ * tests/dejagnu7.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag. Also, avoid
+ unportable use of fgrep option `-e'.
+
+ * tests/conflnk3.test: Use `test -r FILE' and `test ! -r FILE'
+ instead of respectively `test -e FILE' and `test ! -e FILE',
+ since Solaris Sh doesn't grok the latter. Do not SKIP the test
+ if the shell doesn't support `test -e'.
+
+2010-04-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ Warning and error message formatting cleanups.
+ * aclocal.in (parse_arguments, main): Remove trailing period or

+
+ Minor improvements in comments of test `silent3.test'.
+ * tests/silent3.test: Tell to keep it in sync with `silent9.test'
+ too.
+
+2010-04-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ testsuite: ensure verbose printing of captured output.
+ * tests/acloca14.test, tests/acloca18.test, tests/aclocal.test,
+ tests/fort2.test, tests/help.test, tests/missing3.test,
+ tests/missing6.test: Print captured stdout or stderr before
+ grepping it.
+
+2010-04-20 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Make test badopt.test stricter (by enabling `set -e').
+ * tests/badopt.test: Add call to `set -e'. Due to this change,
+ an unexpected failure in the call to `$ACLOCAL' (whose outcome
+ was previously unchecked) would cause the whole test to fail.
+ Also, bumped the copyright years.
+
+ Make test for configure.in vs. configure.ac stricter.
+ * tests/configure.test: Use a configure.in file that provokes
+ an automake error, to ensure configure.ac is preferred.
+
+ Use `set -e' in confsub.test (avoids possible false negatives).
+ * tests/confsub.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag, and related
+ changes (this helps avoiding some possible minor false negatives).
+ Also, bumped copyright years.
+
+2010-04-20 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ Fix -Werror handling for presence of configure.in and configure.ac.
+ * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (Automake::Variable): Do not initialize
+ $configure_ac at the global level, before command-line arguments
+ have been parsed.
+ (require_variables): Initialize it here.
+ * tests/configure.test: New test.
+ * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
+ Report by Stefano Lattarini.
+
+2010-04-20 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Avoid possible false negatives in confh5.test.
+ * tests/confh5.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag, and bumped
+ copyright years. Due to this change, any unexpected failure
+ in calls to $ACLOCAL, $AUTOMAKE, $AUTOCONF or $AUTOHEADER, or
+ a failure in grepping expected text in output files should now
+ cause the whole test to fail.
+
+2010-04-17 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Fixed typo in POD documentation of Automake::Channels.
+ * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Fixed typo in POD documentation:
+ @<...> was used instead of C<...>.
+
+2010-04-14 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Refactor tests on Automake TESTS color output.
+ * tests/color.test: Tests using the expect program moved out to...

+2010-04-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ Print 'warnings are treated as errors' note if needed.

+ * tests/location.test: Adjust expected output with -Werror.
+ * tests/werror4.test: New test.
+ * tests/Makefile.am: Update.
+ * NEWS: Update.
+
+ Ensure we don't print 'warning:' or 'error:' twice.
+ * Makefile.am (sc_ensure_testsuite_has_run): New helper rule.
+ (sc_tests_logs_duplicate_prefixes): New rule, to check for
+ wrong-looking warning and error messages in the test suite logs.
+ * aclocal.in (scan_configure_dep, scan_file): Remove duplicate
+ `warning: ' prefix.
+ * tests/vars3.test: Rename variable to avoid false positive.
+
+ Prepend type to warning, error, and fatal messages.
+ For the first part of messages of types `error' or `fatal',
+ prepend `error: ' to the message. Prepend `warning: ' to
+ warning messages, whatever the setting of -Werror.
+ * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (partial): Move up definition.
+ (_format_message): Emit `header' and `footer' strings only with
+ the first resp. last part of a set of partial messages.
+ * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Add missing '1;' statement at the
+ end of the module.

+ error messages.
+ * tests/comment5.test: Likewise. Also, include stack notes
+ should not start with `error:'.
+ * tests/location.test: Likewise. Also, try both -Werror and
+ -Wno-error.
+ * NEWS: Update.
+ Report by Bruno Haible.
+
+ Fix capitalization of error messages, reword one message.
+ * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (define): Do not capitalize the first
+ word in the error message.
+ * automake.in (require_file_internal): Likewise. Also, reword
+ and line-wrap for better readability.
+ * tests/distcom7.test, tests/pluseq5.test, tests/pluseq9.test:
+ Adjust tests.
+
+ Fix connected warnings about obsolete exeext override.
+ * lib/Automake/Rule.pm (define): Merge two warnings that belong
+ together, by setting the 'partial' flag for the first one.
+
+ Fix per-Makefile.am setting of -Werror.
+ Before this patch, 'AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = -Werror' in one
+ Makefile.am would carry over to other Makefile.am files
+ treated afterwards by the same thread, causing inconsistent
+ and unstable exit status values.
+ * lib/Automake/Channels.pm (dup_channel_setup)
+ (drop_channel_setup): Save and restore the setting of
+ $warnings_are_errors.
+ * tests/werror3.test: New test.

+
+ Bugfix in confh5.test w.r.t. Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
+ * tests/confh5.test: In the generated Makefile.am: do not use

+ that is not supported by Solaris/Heirloom Sh.
+
+ Make test `aclocal3.test' stricter.
+ * tests/aclocal3.test: Add call to `set -e'. Fail if $ACLOCAL
+ succeds unexpectedly.
+
+ Add tests checking that symlinks are resolved by `make dist'.
+ * tests/distlinks.test: New test.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated accordingly.
+ Suggested by observations from Ralf Wildenhues.
+
+2010-04-11 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
+
+ Use -9 for maximum xz compression with dist-xz.
+ * lib/am/distdir.am (dist-xz, dist, dist-all): Pass -9 to xz.

+
+2010-04-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
+
+ Avoid possible false negatives in cond46.test.
+ * tests/cond46.test: Enable shell `errexit' flag (and bumped
+ copyright years). Due to this change, the testcase should now
+ fail on unexpected failures in calls to $ACLOCAL/$AUTOMAKE (whose
+ outcomes were previously unchecked), and on failures in grepping
+ the expected diagnostic in Automake stderr.
