- automake: do not emit rule with two dependents
- On a system using our replacement alloca, make would emit
- this warning:
- target '.deps/alloca.Po' given more than once in the same rule
- That arose because automake would emit a rule depending on both
- ./.deps/alloca.Po and .deps/alloca.Po. Normally, duplicate
- dependents are avoided by virtue of their names being keys in
- the %dep_files hash, but in this case, that particular file
- was specified in two different ways.
- * bin/automake.in (handle_ALLOCA): When the $dir prefix is empty,
- make it './', to ensure that when we add ./.deps/alloca.Po
- it is deduped.

- dist: fix bug#18286 "distcheck fails to detect missing files"
- BTW, this issue had been already reported in the past:
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2006-09/msg00008.html
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2013-01/msg00049.html
- "make distcheck" could sometimes fail to detect missing files in the
- distribution tarball, especially in those cases where both the generated
- files and their dependencies are explicitly in $(srcdir). An important
- example of this are *generated* makefile fragments included at Automake
- time in Makefile.am. A basic example:
- # -*- Makefile.am -*-
- $(srcdir)/fragment.am: $(srcdir)/data.txt $(srcdir)/preproc.sh
- cd $(srcdir) && $(SHELL) preproc.sh <data.txt >fragment.am
- include $(srcdir)/fragment.am
- ...
- If the use forgot to add data.txt and/or preproc.sh in the distribution
- tarball, "make distcheck" would have erroneously succeeded!
- The reason is that, while $(srcdir)/data.txt does not exist, make also
- looks in $(srcdir)/$(srcdir)/data.txt, and in the distcheck-issued
- VPATH build where $(srcdir) is '..', that file exists, as it is
- part of the original development directory.
- * t/distdir.am (distcheck): Adjust to have the build directory be
- '$(distdir)/_build/sub' rather than just '$(distdir)/_build'. Thanks
- Nicola Fontana for the suggestion.
- * t/distcheck-pr18286.sh: Enhance and tighten a little.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 't/distcheck-pr18286.sh',

- include: fix bug in handling of user-defined makefile fragments generation
- If a user defined one single Makefile fragment to be included (via Automake

- * lib/am/configure.am (%MAKEFILE-IN-DEPS%) [?HAVE-MAKEFILE-IN-DEPS?]: Add

- When computing lispdir, don't load emacs site wide init file.
- When computing the lispdir emacs was previously invoked with the '-q'
- option to avoid loading the users initialisation files, however, the
- site wide initialisation file was still loaded, in some cases this can
- cause emacs to hang, with the result that a configure can also hang.
- The lisp code that aclocal causes to be executed reduces the load-path
- list (in emacs) to empty. The load-path is used by emacs to find
- packages which it wants to load. Currently, if emacs tries to auto
- load a package during shut down, and the package is not found, then
- emacs will hang. This does seem like an emacs bug, but protecting
- against this in aclocal is simply a case of not loading the site wide
- initialisation file.
- In this patch then the '-q' option to emacs is replaced with '-Q',
- this has the same, the '-Q' option is similar to '-q --no-site-file
- --no-splash'.

- Improve detection of GNU make, avoiding "Arg list too long" errors.
- Such errors could take place when the main makefile included too many
- sub-makefiles, making $(MAKEFILE_LIST) too long and causing the
- recipes $(am__is_gnu_make) to exceed the shell's command-line length
- limits. This is not a theoretical issue: it could happen for projects
- having lots of C/C++ sources and using automatic dependency tracking,
- which created an included .Po sub-makefile for each of such sources.

- automake: account for perl hash order randomization
- Try to explicitly order the keys of some perl hashes when looping
- on them to do sanity/correctness checks and possibly display warning
- messages; this should ensure a more reproducible output. Not really
- a big deal, but I prefer to keep the order of such output reproducible
- if possible.

- distcheck: don't allow overriding of --prefix and --srcdir by the user
- Not through AM_DISTCHECK_FLAGS, nor through DISTCHECK_FLAGS. Apparently,
- some packages got in the habit of relaying all the options passed to the
- original ./configure invocation through to the configure invocations
- in "make distcheck". This was causing problems, because it also passed
- through the original --srcdir and --prefix options.
- Fixes: expose bug#14991 (relates to 'distcheck')
- * lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Pass the hard-coded --srcdir and
- --prefix options *after* both the developer-defined options in
- $(AM_DISTCHECK_FLAGS) and the user-defined options in $(DISTCHECK_FLAGS).
- * t/list-of-tests.mk (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove the now-passing test

- tests: avoid a spurious failure on MacOS X 10.6.8
- Fixes automake bug#14706.
- * t/depcomp2.sh: Strip, from the redirected ./configure stderr, the
- possible error message "rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory", generated
- by cleanup code that doesn't cater to the existence of *.dSYM
- directories sometimes created by the compiler on MacOS X. This
- "massaging" of ./configure stderr is legitimate, since the spurious
- error message is due not to automake-related code, but to a know
- buglet/limitation of either Autoconf or Mac OS X bundles gcc:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2007-11/msg00017.html>
- Actually, from that link it appears that the original Autoconf issue
- had been fixed, but it must have been re-introduced in the meantime :-(
- 2013-06-27 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: don't risk hanging on the 'cl' requirement
- On the GNU/Linux boxes of some users that run our testsuite there
- is a '/usr/local/bin/cl' executable, from the IRAF package:
- <http://iraf.noao.edu/>
- The test 'compile4.sh' (and other tests) try to invoke the 'cl'
- command to check whether it's a Microsoft compiler; the IRAF cl
- is an interactive program, so it hangs on such invocation. In
- conclusion, the testsuite hangs for those users which have the
- IRAF cl early in PATH.
- Fix the issue by redirecting the input of cl from /dev/null when
- invoking it, which is enough to prevent the cl program from IRAF
- from hanging, and should have no effect on the behaviour of the
- Microsoft compiler.
- This change fixes automake bug#14707.
- * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (require_tool): Adjust the handling of
- the 'cl' requirement.

- 2013-06-12 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- lang, suffix rules: don't require C stuff needlessly

- include definition of some make variables related to C compilation in the

- * THANKS: Give credit to that bug's original reporter.
- * t/remake-configure-dependencies.sh: Add few missing '$sleep'
- invocations. I thought that the sleeps implicit in the configure
- invocation were enough, but they were not, actually. Here is what
- can happen:
- 1. The config.status script is generated by a configure run.
- 2. ./config.status and make are run.
- 3. The 'print-version' script is modified.
- 4. Since that script is listed in $(CONFIGURE_DEPENDENCIES),
- autoconf is re-run.
- 5. On a fast-enough machine, the three steps 2-4 above, even
- combined, might have taken less than a second to run;
- 6. If the filesystem doesn't have a sub-second timestamp
- resolution, that means the newly-generated configure has
- the same timestamp of the old config.status;
- 7. So, config.status is not re-run, and the Makefiles are
- not updated.
- 8. Spurious failure!
- So we really need more explicit sleeps.

- (t/silent-many-languages.sh) when mixing MSVC and GNU fortran, which
- have different default object file extensions (.obj vs. .o). This
- difference in object file extension is not handled well and caused

- AM_PROG_CC_C_O: don't rely on AC_PROG_CC_C_O, re-implement similar logic
- ** Theoretical problems of AC_PROG_CC_C_O:
- Both cc and $CC are checked to see if they support the '-c' and '-o'
- options together.
- This behaviour is highly inconsistent with that of the other macros
- related to C compiler checks -- which test only $CC.
- It can also cause unwarranted uses of the 'compile' script on systems
- where the default 'cc' is inferior, but the user is compiling with a
- proper, different compiler (e.g., gcc).
- ** Practical problems with our previous implementation of C support m4
- macros in Automake:
- - AM_PROG_AR must now be called *before* AC_PROG_CC; this wasn't the
- case before, and it turns out there are packages in the wild that
- relied on the old behaviour.
- - The cross-referenced requirements and macro rewrites juggled among
- AC_PROG_CC, AC_PROG_CC_C_O and AM_PROG_CC_C_O caused warnings in
- autoconf; for example, in our test 't/libobj3.sh', we could see
- warnings like these (here slightly tweaked for legibility):
- configure.ac:5: AC_REQUIRE: `AC_PROG_CC' expanded before required
- autoconf/c.m4:567: AC_PROG_CC_C_O is expanded from...
- autoconf/c.m4:429: AC_LANG_COMPILER(C) is expanded from...
- autoconf/lang.m4:329: AC_LANG_COMPILER_REQUIRE is expanded from...
- autoconf/general.m4:2606: AC_COMPILE_IFELSE is expanded from...
- m4sugar/m4sh.m4:639: AS_IF is expanded from...
- autoconf/general.m4:2031: AC_CACHE_VAL is expanded from...
- autoconf/general.m4:2052: AC_CACHE_CHECK is expanded from...
- aclocal.m4:70: AM_PROG_AR is expanded from...
- configure.ac:5: the top level
- ** Fix all of that:
- We fix all of the described issues with a new internal m4 macro
- _AM_PROG_CC_C_O (inspired to, but not based on, AC_PROG_CC_C_O) that
- gets tacked on to AC_PROG_CC automatically (this is done in the
- Automake-generated aclocal.m4) and that takes care of checking and
- adjusting '$CC' for "-c -o" support.
- The macro AM_PROG_CC_C_O is still present, but is now just a thin
- wrapper around such Automake-enhanced AC_PROG_CC.
- It is worth noting that the present patch causes three slight
- *backward-incompatibilities*:
- 1. The name cache variable used by AM_PROG_CC_C_O is no longer
- computed (at configure runtime!) from the content of '$CC',
- but is statically defined as 'am_cv_prog_cc_c_o'.
- 2. 'cc' is no longer checked by AM_PROG_CC_C_O, only '$CC' is.
- 3. AM_PROG_CC_C_O no longer AC_DEFINE the C preprocessor symbol
- 'NO_MINUS_C_MINUS_O'.
- Given however that the third change can easily be worked around, that
- the first two changes can be legitimately seen as bug fixes, and that
- the new semantics introduced by such changes will simplify the transition
- to Automake 2.0 (when the 'subdir-objects' will always be enabled
- unconditionally), we believe they are acceptable to be shipped with
- Automake 1.14.
- With this patch, we also revert some of the testsuite adjustments done
- in previous commit v1.13.2-178-g9877109 of 2013-05-24 (compile: rewrite
- AC_PROG_CC with AM_PROG_CC_C_O contents). Such adjustments are no longer
- needed.
- * m4/minuso.m4 (_AM_PROG_CC_C_O): New internal macro, basically and
- adjusted version of a merge between Autoconf-provided AC_PROG_CC_C_O
- and our old implementation of AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
- (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Redefine as a simple wrapper around AC_PROG_CC.
- * m4/init.m4 (AC_PROG_CC): Append _AM_PROG_CC_C_O, not AM_PROG_CC_C_O,
- to the pre-existing expansion of this macro.
- * m4/ar-lib.m4 (AM_PROG_AR): No longer require it to be expanded after
- AC_PROG_CC.

- used to).

- compile: rewrite AC_PROG_CC with AM_PROG_CC_C_O contents
- This is a much simpler rewrite than the one we attempted in the past,
- and that was later removed by commit 'v1.13.1d-137-g32eb770' of
- 2013-05-11 (compile: avoid AC_PROG_CC messy rewrite).
- Not only this change simplifies the code a little, but has the welcome
- collateral effect of making automatic dependency tracking work better
- with compilers that doesn't grasp the '-c' and '-o' options together.
- Issues in that setup have been caught by several failures in the target
- 'check-no-cc-c-o'.
- Unfortunately, this change has less welcome collateral effects:
- 1. AM_PROG_AR must now be called *after* AC_PROG_CC;
- 2. Autoconf emits extra warnings when used with Automake-generated
- aclocal.m4.
- These are unacceptable regressions for a release, but since we are
- going to fix them soon enough in a follow-up patch (surely to be
- applied before Automake 1.14 is released) we don't worry too much.
- * m4/init.m4: Redefine AC_PROG_CC early, to automatically invoke
- AM_PROG_CC_C_O as well. Accordingly, drop now-unneeded "automagical"
- AM_PROG_CC_C_O expansion at later time (which took place thanks to
- a AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE call).
- * m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Ensure the expansion of the body
- of this macro takes place with C as "current Autoconf language" (use
- AC_LANG_PUSH/AC_LANG_POP).
- * m4/ar-lib.m4 (AM_PROG_AR): Likewise. Also, require this macro to
- be expanded *after* AC_PROG_CC (so that any rewrite of $CC, if required,

- tests: use append mode to capture parallel make output
- This will allow us to run the Automake testsuite forcing all the make
- invocations in the test cases to run in parallel mode [1], but without
- hitting the spurious failure reported in automake bug#11413.
- See also:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2013-05/msg00135.html>
- The make invocations in the test cases can be forced to run in parallel
- mode by, e.g., invoking "make check" like this:
- make check AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE="make -j16"
- The possible spurious failures hinted above are due to the fact that
- the redirected output of parallel make can racily lose lines. For
- example, if GNU make (3.82) is run with -j10 on a Makefile like this:
- all = 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
- default: $(all)
- $(all):
- @sleep 0.$$(($RANDOM % 10)); echo $@
- and has its standard output redirected in overwrite-mode to a regular
- file, it looses a line of that output every 15 runs or so on a Fedora
- 17 system with 64 ppc64 cores. Redirection in append mode does not
- suffer of this problem, as explained here:

- tests: run_make: options to do command redirection
- Let's improve the API of the 'run_make()' helper shell function by
- adding three new options:
- -O Save the standard output from make on disk, in a regular file
- named 'stdout'.
- -E Save the standard error from make on disk, in a regular file
- named 'stderr'.
- -M Save both the standard output and standard error from make on
- disk, in a regular file named 'output'. This option supersedes
- both the '-O' and '-E' options.
- This new API has two main advantages.
- 1. Its use will allow us to get rid of more cumbersome idioms
- like, e.g.,
- $MAKE check >stdout && { cat stdout; exit 1; }
- cat stdout
- That can now be substituted with a simpler one:
- run_make -e FAIL -O check
- 2. More importantly, using the new API we will prevent any extra output
- from the shell traces of the code in run_make to be redirected along
- with the make stderr (where that was redirected). This problem was
- present in usages like, e.g.,
- run_make TESTS=foo.test check 2>stderr && exit 1
- grep 'expected error message' stderr
- Such usages are now to be rewritten as follows:
- run_make -e FAIL -E TESTS=foo.test check
- grep 'expected error message' stderr
- ensuring that 'stderr' won't end up containing unrelated stuff.
- Note that we do not convert in bulk the old idioms and the use of
- redirected 'run_make' invocations with this patch. We only convert
- some occurrences, to ensure that the new implementation of 'run_make'
- is sound enough. More sweeping conversions will likely be done in
- follow-up patches.

- tests: only activate 'unset' alias if required
- This makes the test logs easier to read for most shells (which do not
- actually require that alias). This is especially important now that
- 'unset' is used in the new 'run_make()' function, and that function is
- likely going to be used more and more in the future.
- * t/ax/test-lib.sh (_am_unset, unset): Only define this function and
- alias if "unset VAR" returns a non-zero exit status when VAR is already
- unset.
- 2013-05-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: better idiom to override make macro defs on the cmdline
- We now do so with a new wrapper shell function 'run_make()', which
- relies on the use of AM_MAKEFLAGS, avoiding the use of the '-e' make
- option. The use of that option (that causes the environment variables
- to take precedence over the macro definitions in the Makefile) has
- proved to be quite brittle in the past, causing annoying and sometimes
- problematic spurious failures. This has worsened in some still
- unpublished work going on in development branches. It's time to solve
- the issue once and for all.
- Note that we do not convert all uses of $MAKE in the testsuite right
- away; we might do so in follow-up changes, with leisure, to avoid a
- "patch bomb" effect (this commit is already too much of a bomb itself).
- What we do in this commit is to get rid of all "$MAKE -e" invocations.
- We admit that the implementation and feature-set of 'run_make()' are
- far from perfect, but good enough for our current purposes. We'll
- improve 'run_make()' if and when the need arises.
- * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_make_e): New syntax check, guard against
- the use of "$MAKE -e".
- (syntax_check_rules): Add it.
- (sc_tests_overriding_macros_on_cmdline): Adjust.
- (lint): New, alias for 'maintainer-check', for lazy typists. Idea
- backported from the 'maint' branch (Automake 1.13a).
- * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (run_make): New function. Run $MAKE with the
- given command-line arguments, handling command-line override of variable
- definitions in a smart way (using AM_MAKEFLAGS if a non-GNU make
- implementation is detected to be in use).
- (useless_vpath_rebuild): Adjust to use 'run_make', to avoid a spurious
- maintainer check failure.
- (yl_distcheck): Use 'run_make' rather than bare '$MAKE'.
- (single_quote, append_single_quoted, is_valid_varname): New auxiliary
- function, used, directly or indirectly, by it.
- * Many tests: Adjust to avoid the use of "$MAKE -e", and prefer the
- use of 'run_make' in few other contexts as well, where it makes sense.
- Other minor fixlets while at it.

- texi: build version.texi and stamp-vti in srcdir
- Do so even when the 'info-in-builddir' option is present, or when
- the corresponding '*.info' files are listed in $(CLEANFILES) or in
- $(DISTCLEANFILES).
- This fixes failures in the following tests, when they are run with
- $MAKE pointing to FreeBSD make:
- - txinfo-nodist-info.sh
- - txinfo23.sh
- - txinfo24.sh
- - txinfo28.sh
- - txinfo25.sh
- BTW, notice that the test 'txinfo-builddir.sh' fails with FreeBSD make
- as well, but that is due to a known FreeBSD make VPATH issue (the same
- described in automake bug#7884). But that is not a regression, since
- the 'info-in-builddir' option will be new in Automake 1.14. Moreover,
- we already warn in the manual that the use of that option can indeed
- cause problems with VPATH builds done by non-GNU make.
- * bin/automake.in (handle_texinfo_helper): New local variable

- lisp: fix a failure with Solaris /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
- * lib/am/lisp.am (.el.elc): By initializing the 'am__dir' properly
- here. For most shells, the lacking initialization, while technically
- incorrect, didn't cause any issue in practice, because in those shells
- "test -d" returns an exit status of 0. But with /usr/xpg4/bin/sh, the
- shell complains like this: "test: argument expected", and returns a
- non-zero exit status. This caused testsuite failures in several lisp
- tests.
- Also, while we are at it, use more proper quoting in the recipe, to
- ensure a missing initialization to now be caught by more forgiving
- shells as well.
- * NEWS: Update.
- 2013-05-17 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: sanitize 'unset' usages
- In some shells (e.g., Solaris 10 /bin/ksh, or NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh),
- "unset VAR" returns a non-zero exit status in case the VAR variable
- is already unset. This doesn't interact well with our usage of
- "set -e" in the testsuite. So far, we've avoided spurious failures
- by either explicitly ignoring the exit status from unset:
- unset VAR || :
- or explicitly ensuring that a variable is set, before trying to
- unset it:
- VAR=; unset VAR
- But we can do better, by aliasing the 'unset' command to a custom
- function that will take care of these details for us. This will
- avoid us annoying spurious failures in the future, failures that
- have already bitten us too much times. For an example, refer to
- commit 'v1.12.2-88-g5b1dae5' of 2012-08-05 (tests: avoid tons of
- spurious failures on NetBSD).

- tests: use perl, not find+rm, to remove temporary directories
- The File::Path::rmtree function from perl, if used right, is
- more reliable and more portable of our past idiom:
- find $dirs -type d ! -perm -700 -exec chmod u+rwx {} ';';
- rm -rf $$dirs || exit 1
- at least of the face of unreadable dirs/files and other similar
- permission issues (and we have those in our test directories).

- "make distcheck" on Solaris 10.

- 2013-05-11 Nick Bowler <nbowler@elliptictech.com> (tiny change)
- Use AC_DEFUN_ONCE to define AM_PROG_CC_C_O
- If AM_PROG_CC_C_O is expanded multiple times, and the compiler does not
- support -c and -o together, each expansion of the macro will prepend
- the compile script to CC. This can result in the compile script
- invoking the compile script, which at best pointless and silly.
- Fortunately, there does not appear to be any serious problems as the
- first compile invocation strips out -o options, causing subsequent
- invocations of the script to merely exec their arguments.
- Other than fixing the above, this should not normally cause any changes
- to the resulting configure script, except in the (hopefully rare) case
- where AM_PROG_CC_C_O is directly expanded (i.e., *not* using AC_REQUIRE)
- in the body of a macro defined with AC_DEFUN. In that case, the use of
- AC_DEFUN_ONCE may cause the expansion of AM_PROG_CC_C_O to appear
- earlier in the configure script.
- * m4/minuso.m4: Change the definition of AM_PROG_CC_C_O to use
- AC_DEFUN_ONCE, avoiding problems caused by multiple expansions.
- 2013-05-11 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- compile: avoid AC_PROG_CC messy rewrite
- Instead, add an hook to AC_OUTPUT to have AM_PROG_CC_C_O invoked
- automatically.
- See also the long-winded discussion about automake bug#13378.
- * m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Bring back the old implementation,

- * lib/Automake/Options.pm (_process_option_list): Here, when an
- incompatible version number option is detected, there's no need
- to call error() with the "uniq_scope => US_GLOBAL" switch.
- In fact, if the same incompatible version number is specified in

- we want each such erroneous usage reported separately, rather than
- just the first time it is encountered (as we'd expect to happen

- maint: targets and recipes to simplify testing on real-world packages
- We introduce a new section in the maintainer-specific makefile that
- contains recipes to test the build system of some well-known GNU
- packages with the current development version of Automake. Not the
- cleanest way to do so, but good enough for the moment. We'll revisit
- the matter after the 1.13.2 release (which we now hope will happen

- make flags analysis: be more robust
- In particular, catering to option-with-argument bundled together
- with options-without-arguments, as in:
- # With GNU make 3.82:
- $ make -f- <<<'all:; echo "$$MFLAGS"' -s -k -I none
- -skiI none
- # With development version of GNU make (Git commit b5ea49b):
- $ make -f- <<<'all:; @echo "$$MFLAGS"' -I none
- -skiI none
- This fixes some lingering failures in the testsuite; precisely, in
- tests 'make-dryrun.tap' and 'make-keepgoing.tap'.
- * t/header-vars.am (am__make_running_with_option): Enhance.
- 2013-05-02 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- make flags analysis: cater to GNU make 3.83 (still unreleased as of now)
- The current development version of GNU make (that is planned to become
- GNU make 3.83, sooner or later) has changed the format its $(MFLAGS)
- variable slightly, removing the space between an option and its argument:
- # With GNU make 3.82, compiled from official tarball:
- $ make -f- <<<'all:; @echo "$$MFLAGS"' -I none
- -I none
- # With development version of GNU make (Git commit b5ea49b):
- $ make -f- <<<'all:; @echo "$$MFLAGS"' -I none
- -Inone
- This was done on purpose, in order to support more easily the new
- option '-O', which takes an optional argument; see:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2013-05/msg00001.html>
- So Just adapt to the new format as well.
- * t/header-vars.am (am__make_running_with_option): Adjust to cater
- to the new GNU make behaviour.
- 2013-05-02 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: expose weaknesses in make flags analysis
- This introduces some failures in the testsuite, that will be fixed

- line, both directly and using AM_MAKEFLAGS.

- subdirs: don't return false positives for the '-k' option's presence
- This change fixes automake bug#12554.
- The old implementation of the code descending into $(SUBDIRS)
- entries used the following snippet to decide whether make is running
- with the '-k' a.k.a. '--keep-going' option, and thus whether a failure
- in a subdirectory should prevent the descent in the following ones:
- fail= failcom='exit 1'; \
- for f in x $$MAKEFLAGS; do \
- case $$f in \
- *=* | --[!k]*);; \
- *k*) failcom='fail=yes';; \
- esac; \
- done
- It's clear that the second pattern in the 'case' construct could possibly
- match false positives, for examples in these two cases:
- make check TESTS="x.test k.test"
- make -I /usr/local/kool-fragments
- which are somewhat unusual, but not invalid. So we need a more resilient
- implementation, as we did for the detection of the '-n' flag.
- This implementation is now provided by the new private macro
- '$(am__make_keepgoing)' (introduced in recent commits); so we can
- just us that to fix the bug.
- * lib/am/subdirs.am ($(am__recursive_targets)): Use '$(am__make_keepgoing)'
- instead of ad-hoc and more brittle checks.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove the now-passing test case

- tar: format 'ustar' cannot support UID/GID longer than 21 bits
- See automake bug#8343 and bug#13588.
- POSIX 1988 'ustar' format is defined with *fixed-size* fields. There
- is notably a 21 bits limit (2097151) for the UID and the GID.
- Tom Rini tom_rini@mentor.com says (in bug#8343):
- When the user has a UID or GID that is larger than the ustar format
- supports, pax does not error out gracefully in some cases (FC13).
- Marc Herbert <marc.herbert@intel.com> adds (in bug#8343):
- When "configure" is run by a user with an UID bigger than 21 bits,
- BSD pax 3.4 aborts when trying to create the 'conftest.tar' test
- archive and leaves an empty or corrupted conftest.tar file behind.
- In the next step, pax tries to extract this incomplete or corrupted
- archive and this *** hangs the whole ./configure script ***.
- Note: GNU cpio 2.9 pretends to pass the test but it is a LIE: it
- silently truncates any big UID to its lower 21 bits. I don't know
- what can be the consequences of this lie.
- I think there is currently a design issue in automake/m4/tar.m4
- considering that a ustar archive should should *never* succeed when
- ./configure is run from a big user ID.
- Months later, Petr Hracek <phracek@redhat.com> reports a similar issue
- (in bug#13588) for Fedora 17:
- I am trying to solve problem in case a user is created with big
- UID and during configuration pax hangs with message
- ATTENTION! pax archive volume change required.
- Ready for archive volume: 1
- Input archive name or "." to quit pax.
- Archive name >
- and needs user interaction.
- Reference: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843376>
- Time to fix this issue, on the line of a preliminary patch provided by
- Petr Hracek in bug#13588. The final patch ended up being remarkably
- different from that original proposition, though.
- * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): If the UID or GID of the current user is
- too high (> 2097151), the 'ustar' format cannot work. Adjust checks
- accordingly. Some related code reordering and clean-up.
- * t/tar-ustar-id-too-high.sh: New test.

- perl: perl subroutine prototypes are problematic, don't use them
- 2013-04-19 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- perl: perl subroutine prototypes are problematic, don't use them
- Basically, in perl, "subroutine prototypes" are not prototypes at all;
- rather, they are a trick to allow user-defined subroutines that behave
- like perl built-in functions. For example, prototyped subroutines can
- be called without parentheses, and can impose context on their arguments.
- Such semantics can be useful in some selected situations, but might also
- easily cause unexpected and harmful behaviours and side effects if we
- try to use perl prototypes as we would use C prototypes.
- See the excellent article "Far More than Everything You've Ever Wanted
- to Know about Prototypes in Perl" by Tom Christiansen for more detailed
- information:
- <http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=861966>
- <http://web.archive.org/web/20080421062920/\
- library.n0i.net/programming/perl/articles/fm_prototypes>
- It is important to note that modern perl allows a non-predeclared
- subroutine to be called without the '&' character, as long as its
- call uses proper parentheses:
- foo 'str', 2; # will trigger errors if foo is not predeclared
- foo('str', 2); # ok even if foo is not predeclared
- &foo('str', 2); # ditto; but the '&' is old-style and redundant
- Note also that the prototype indicating "no argument":
- sub func() { ... }
- can actually be useful, and has no discernible downsides, so we'll
- keep using it where it makes sense.
- Also, in few, selected cases, we *want* to have subroutines behave like
- perl builtins (e.g., we want the 'append_exeext' function to be able
- to take a code block as first argument). In such cases, we will of
- course continue to make use of perl subroutine prototypes.
- Let's finally see an example that might clarify the kind of problems the
- use of subroutine prototypes in perl can cause. This is just scratching
- the surface; there are several other aspects, typically subtler and more
- dangerous, that are not touched here.
- If you have the prototyped subroutine definition:
- sub foo ($@)
- {
- my $s = shift;
- print "SCALAR: $s\n";
- print "ARRAY: @_\n";
- }
- and call 'foo' in code like:
- @list = (-1, 0, 1);
- foo(@list);
- you won't get a compile-time nor a runtime error (as a naive interpretation
- of the "prototype" characterization would let you think). Rather, the
- prototype will cause the array '@list' will be coerced into scalar context
- before being passed too 'foo', which means that its *length* (3) will be
- passed to 'foo' as first argument; and since no further arguments are
- present after '@list', that *void* will be coerced to an empty list before
- being passed to 'foo'.
- So code above will have the result of printing:
- SCALAR: 3
- ARRAY:
- Quite tricky, and definitely a behaviour we don't want to rely on.
- * automake.in: Delete most subroutine prototypes. Fix few of the
- remaining ones. Related minor simplifications and adjustments.

- aclocal: just warn if the primary local m4 dir doesn't exist (don't error)
- Related to automake bug#13514.
- Every package which does not need to have the local m4 macro
- directory pre-existing in the version control system (because
- e.g., it does not have nor need any private m4 macros) would
- fail during the "autoreconf -vfi" phase if AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4])
- is specified in configure.ac (it could be to instruct tools like
- 'autopoint' and 'libtoolize' to use 'm4' as the local directory
- where to install definitions of their m4 macros, and to instruct
- aclocal to look into it). The failure would go like this:
- autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
- autoreconf: running: aclocal --force
- aclocal: error: couldn't open directory 'm4': No such file or directory
- autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1
- The problem is that when 'aclocal' is run for the first time during
- 'autoreconf', the directory 'm4' does not exist yet. It will be
- created by e.g., 'libtoolize' or 'autopoint' later on. During the
- second 'aclocal' run, the 'm4' directory exists and aclocal does not
- complain.
- To work around this issue, we degrade the error to a simple warning.
- The warning is still quite useful when aclocal is run by hand - so
- we are not removing completely.

- - major versions for backward-incompatibilities, complex new
- features, and major refactoring.

- preproc: add support for relative names in included fragments
- The rationale for this change is that it is annoying to have
- to repeat the directory name when including a Makefile fragment.
- For deep directory structures these repeats can generate a lot
- of bloat. It also hinders reuse and easy directory restructuring
- if all Makefile fragments have to know exactly where they live.
- Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn, and later discussed in bug#13524.
- In the course of discussion, the following notations were rejected:
- &{reldir}& - to hard to type, {reldir} - interferes with ${reldir},
- {am_reldir} - short form {D} interferes with ${D}, @am_reldir@ - short
- form @D@ interferes with AC_SUBST([D]) as well as invading the
- config.status turf. Other notations were also suggested...
- * automake.in (read_am_file): Add third argument specifying the
- relative directory of this Makefile fragment compared to the
- main Makefile. Replace %reldir% and %canon_reldir% in the
- fragment with this relative directory (with slashes etc, or
- canonicalized).
- (read_main_am_file): Adjust.
- * t/preproc-reldir.sh: New test.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk: Augment.
- * doc/automake.texi (Include): Document the new feature.
- NEWS: Add new feature.

- tests on TAP: don't run the driver with perl unconditionally
- * t/ax/tap-setup.sh: When a 'Makefile.am' was pre-existent in the
- test directory at the moment the client test script sourced this
- file, said 'Makefile.am' was tweaked to provide it with a proper
- definition of TEST_LOG_DRIVER. However, there was an error in this
- automatic definition, since it caused the TAP test driver to be
- unconditionally invoked with perl. This wasn't an issue in most
- situations, since perl is smart enough to re-execute a given script
- with the proper interpreter if it sees a she-bang line that doesn't
- seem to point to perl itself. Still, there is no reason to do
- something blatantly wrong even if our tools correct the dumb mistake
- for us. So fix the TEST_LOG_DRIVER definition.

- NEWS: IRIX is still supported; only SGI C compiler depcomp no longer is
- This change is for the maint branch.
- The only IRIX-specific support that is going to actually be removed in
- the next major Automake versions is the depcomp support for the SGI
- compiler. That means that automatic dependency tracking will no
- longer work with that compiler, but "normal" compilation should still
- work, at least until the compiler is supported by Autoconf.
- So there is no point in alarming our users by stating in the NEWS file
- that "support for IRIX and the SGI compilers is going to be removed";
- after all, while we don't test on nor particularly care about IRIX
- anymore, that doesn't mean we are deliberately breaking it, and the
- likelihood of an intended breakage there is very low.

- compat: reinstate AM_CONFIG_HEADER and AM_PROG_CC_STDC
- Make them give runtime warnings in the obsolete category, but apart
- from that, make them behave as they did in Automake 1.12.x and earlier.
- While removing those macros seemed quite harmless, because it didn't put
- a real burden on the developers (requiring them just to do a quick edit
- to configure.ac), it turned out to place an unsustainable burden (or at
- least, a burden perceived as such) on distro packagers who use the latest
- Automake to bootstrap existing packages. Many of those packages, while
- having likely updated to AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in their development version,
- still used AM_CONFIG_HEADER in their existing released versions, and the
- removal of this macro would have thus forced the Fedora packagers to
- patch all of them. References:
- <http://www.mail-archive.com/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/msg52840.html>
- <http://www.spinics.net/lists/fedora-devel/msg175922.html>
- <http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2013/01/autotools-mythbuster-automake-pains>
- In addition, the Fedora packagers have already decided to patch their
- Automake 1.13.1 to reinstate the AM_CONFIG_HEADER and AM_PROG_CC_STDC
- macros (plus other macros that I don't believe it's worth worrying about):

- ithreads: use runtime (not configure time) detection of perl threads
- I can't imagine the runtime checks being a big runtime penalty, so there
- shouldn't be a need to do the checks at configure check and hardcode the
- result in the generated automake.
- With the current system, it means if you change your perl config (build
- perl w/threads, build automake, build perl w/out threads), or deploy a
- compiled automake package on a different system (build had threads, but
- deployed system does not), you get errors when trying to run automake.
- So take the logic from configure.ac and move it to the one place where
- PERL_THREADS is used (lib/Automake/Config.in) and do the version/config
- checking at runtime.
- * bootstrap.sh (PERL_THREADS): Delete assignment and use in sed.
- * configure.ac (am_cv_prog_PERL_ithreads, PERL_THREADS): Delete all code

- compile: use 'compile' script when "-c -o" is used with losing compilers
- Do so seen when only source files in the "current" directory are present.
- This commit is part of a series of related changes addressing automake
- bug#13378 (see also the plan 'PLANS/subdir-objects.txt').
- Before this change, Automake-generated C compilation rules mistakenly
- passed the "-c -o" options combination unconditionally (even to losing
- compiler) when the 'subdir-objects' was used but sources were only
- present in the top-level directory. Issue spotted by Nick Bowler:
- <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378#35>
- <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378#44>
- We fix this by having Automake redefine AC_PROG_CC to take over the role
- of AM_PROG_CC_C_O and to require the 'compile' script unconditionally
- (albeit that will continue to be invoked only when inferior compilers
- are detected).
- Among other things, this means AM_PROG_CC_C_O explicitly is no longer
- required; that macro is still supported for backward-compatibility, but
- calling it is basically a no-op now.
- This change has some pros and some cons (obviously, we believe the former
- outweighs the latter). Here are the most relevant ones:
- + Pros 1:
- Some logic in the Automake script has been simplified.
- + Pros 2:
- That simplification has automatically fixed an actual bug (see
- Nick's mails referenced above; admittedly, that was present only in
- corner-case situations, but still); the test 't/ccnoco4.sh', which
- demonstrated the bug and has been failing so far, now passes.
- + Pros 3:
- Things works more "automagically" now (no need to manually add the
- AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro to configure.ac anymore).
- * Cons 1:
- The 'compile' script will be required in all projects using C
- compilation; this will only be a problem for packages not using
- '--add-missing'. However, such packages are definitely more rare
- than the ones using '--add-missing', and adjusting them will be
- trivial -- just copy the compile script over from the new Automake
- installation.
- * Cons 2:
- The copy & paste of autoconf internals hack this change has introduced
- in our "rewrite" of AC_PROG_CC is really an egregious abomination. It
- can only be justified with the fact that we expect future versions of
- autoconf to implement the semantics we need directly in AC_PROG_CC, so
- that we'll be able to leverage that (since Automake 1.14 will require
- the latest Autoconf version released).
- Now, the detailed list of file-by-file changes ...
- * automake.in ($seen_cc_c_o): Remove this global variable.
- (scan_autoconf_traces): Don't set it, and do not trace the
- 'AM_PROG_CC_C_O' m4 macro.
- (lang_c_rewrite): Remove, no longer needed.
- * doc/automake.texi: Adjust expected "autoreconf --install" output
- in the amhello example. Remove statements about the need for the
- AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro. Report it is obsolete now.
- * m4/init.m4: Re-write AC_PROG_CC to append checks about whether the
- C compiler supports "-c -o" together. These checks have basically
- been ripped out (with adaptations) from the 'AC_PROG_CC_C_O' macro
- of Autoconf and ...
- * m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): ... this macro of ours, which has
- thus basically become a no-op.
- * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (am_setup_testdir): Also copy the 'compile'
- script in the test directory; if we don't do so, every test using
- AC_PROG_CC should call automake with the "--add-missing" option, or
- copy the 'compile' script itself.
- * t/cond11.sh: No need to create a dummy 'compile' script: that is
- already brought in by 'am_setup_testdir()', that is automatically
- invoked when 'test-lib.sh' is sourced.
- * t/add-missing.tap: Adjust: we expect the 'compile' script to be
- required by a mere AC_PROG_CC call now.
- * t/dist-auxdir-many-subdirs.sh: Likewise.
- * t/specflg6.sh: Likewise.

- depend2.am: fix comments on verbosity of compilation rules
- The situation and decisions described on those comments have become
- quite outdated since the introduction of the silent-rules support.
- Today, the general idea is to have nice, terse output if silent rules
- are enabled, and complete, faithful, very verbose output if they are
- not -- without trying to "massage" this verbose output in a more
- pleasant form if that would cause complication in the affected code.
- So it's better to just drop the obsolescent comments.
- Note that we don't start simplifying the existing rules according
- to this new philosophy; that will only be done when touching some
- existing code (for the 'depend2.am' code, that will probably happen
- on the master branch).

- coverage: compile rules used "-c -o" also with losing compilers
- If the 'subdir-objects' option is used, Automake-generated rules for
- C compilation pass both the "-c" and "-o" options to the C compiler,
- *unconditionally*. There are some compilers that choke on such an
- usage, but the AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro takes care of them (it does so by
- redefining $CC to use the Automake-provided 'compile' wrapper script
- automatically, if a losing compiler is detected at configure runtime).
- Unfortunately, in case the 'subdir-objects' option is specified in a
- Makefile.am, but all the source files resided anyway in the top-level
- directory (relative to the Makefile.am), Automake do *not* complain
- if AM_PROG_CC_C_O wasn't invoked in 'configure.ac' -- all the while
- still passing "-c -o" to the compiler invocations. This could cause
- compilation failures with losing compilers if the user forget to call
- AM_PROG_CC_C_O in 'configure.ac' (and Automake would not warn him of
- the issue).
- Expose this bug in the testsuite.

- plans: add the "PLANS" directory
- Individual files or sub-directories about future and on-going
- development plans in Automake will be added in follow-up commits.
- This new set of documents is meant to help ensure a more controlled
- and smooth development and evolution for Automake, in several ways.
- - Having the plans clearly spelled out should will avoid messy
- roadmaps with no clear way forward or with muddy or ill-defined
- aims or purposes; a trap this is too easy to fall into.
- - Keeping planned changes cooking and re-hashed for a while should
- ensure rough edges are smoothed up, transitions are planned in a
- proper way (hopefully avoiding debacles like the AM_MKDIR_PROG_P
- deprecation and the AM_CONFIG_HEADER too-abrupt removal), and
- "power users" have more chances of getting informed in due time,
- thus having all the time to prepare for the changes or raise
- objections against them.
- - Having the plans clearly stated and registered in a "centralized"
- location should make it more difficult to them to slip through
- the cracks, getting forgotten or (worse) only half-implemented.
- - Even for discussions and plans registered on the Bug Tracker
- as well, a corresponding entry in the PLANS directory can help
- in keeping main ideas summarized, and consensus and/or objections
- registered and easily compared.
- Motivation:
- <http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2013/01/autotools-mythbuster-automake-pains>

- basically true and even spot-on in some regards.

- docs: re-introduce mention of two-args AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation
- Albeit obsolescent and raising warnings in the 'obsolete' category,
- that usage is still supported, and will need to be until Autoconf
- improves its handling of configure-time-generated package version
- numbers. So it's better to explicitly document it again, stating
- that it is obsoleted but still working (and why), rather then leaving
- it as Yet Another Undocumented Feature (that will mysteriously and
- suddenly break some random day in the future).
- It's worth giving some background about how we ended up in the
- situation that this patch fixes.
- We had originally removed support for the long-deprecated two-args
- AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation (see commit v1.12-67-ge186355). Before
- that removal could land in a released Automake version, Bob Friesenhahn
- made a quite compelling point that the two-args AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
- invocation could still be useful for modern, maintained packages like
- GraphicsMagick, at least until Autoconf is fixed to offer better support
- for "dynamic" package versions (see commit v1.12.2-245-g2abe183 for more
- in-depth rationales and references). However, in that commit we didn't
- revert the removal of the *documentation* for this two-arguments
- AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation (and no rationale for not doing so was given
- in the commit message). Time to remedy that.
- Indirectly suggested by Diego Elio Pattenò:

- texi: deprecate hack about info files in CLEANFILES variables
- For quite a long time, Automake has been implementing an undocumented
- hack which ensured that '.info' files which appeared to be cleaned (by
- e.g. being listed in the CLEANFILES or DISTCLEANFILES variables) were
- built in the builddir rather than in the srcdir; this hack was introduced
- to ensure better backward-compatibility with packages such as Texinfo,
- which did things like:
- info_TEXINFOS = texinfo.txi info-stnd.texi info.texi
- DISTCLEANFILES = texinfo texinfo-* info*.info*
- # Do not create info files for distribution.
- dist-info:
- @:
- in order not to distribute .info files.
- Now that we have the 'info-in-builddir' option that explicitly causes
- generated '.info' files to be placed in the builddir, this hack should
- be longer necessary, so we deprecate it with runtime warnings. It is
- scheduled to be removed altogether in Automake 1.14.
- * automake.in (handle_texinfo_helper): Raise proper runtime warnings
- if the hack is triggered.
- * NEWS: Update.
- * t/txinfo28.sh: Adjust.
- * t/txinfo23.sh: Likewise.

- texi: info files can be generated in the builddir
- User can now ask info files to be built in the $(builddir), rather than
- the $(srcdir), by specifying the Automake option 'info-in-builddir'.
- This feature was requested by the developers of GCC, GDB, GNU binutils
- and the GNU bfd library. See the extensive discussion about automake
- bug#11034 for more details.
- OK, to be honest, having '.info' files built in the builddir was
- *already* possible, but only using ugly and undocumented hacks involving
- definition of the CLEANFILES and/or DISTCLEANFILES. For example, the
- binutils project did something like this in the relevant 'Makefile.am':
- # Automake 1.9 will only build info files in the objdir if they are
- # mentioned in DISTCLEANFILES. It doesn't have to be unconditional,
- # though, so we use a bogus condition.
- if GENINSRC_NEVER
- DISTCLEANFILES = binutils.info

- tests: don't always look for a C++ compiler named 'RCC'
- On MacOS X (10.8), since the file system is case-insensitive, RCC
- can point to the "Resource Compiler" of the Qt4 Toolkit:
- <http://doc.qt.digia.com/4.2/rcc.html>
- That mismatch causes our configure script to erroneously think that
- no working C++ compiler is present, and that is thus necessary to
- skip all the test cases requiring such a compiler.
- So only look for a compiler named 'RCC' if the file system is
- case-sensible.
- Issue spotted analyzing the testsuite logs reported in bug#13317.
- * configure.ac: Adjust.
- 2013-01-01 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: fix bug in pkg-config-macros.sh, could cause spurious SKIPs
- Issue spotted perusing the testsuite logs reported in bug#13317.
- * t/pkg-config-macros.sh: Don't use (uninitialized) '$dir' where '$d'
- should have been used instead. Set IFS to ':' before looping on the
- $PATH expansion. Fix typo: 'alocal' instead of 'aclocal'. These
- issues were causing the location in PATH of the 'pkg-config' program
- not to be found even when the program was present.
- * THANKS: Update.

- docs: autom4te cache can break CONFIGURE_DEPENDENCIES

- obsolete: better error message if AM_PROG_CC_STDC is used
- In Automake 1.13, the long-deprecated (since 2002) macro AM_PROG_CC_STDC
- has been removed. Such a removal, albeit sensible and justified, was
- probably done in a too-abrupt way, since it didn't turn the pre-existing
- warning messages into fatal error messages, but simply dropped the macro
- definition, so that remaining usages of it would cause unclear error
- messages, e.g.:
- configure.ac:4: warning: macro 'AM_PROG_CC_STDC' not found in library
- from aclocal, and:
- configure.ac:4: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_CC_STDC
- If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
- See the Autoconf documentation.
- from autoconf.
- In an attempt to mitigate this issue, we re-add an AM_PROG_CC_STDC
- definition that simply raises a *clear* error message when the macro
- is used.
- * t/am-prog-cc-stdc-no-more.sh: New test.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.
- * m4/obsolete-err.m4: Add the new "error-raising" definition for
- AM_PROG_CC_STDC; the error message is a variation of the one already
- present in the older version of this macro, before it got removed in
- commit 'v1.12-15-gd2ca168'.
- * NEWS: Update.
- 2012-12-30 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- obsolete: better error message if AM_CONFIG_HEADER is used
- In Automake 1.13, the long-deprecated macro AM_CONFIG_HEADER (deprecated
- since 2002) has been removed in favour of AC_CONFIG_HEADERS. However,
- the removal was done without a proper deprecation period, and that
- caused packages upgrading to Automake 1.13 to fail with very unclear
- error messages, e.g.:
- configure.ac:4: warning: macro 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER' not found in library
- from aclocal, and:
- configure.ac:4: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONFIG_HEADER
- If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.

- ylwrap: various fixes
- Rename properly header guards in generated header files, instead of
- leaving Y_TAB_H.
- Convert header guards in implementation files. Because ylwrap failed
- to rename properly #include in the implementation files, current
- versions of Bison (e.g., 2.7) duplicate the generated header file in
- the implementation file. The header guard then protects the
- implementation file from duplicate definitions from the header file.
- Generate header guards with a single '_' for series of non alphabetic
- characters, instead of several. This is what Bison does.
- Makes the test t/yacc-d-basic.sh pass again.
- * lib/ylwrap (guard): Properly honor $1 to rename properly the
- header guards.
- Keep a single _ instead of several.
- (rename_sed): Rename as...
- (sed_fix_filenames): this.
- Suggested by Stefano Lattarini.
- (sed_fix_header_guards): New.
- Use it.
- 2012-12-21 Akim Demaille <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

- b
- status = 0
- with Solaris 10 /usr/xpg4/bin/grep we have:
- $ echo b | grep -E '(|a)b'; echo status = $?
- 1
- status = 1
- * t/silent-texi.sh: That was causing a spurious failure here. Fix it
- by simply using '?' instead (as suggested by the Autoconf manual).

- and refactorings while at it.
- 2012-12-14 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- maint: move maintainer make rules in maint.mk
- This is done for two reasons:
- 1. It will enable us to take advantage of more GNU make
- features in our maintainer-specific recipes, if we
- want to (and we probably will).
- 2. The Makefile.am won't have to be modified each time a
- maintainer rule needs to be changed or tweaked; this
- will prevent useless remaking of (in particular) the
- 't/testsuite-part.am' file.
- * maint.mk: New, several recipes, rules and variables for
- maintainer-specific tasks, extracted (with some tweaks)
- from ...
- * Makefile.am: ... this file.
- (EXTRA_DIST): Add 'maint.mk'.
- * GNUmakefile: Include 'maint.mk' after 'Makefile'.

- The new names are the same used by the similar-purpose rules provided by

- No need to have gratuitous incompatibilities.

- cosmetic: minor variable and rules reordering in Makefile.am
- 2012-12-13 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- docs: build the web manuals for CVS in the builddir, not in the srcdir
- We can do so using the '-I' option of the gendocs.sh script.
- Inspired by the 'web-manual' rule in the 'top/maint.mk' file provided
- by gnulib (as of commit v0.0-7741-g4a8c422) as customized by Bison in
- its 'cfg.mk' file (as of commit v2.6.5-1007-gf5fceda).
- * Makefile.am (web-manuals): Modify and simplify to take advantage
- of gendocs.sh's '-I' option.
- (upload-we-manuals): Accordingly adjust sanity checks and the rsync
- invocation in the recipe.
- (clean_texinfo_clutter_cmd): Delete this variable, it's no longer
- required.
- (clean-texinfo-clutter): Delete this phony target, it's no longer
- required.
- (clean-local): Don't depend on it.
- * configure.ac: Invoke AC_PROG_LN_S, since we want to use $(LN_S)
- in the new 'web-manuals' recipe.
- 2012-12-13 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- release: automate uploading of web manuals in CVS
- This is partly inspired to the 'gnu-web-doc-update' script from
- gnulib. Unfortunately, we can't use that script directly, because
- as of now it assumes a build system integrated with gnulib.
- * Makefile.am (upload-web-manuals): New .PHONY rule.
- (RSYNC, CVS, CVSU, CVS_USER, WEBCVS_ROOT): New variables, used by
- the new rule.

- tests: avoid two spurious failures on FreeBSD
- Due to the FreeBSD make bug that causes of the well-known automake
- bug#7884, two of our bison-requiring tests were failing on FreeBSD.
- To avoid this, simply skip the part of these tests affected by that
- bug.
- * t/yacc-bison-skeleton.sh: Here, using the 'yl_distcheck' function.
- * t/yacc-bison-skeleton-cxx.sh: Likewise.
- * t/yacc-nodist.sh: While at it, use the 'yl_distcheck' here

- tests: improve 'pkg-config' requirement
- This improves (and unifies among different tests) the detection of
- both the 'pkg-config' program and m4 macros provided by it; they are
- needed in particular by tests on Vala support.
- Before this, some Vala-related tests were failing spuriously when the
- pkg-config program was available but the macros from pkg.m4 were not
- made explicitly available in ACLOCAL_PATH. These tests were:
- vala-mix vala-mix2 vala-parallel vala-vapi vala-vpath
- See also similar commit 'v1.11-581-gb7d67d5' of 2011-12-22,
- "tests: better handling of gettext and libtool requirements".
- * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (process_requirements): If a requirement
- matches the 'pkg-config*' wildcard, try to make available to it
- the pkg-config m4 macros, and skip it if it's not possible.
- This is done by sourcing the 'get.sh' fragment generated by ...
- * t/pkg-config-macros.sh: ... this new test, which looks in
- advance for the 'pkg-config' program and the m4 macros that
- comes with it.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add the new test.
- * gen-testsuite-part (%deps_extractor): Tests requiring pkg-config
- will need the m4 macros coming with it; so these tests should be
- run after the 'pkg-config-macros.sh' test. Automatically generate
- proper declarations for such dependencies.
- * t/vala-header.sh: No need to explicitly check that the macro
- PKG_CHECK_MODULES has been expanded by autoconf.

- * t/vala-non-recursive-setup.sh: Likewise.

- According to the comments in the now-removed test 'depcomp5.test' (removed
- by commit 'v1.11-1829-g5066c1b' of 2012-02-08, "tests: improve and rework
- tests on dependency tracking") "icc 8.0 and greater understand gcc options,
- so depmode is set to gcc". According to Wikipedia, the 8.0 version of the
- Intel C compiler has been released in December 2003, that is, almost nine
- yeas ago. So we can remove explicit support for icc 7.x from the depcomp
- script.
- Since our support for tcc has so far been relied on the icc depmode, we
- must write a new explicit 'tcc' depmode. That is easy to do, since we can
- rely on the simpler and better-specified format of tcc-specified makefiles;

- 2012-11-24 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- python: make installed modules find by default on Debian and Ubuntu
- This change fixes automake bug#10227.
- The code used to get the python package directory was wrong for Python 3,
- at least on Debian and Ubuntu distributions. In the case the installation
- was using the default prefix "/usr/local", python modules were incorrectly
- installed in the directory
- /usr/local/lib/python3/dist-packages
- (which is *not* searched by default), rather than in a directory like
- /usr/local/lib/python3.x/dist-packages
- which is searched by default.
- * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Try to use the 'sysconfig' module if
- possible, for better interactions with python 3.x.

- tests: avoid a failure due to m4 builtin 'sinclude' in package name
- Even with Autoconf 2.69, AC_INIT is not very robust when to package
- names that contain some selected m4 builtins; for example:
- $ echo 'AC_INIT([sinclude], [1.0])' | autoconf -o/dev/null -
- stdin:1: warning: file `' included several times
- $ echo 'AC_INIT([dnl], [1.0])' | autoconf -o/dev/null -
- /usr/bin/m4:stdin:1: excess arguments to builtin `m4_define' ignored
- autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
- Reference:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2012-11/msg00005.html>
- * t/aclocal-m4-sinclude.sh (configure.ac): Use 'm4sinclude' as package
- name in the AC_INIT invocation, to avoid tickling the just-described
- bug.

- tests: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS: ignore inevitable failures with old autoconf
- When "older" version of autoconf are used (that is, those before commit
- v2.69-44-g1ed0548), we have no sane way to prevent the autom4te invocation
- issued from aclocal to possibly display warnings "MACRO m4_require'd but
- not m4_defun'd". That's not a big deal, because that just means that
- people using pre-2.70 autoconf with cutting-edge automake will see few
- spurious warnings, but the actual semantics will remain correct.
- However, this blemish was causing a couple of annoying testsuite failures.
- Solve this by simply skipping the affected tests when older (pre-2.70)
- autoconf versions are used.

- recursion: remove _AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS indirection

- truly simplify the existing code, but make it slightly easier to
- understand anyway, since leave it with one less indirection.
- * automake.in: Trace AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS directly, rather

- aclocal: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS: work around autom4te option parsing bugs
- The autom4te program coming with autoconf 2.68 and earlier had a bug
- which caused the "-" command line argument (with which we tell it to
- read some input from from standard input) to aways be pushed at the
- *end* of the command line, regardless of where the user specified it
- (that bug was fixed by autoconf commit 'v2.68-120-gf4be358', "getopt:
- new Autom4te::Getopt module").
- This broken semantics conflict with our usage in aclocal, where we
- need to pass some input to the invoked autom4te program early, and
- have so far been using the stdin to do so. Now we start using an
- external file instead.
- * m4/internal/ac-config-macro-dirs.m4: New file, contain a fallback
- definition of the AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS macro for older autoconf
- releases.
- * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): When invoking autom4te, use that

- aclocal: tracing AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS can work with older autoconf as well
- This will allow our users to interact also with pre-2.70 autoconf without
- need for the user to add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am. For example,
- before this change, in order to have aclocal look for macros in 'm4/dir1'
- and 'm4/dir2' also when (say) autoconf 2.69 was used, our users would
- have had to add something like:
- ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4/dir1 -I m4/dir2
- in Makefile.am, in addition to the
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4/dir1 m4/dir2])
- in configure.ac. Now, the AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS call is enough.

- aclocal: avoid spurious warnings from autom4te with AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS
- When some macro expanded in configure.ac calls AC_REQUIRE on another
- macro that is defined in one of the local m4 macro dirs specified
- with AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS, aclocal prints spurious warnings like:
- configure.ac:4: warning: MY_BAR is m4_require'd but not m4_defun'd
- configure.ac:3: MY_FOO is expanded from...
- Such warnings come from autom4te, and are due to the fact that the
- *first* autom4te invocation issued by aclocal is not yet able to
- "see" the m4 macro definitions in the local m4 dirs (because they
- can be looked for only after the AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS call has been
- traced, and tracing it requires running autom4te).
- To allow us to work around this issue, autom4te has introduced a new
- "witness" macro 'm4_require_silent_probe', that, when defined, allows
- us to silence that particular kind of warnings (and only it).
- Reported by Nick Bowler; see point (4) of:

- aclocal: smash newlines in arguments of traced macros
- This change fixes the existing issues with AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS
- containing newlines:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2012-11/msg00000.html>
- Likely, it will also allow a less involved implementation of the
- AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS macro (but that is left for potential
- follow-up patches).
- * aclocal.in (trace_used_macros): When calling autom4te, pass its
- '--trace' option an argument containing '${::}%' rather than '$1'.
- According to the autoconf manual (as of version 2.69), that will expand
- to the concatenation, with the '::' string, of all the arguments passed
- to a macro, with all newline characters in such arguments smashed.
- Related adjustments when handling the macro AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS, to
- ensure leading whitespace in its argument are handled correctly.
- * t/aclocal-macrodirs.tap ("AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS: extra whitespace"):
- No longer declare it as an xfailing test.

- tests: better coverage for AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS
- Suggested by a report from Nick Bowler:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2012-11/msg00000.html>
- * t/aclocal-macrodirs.tap: Enhance to check use of extra whitespaces
- and newline characters in the arguments to AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS. This
- test currently fails, so mark it as "TODO". While at it, throw in other
- minor edits and enhancements.
- 2012-11-10 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- aclocal: diagnose non-existing directories in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS better
- This new implementation ensures that any directory (possibly excluding
- the first one, if the '--install' option is used) that is declared with
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS and that is non-existent will cause an error from
- aclocal.
- * aclocal.in (scan_m4_dirs): Add a new argument, telling whether it's OK
- for the scanned directory to be non-existing. Adjust the implementation
- accordingly.
- ($first_user_m4dir): Remove, no more needed.
- (scan_m4_files): Update 'scan_m4_dirs' invocations so that aclocal will
- not complain if the first user macro directory is non-existing and the
- '--install' option is given: such directory will be created later by
- aclocal itself.
- * t/aclocal-macrodir.tap: Do not mark the last test as TODO anymore;
- it now passes. Make stricter by ensuring a non-existing directory in
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS causes an hard error, not a warning.
- 2012-11-10 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- aclocal: multiple local m4 macro dirs with AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS
- A new macro 'AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS' has been recently introduced in
- autoconf (and is expected to appear in the autoconf 2.70 release),
- allowing us to declare several local m4 macro directories for a
- package.
- It can be done either passing several arguments to a single invocation:
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([dir1 dir2])
- or issuing more invocations:
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([dir1])
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([dir2])
- or a combination of the two:
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([dir1 dir2])
- AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([dir3])
- This will allow projects to use several m4 macro local dirs, without the
- need to use ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS (which we want to make obsolete and finally
- remove). This is especially important for projects that are used as
- nested subpackages of larger projects.

- tests: remove mostly-redundant tests on silent rules
- We used to have several couples of tests named like 'silent-foo-gcc.sh'
- and 'silent-foo-generic.sh'. Differently from what the names suggest,
- the first test in such a couple (that is, "silent-foo-gcc.sh") was not
- meant to check specific GCC-related features, but rather to check how
- the silent rules behave in combination with automatic dependency tracking
- when the 'gcc' depmode (that targets GCC versions before the 3.x and 4.x
- release series) is forced.
- Such depmode forcing was done exclusively to cover the code paths in
- 'lib/am/depend2.am' that actually invoke the 'depcomp' script, rather
- than using the inlined, GCC-specific compiler invocation (the so-called
- "fastdep" mode), which is the default with modern GCC or with other
- modern compilers that can emulate the GCC command-line interface (e.g.,
- clang 3.0).
- But whenever we run the silent-*-generic.sh" tests with other supported
- compilers which have an associated depmode different from 'gcc3', these
- same "non-fastdep" code paths are covered, since in those tests we run
- ./configure with the '--enable-dependency-tracking' option, which causes
- slower depmodes not to be rejected. Examples of such compilers are the
- Sun C and C++ compilers (at least since version 5.9, a.k.a. Sun Studio
- 12.1), and the Tiny C Compiler (from version 0.9.26); and I run the
- Automake testsuite quite regularly with those compilers.
- So, the "silent-*-gcc.sh" test cases don't offer any real coverage
- enhancements, while still using testsuite runtime and causing some
- (admittedly minor, but still annoying) synchronization headaches with
- the sister tests "silent-foo-general.sh" tests. So let's just remove
- these "silent-*-gcc.sh" tests.

- We don't do this in a sweeping passage, because that would cause
- endless headaches in the synchronization between the maint, master

- vala: AM_PROG_VALAC should not produce an error for tool-old valac
- This change fixes automake bug#12688.
- In the AM_PROG_VALAC macro, when the optional parameter specifying the
- minimum release number is not provided, and/or if the Vala compiler is
- not found, then there is a _warning_ message.
- On the other hand, when the version number is specified and if the Vala
- compiler is too old, there is an _error_ message.
- This error message is problematic, because for a tarball, the Vala
- compiler is not required: the generated C code is included in the
- tarball. So if a user wants to compile the software, he shouldn't
- need the valac program with the right version.

- tests: ensure generation of wrapper tests matching multiple conditions
- * gen-testsuite-part: Our old code to generate wrapper tests had a
- severe limitation, in that if a test matched two or more conditions
- calling for generation of wrapper tests, still only one wrapper test
- was generated, instead of the three that would have been expected --
- that is, one using the setup code triggered by the first condition,
- one using the setup code triggered by the second condition, and one
- using both this setup code fragments.
- Admittedly, this was only a theoretical limitation for the moment,
- since since so far no test exists that matches two or more conditions
- for wrapping. Still, this might change in the future, and easily in
- an unnoticed way, so better fix the issue now, before it might become
- a real problem.

- compile: support libfoo.a naming when wrapping Microsoft tools
- There is a future plan to provide some means to have Automake
- create static libraries that are named differently depending
- on the system [1].
- The background is that everyone has always named static libraries
- libfoo.a, except the Redmond crowd who names them foo.lib, and
- you have to jump through hoops to have Automake create libraries
- named foo.lib in the land of non-GNU Windows while still creating
- libfoo.a everywhere else.
- However, there is probably no sane way to accomplish that system
- dependent naming discussed in [1] without user intervention,
- which makes it necessary to support the classic libfoo.a naming
- when using Microsoft tools in the best possible way, for the
- benefit of all projects today and for future projects not
- opting in to whatever scheme is selected for the problem at
- hand.
- [1] http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-09/msg00028.html
- * lib/compile (func_cl_dashl): As a last resort, match -lfoo with
- libfoo.a, if that file exist on the library search path.
- * t/compile4.sh: Remove obsolescent workaround for the above.
- * t/compile6.sh: Extend to check that libbaz.a is indeed found
- when baz.lib and baz.dll.lib does not exist and that bar.lib
- and bar.dll.lib are preferred over libbar.a.

- config headers: don't emit rules for headers not generated by autoheader
- This change fixed automake bug#12495.
- Even if an AC_CONFIG_HEADERS invocation is passed a list of several files
- as the first argument, only the first one of those file is considered by
- autoheader for automatic generation of the corresponding '.in' template.
- This is done on purpose, and is clearly documented in the Autoconf manual,
- which (as of the 2.69 version) reads something like this:
- The autoheader program searches for the first invocation of
- AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in configure sources to determine the name of
- the template. If the first call of AC_CONFIG_HEADERS specifies
- more than one input file name, autoheader uses the first one.
- That is, an invocation like:
- AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h config2.h])
- should cause autoheader to generate only a 'config.h.in' template,
- and not also a 'config2.h.in' one.
- Accordingly, automake, when tracing AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, should generate
- remake rules only for the template associated to the first input file
- name passed to that macro. In some situations, however, automake failed
- to properly limit itself in this way; for example, with an input like:
- AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h sub/foo.h])
- in configure.ac, and with the 'sub' directory listed in the SUBDIRS
- variable of the top-level Makefile, automake would erroneously generate
- in 'sub/Makefile.in' a rule to remake the 'foo.h.in' template by
- invoking autoheader.
- This issue was likely introduced in commit 'Release-1-8-23-g262bb92'
- of 2004-01-05.
- * NEWS: Update.
- * doc/automake.texi (Optional): Improve wording in the description of
- hat rules automake generates in response to an 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'
- invocation.
- * lib/am/remake-hdr.am: Only emit autoheader-invoking remake rules for
- the %CONFIG_HIN% template if that corresponds to the first argument of
- AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, as explaned above. Do so using the automake-time
- conditional %?FIRST-HDR%, that is properly passed ...

- AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: allow obsolescent two-args invocation once again
- This partially reverts commit 'v1.12-67-ge186355' of 2012-05-25,
- "init: obsolete usages of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE not supported anymore"
- Some users still need to be able to define the version number for
- their package dynamically, at configure runtime.
- Their user case is that, for development snapshots, they want to be
- able to base the complete version of the package on the VCS revision
- ID (mostly Git or Mercurial). They could of course do so by
- specifying such version dynamically in their call to AC_INIT, as is
- done by several GNU packages. But then they would need to regenerate
- and re-run the configure script before each snapshot, which might be
- very time-consuming for complex packages, to the point of slowing
- down and even somewhat impeding development.
- The situation should truly be solved in Autoconf, by allowing a way
- to specify the version dynamically in a way that doesn't force the
- configure script to be regenerated and re-run every time the package
- version changes. But until Autoconf has been improved to allow
- this, Automake will have to support the obsolescent two-arguments
- invocation for AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, to avoid regressing the suboptimal
- but working solution for the use case described above.

- tests: avoid spurious failure of 't/uninstall-fail.sh' on OpenIndiana
- On current OpenIndiana (based on what once was OpenSolaris 11), the shell
- /bin/sh (which, differently from what happens on Solaris, is a true POSIX
- shell, thus worthy of consideration) somehow manages to "eat" the
- error message from 'rm' when that fails to remove a file due to lacking
- permission on the parent directory:
- $ /bin/sh -c "cd unwritable-dir || { echo OOPS; exit 1; }; rm -f foo"
- $ echo rc = $?
- rc = 1
- $ /bin/bash -c "cd unwritable-dir || { echo OOPS; exit 1; }; rm -f foo"
- rm: foo not removed: Permission denied
- $ echo rc = $?
- rc = 2
- $ /bin/sh -c "cd unwritable-dir || { echo OOPS; exit 1; }; env rm -f foo"
- rm: foo not removed: Permission denied
- $ echo rc = $?
- rc = 2
- That is probably due to an improper optimization, that is, the shell tries
- to be smart and remove the file itself instead of invoking 'rm', but fails
- spectacularly in the attempt.
- * t/uninstall-fail.sh: The just-described bug was causing a spurious
- failure in this test case. Cater to thus situation, by relaxing the
- test when a faulty shell is detected. And while at it, fix and improve
- an unrelated comment.

- Fixes automake bug#10898. See also the older (much older) thread:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2009-12/msg00036.html>
- At least the AT&T and OpenSolaris versions of the Korn shell, as well
- as the /bin/sh from OpenIndiana 11, have a strange bug regarding the
- expansion of ${1+"$@"}: when exactly *one empty* argument is passed to
- a script run by one of this shells, inside that script ${1+"$@"} will
- expand to *nothing*, rather than to to the single empty string, as
- one would expect (OTOH, $# will correctly expand to 1). This buggy
- behaviour was causing a spurious failure in our testsuite (test 6 in
- 't/automake-cmdline.tap'). Work around it.

- Merge branch 'fix-pr12041' into maint
- * fix-pr12041:
- tests: avoid spurious failure when running as root
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- maintcheck: fixup list of files in $(xdefs)
- syntax-checks.mk (xdefs): Adjust to recent changes: add 't/ax/test-lib.sh'
- and 't/ax/test-lib.sh', remove the now-deleted 't/ax/test-init.sh'
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: never source test-defs.sh directly, source test-lib.sh instead
- After the recent re-organization, sourcing 'test-defs.sh' directly might
- not work well and cause spurious failures or other unexpected behaviours.
- We should source 'test-lib.sh' instead, which contains not more direct
- code execution (only definition of shell variables/functions, or sourcing
- of other '*.sh' with the same property), is protected against multiple
- inclusions, and sources 'test-defs.sh' automatically in in a proper way.
- * t/testsuite-summary-count.sh, t/tap-summary.sh, t/tap-summary-color.sh,
- t/testsuite-summary-color.sh: Source 'test-lib.sh', not 'test-defs.sh'.
- * gen-testsuite-part: Likewise, in the generated wrapper scripts.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- runtest: sanitize test environment
- * runtest.in: Here, similarly to what is done by AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
- in Makefile.am, unset variables that should be under the complete control
- of the test framework, and that could create havoc if inherited from the
- environment. This remove the need to check against possible environment
- "pollution" ...
- * t/ax/test-defs.in: ... in here.
- * Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add a comment about the need of
- synchronization with 'runtest.in'.
- * t/self-check-env-sanitize.tap: Remove as obsolete.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: remove an obsolescent self test
- * t/self-check-tap.sh: This. The recent reorganization and code
- moving between 'test-defs.sh' and 'test-lib.sh' has made it
- brittle and prone to failures. Since the usefulness of this self
- check is extremely limited, it's not worth trying to fix it. Just
- remove it.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: "am_using_tap=yes" -> "am_test_protocol=tap"
- And similarly, "am_using_tap=no" -> "am_test_protocol=none".
- The new '$am_test_protocol' name is clearer, and will allow the easy
- addition of further test protocols in the future. This is not truly
- relevant for automake, but we are trying to make some parts of our
- testsuite framework as general as possible, in view of a future move
- to a more generic project like Gnulib.
- * Makefile.am, t/ax/am-test-lib.sh, t/ax/test-defs.in, t/ax/test-lib.sh,
- t/self-check-env-sanitize.tap, t/self-check-tap.sh: Adjust.
- * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_obsolete_variables): Add 'am_using_tap' to
- the list of obsolete variables to check against.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: protect test libs against multiple inclusion
- * t/ax/test-lib.sh, t/ax/am-test-lib.sh: Return early if already sourced.
- Use the witness variables '$test_lib_sourced' and '$am_test_lib_sourced',
- respectively, for this purpose.
- * runtest.in, Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Unset 'test_lib_sourced'
- and 'am_test_lib_sourced', to avoid interferences from the environment.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- configure: testsuite shell can return early from "dot-sourced" files
- * configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run the test
- scripts can call 'return' form within a file being sourced
- with the '.' built-in.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: move sanitization and "Bournification" in the generic test lib
- * t/ax/test-defs.sh: From here ...
- * t/ax/test-lib.sh: ... to here. Also move the initialization of
- '$argv0' and '$me'.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: source test defs in the generic test lib
- * t/ax/test-lib.sh: That is, here ...
- * defs: ... rather than here.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: no need to re-add $srcdir/t/ax to $PATH
- * t/ax/test-defs.sh: Here. That is already done by both 'runtest' and
- AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, and the presence of '$srcdir/t/ax' in $PATH is
- anyway required, after the recent changes, for our testsuite framework
- to work at all.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: split test libs into "generic" and "automake-specific"
- This is the first step in the quest to merge the generically useful
- parts of our test suite framework in a more generic project, like
- Gnulib. Time will tell if we'll succeed, and whether the success will
- be worth the extra hassle.
- * t/ax/test-init.sh: Split out ...
- * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh, t/ax/test-lib.sh: ... into these two tests.
- * defs, Makefile.am: Adjust.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test setup: move actual calling of testsuite setup in ./defs
- * t/ax/test-init.sh: Move call to 'am_test_setup' ...
- * defs: ... here.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test setup: merge definitions of function for simple tests
- * t/ax/plain-functions.sh: Delete, moving the definitions of ...
- ($stderr_fileno_): ... this variable ...
- (warn_, fail_, skip_, skip_all_, fatal_, framework_failure_): ... and
- these functions ...
- * t/ax/test-init.sh: ... in here. This allow us to use those functions
- earlier in this file (instead of having to duplicate their behaviour
- with inlined code). The TAP-based tests are still able to override these
- functions later to their TAP-enhanced equivalents when 'tap-functions.sh'
- is sourced.
- * Makefile.am (dist_noinst_DATA): Remove 't/ax/plain-functions.sh'.
- * t/ax/tap-functions.sh: Adjust a comment.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: new function 'am_test_setup'
- * t/ax/test-init.sh (am_test_setup): Here.
- Call it from the main code. Remove other calls of functions and
- settings that are now duly called by 'am_test_setup'.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: move displaying of debugging info later
- * t/ax/test-init.sh: Here, about the values of $PATH, $am_using_tap
- and $am_running_installcheck.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: new function 'am_setup_testdir'
- * t/ax/test-init.sh (am_setup_testdir): Here.
- Use it instead of inlining its contents in the main code.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: new function 'am_set_exit_traps'
- * t/ax/test-init.sh (am_set_exit_traps): Here.
- (trap): Use it instead of inlining the cleanup/finalization code.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- configure: testsuite shell set exit traps in shell functions
- * configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run the test
- scripts can set an exit trap in a shell function, without having
- that trap executed at the termination of the function rather
- than of the scripts. According to the Autoconf manual, at least
- AUX 5.3 /bin/sh suffers of such a bug.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: new function 'am_exit_trap'
- * t/ax/test-init.sh (am_exit_trap): Here.
- (trap): Use it instead of inlining the cleanup/finialization code.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: new function 'process_requirements'
- * t/ax/test-init.sh (process_requirements): Here.
- Use it in to check that the tools in $required are present.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: refactor: new function 'require_tool'
- * t/ax/test-init.sh (require_tool): Here.
- Use it in the loop in the prerequisites in $required.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test init: remove a couple of paranoid sanity checks
- * t/ax/test-init.sh: Here, about 'am_top_srcdir' and 'am_top_builddir';
- the values of those variables are AC_SUBST'd, so it's nigh impossible
- for the to be wrong or get "messed up".
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: simplify sourcing of helper shell files
- Now that the early $PATH setup in both 'runtest' and AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
- allow the '.' built-in to find to-be-sourced shell scripts in the 't/ax/'
- directory automatically, we can simplify several usages like:
- . "$am_testauxdir"/foo.sh
- to just:
- . foo.sh
- Also, because our test scripts run with the 'errexit' flag active, and
- because POSIX mandates that, when the '.' built-in is used,
- ... if no readable file is found, a non-interactive shell shall abort ...
- we can further simplify usages like:
- . "$am_testauxdir"/foo.sh || fatal_ "sourcing foo.sh"
- once again to to just:
- . foo.sh
- * ./defs, several tests: Adjusted.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: move in 't/ax/test-defs.sh'
- We can do so with minimal churn, now that the early setup of $PATH in
- both 'runtest' and AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT allow the '.' built-in to find
- to-be-sourced shell scripts in 't/ax' automatically, both in in-tree
- and VPATH builds.
- With this change, we take another step forward a more rational and
- "segregated" organization of our testsuite framework.
- * defs-static.in: Rename ...
- * t/ax/test-defs.in: ... like this, and adjust.
- * Makefile.am, syntax-checks.mk, t/README, gen-testsuite-part,
- t/tests-init.sh, t/ax/tap-setup.sh, t/tap-summary.sh, .gitignore,
- t/testsuite-summary-color.sh, t/testsuite-summary-count.sh,
- t/self-check-tap.sh, defs: Adjust.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: update PATH early from AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT and runtest
- Because the POSIX standards mandate that sourcing a file with ". FILE"
- will cause FILE (assuming it is a relative containing no slashes) to be
- looked for in PATH, such a move will allow us to simplify our sourcing
- of shell testing libraries like (currently) 't/ax/test-init.sh' and
- 'defs', and to modularize and re-organize them better in the feature,
- with minimal churn.
- * runtest.in, Makefile.am (AM_TEST_ENVIRONMENT): Prepend $(abs_srcdir)/t/ax
- and $(abs_builddir)/t/ax (in that order) to PATH; do so avoiding repetition
- in the common case of non-VPATH builds.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- runtest: export $srcdir for use by the test scripts
- This is mostly a preparatory change in view of future ones. But it
- also make the behaviour of runtest more similar to that of the test
- harness used by "make check".
- * runtest.in: Export srcdir (was already defined to '@srcdir@').
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- gen-tests: $testdir/ax -> $testauxdir
- * gen-testsuite-part ($testauxdir): New, defined to "$testdir/ax".
- Use it throughout, for better encapsulation and less duplication.
- ($auxdir): Remove as unneeded.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- gen-tests: less hard-coding of 't' as the test directory
- This will make life easier for us in case we decide to rename the
- testsuite directory in the future (perhaps to something like 'tests',
- which is somewhat less cryptic than the current 't').
- * gen-testsuite-part ($testdir): New variable, used throughout instead
- of hard-coding the name of the test directory to 't'.
- All the script adjusted to make proper use of '$testdir'.
- ($auxdir): Move its definition earlier, for consistency with the one
- of '$testdir'.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- build: auxiliary testsuite files/scripts built by "make all"
- This will allow the developers to run a tests case by hand out of
- a newly extracted tarball simply doing:
- $ ./configure && make
- $ ./runtest t/the-test-case.sh
- while before this change one has to resort to:
- $ ./configure && make && make check TESTS=
- $ ./runtest t/the-test-case.sh
- or, with some non-GNU makes, even:
- $ ./configure && make && make check TESTS= AM_MAKEFLAGS="TESTS="
- $ ./runtest t/the-test-case.sh
- This come very handy sometimes, especially when doing one-shot
- debugging. Admittedly not a big deal, but one less friction in
- the build system is always nice.
- * Makefile.am (check_SCRIPTS, dist_check_DATA, nodist_check_DATA):
- Move their content to ...
- (noinst_SCRIPTS, dist_noinst_DATA, nodist_noinst_DATA): ... these
- variables.
- Adjust comments.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- perf tests: reorganize
- * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): Don't list ($perf_TESTS) in
- here anymore.
- * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add them explicitly.
- (perf): New target, run the performance tests and save the logs of
- the ones with unexpected results in the file 't/perf/test-suite.log',
- which is thus ...
- (PERF_TEST_SUITE_LOG): ... defined in this variable ...
- (CLEANFILES): ... and added to this.
- (test_subdirs): Remove 't/perf': the tests in there are no more
- listed in $(TESTS).
- * t/ax/test-init.sh: Don't explicitly skip "perf" test here.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- runtest: pass *all* the given shell options to the test invocation
- * runtest.in: Here. This didn't work previously because, in our
- option parsing loop, we were mistakenly redefining '$shell_opts'
- each time, instead of appending to it.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- runtest: correctly pass shell option also for TAP tests
- * runtest.in: Here. This required code refactoring not
- completely trivial.
- 2012-07-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- cosmetics: remove leftover comment fragment from runtest.in
- 2012-07-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: improve a comment
- * defs-static.in: Here, about the unsetting of CDPATH.
- 2012-07-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: remove obsolete comment
- * defs-static.in: Here: do not state anymore that this file should execute
- correctly with any system's /bin/sh shell, as this is not true anymore: the
- testsuite assumes a POSIX shell throughout these days.
- 2012-07-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- runtest: support option --shell, tell which shell should run the test
- * runtest.in: Here. The same effect could have been obtained by
- exporting AM_TEST_RUNNER_SHELL to the desired value, but the new
- API is simpler and requires less typing and less thinking.
- 2012-07-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- runtest: support passing options over to the shell
- * runtest.in: Here. Also, support '--help' to display a nice
- help screen.
- 2012-07-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: avoid spurious failure when running as root
- Fixes automake bug#12041.
- * t/primary-prefix-couples-force-valid.sh: If run as root, don't expect
- a "test -x" on a non-executable files to fail: for root, all files are
- executable (as well as readable and writable), and at least on Solaris
- 10 that causes "test -x" to succeed also on non-executable files.
- 2012-07-24 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>

- Merge branches 'tags-simplify-recursion' and 'color-tests-always'
- * tags-simplify-recursion:
- tags: unify recursion for tags targets with that of "usual" targets

- tests: better name for a couple of tests
- check: support colorized testsuite output by default
- 2012-07-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: avoid a spurious failure with Solaris /bin/sh
- The /bin/sh shell on Solaris is dumb enough not to set the exit
- status to 127 after the execution of a non-existing command is
- attempted:
- $ /bin/sh -c 'nonesuch'; echo stat = $?
- /bin/sh: nonesuch: not found
- stat = 1
- This means that the missing script, when run through that shell,
- cannot discriminate between a real failure of a maintainer tool
- and a failure due to its absence. This is not a big deal in
- practice (especially because all the 'missing' invocations in
- our Makefiles are done with $(SHELL), and that is almost surely
- set by configure to a proper POSIX shell), but was causing an
- annoying failure in our testsuite. Fix it.
- * t/missing3.sh: If 'missing' is run with a /bin/sh shell suffering
- from the just-described bug, skip the check that would spuriously
- fail due to that bug.
- 2012-07-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: fix buglet in t/missing3.sh
- * t/missing3.sh: Be sure to use 'run_cmd' also in the first invocation
- of 'missing', to ensure the stderr will actually be saved in a file we
- can later grep.

- self tests: avoid spurious failures on older bash
- Fixes automake bug#11909.
- * t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Remove or rework few checks for use

- of the need to use the 'Exit' function explicitly. Make the other
- existing checks stricter.
- 2012-07-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: remove t/parallel-tests-many.sh (fixes spurious failure)
- That test was checking for automake#7868 "parallel-tests and command-line
- length limit issue". That bug is still open, and the tests was xfailing.
- What concerns us is that the test was also causing an annoying problem.
- On Solaris 10, it produced a '.log' file with two overly-long lines (more
- than 1 million characters long!) and that was causing the test harness to
- experience spurious failures, with Solaris XPG4 awk complaining that:
- /usr/xpg4/bin/awk: line 0 (NR=734): Record too long (LIMIT: 19999 bytes)
- A little consideration shows that the bug#7868 checked by the culprit
- test cannot be solved "by accident", e.g., by another bug fix or some
- simple refactoring, so there is little added value in keeping the xfailing
- test for it, if this causes other problems (and we've seen it does).
- So we just remove the test. In case we ever manage to fix the bug in
- mainline automake, we can copy over the similar test(s) from Automake-NG,
- which has actually managed to fix the bug (and have simpler test cases
- for it).
- * t/parallel-tests-many.sh: Delete.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk (XFAIL_TESTS, handwritten_TESTS): Remove it.

- check: support colorized testsuite output by default
- Fixes automake bug#11855.
- With this change, we make the 'color-tests' option enabled by default.
- That option remains still silently accepted as a no-op, for backward
- compatibility.
- The developer of a package is still free to disable testsuite coloring on
- a per-makefile basis (by adding "AM_COLOR_TESTS = no" to the Makefile.am)
- or on a whole-project basis (by AC_SUBST'ing AM_COLOR_TESTS to "no" in
- configure.ac). But now the user will be able to request the testsuite
- output to be colorized, if he really wants to:
- # With GNU make:
- make AM_COLOR_TESTS=yes check
- # With non-GNU make:
- make AM_COLOR_TESTS=yes AM_MAKEFLAGS=AM_COLOR_TESTS=yes check
- * NEWS: Update.
- * doc/automake.texi: Updated, and some related minor reformatting
- and rewording.
- * automake.in (handle_tests): No need to pass the transform '%COLOR%'
- when processing "check.am".
- * lib/am/parallel-tests.am: Remove use of the '%?COLOR%' transform;
- just act as if it were unconditionally TRUE.
- * t/color.sh: No need to specify 'color-tests' in 'AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS'
- nor in 'AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE'.
- * t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise.
- * t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh: Likewise.
- * t/color2.sh: Likewise. Also, ensure that colorized testsuite output
- can be disabled by default by calling "AC_SUBST([AM_COLOR_TESTS], [no])".
- * t/tap-realtime.sh: Define 'AM_COLOR_TESTS' to "no" in Makefile.am, to
- avoid spurious colorization of the output due to the use of the 'expect'
- program.
- * t/color-tests-opt.sh: New test, check that the 'color-tests' option is
- still recognized as a no-op.
- * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add the new test.
- 2012-07-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tags: unify recursion for tags targets with that of "usual" targets
- This change has a side effect: now any failure of the 'tags', 'ctags',
- 'cscope' and 'cscopelist' targets in a subdirectory will cause the
- recursive command issued from the top directory to fail. We believe
- that this behavioural change is not only justified by the simplification
- this patch entails, but actually offers better semantics: ignoring
- failures by default is never a good idea, and with make, the user can
- anyway order the completion of commands in the face of possible failures
- with the '-k' option.
- * NEWS: Update.
- * automake.in (%required_targets): Add keys 'cscopelist-am', 'tags-am'
- and 'ctags-am'.
- (handle_tags): Greatly simplified, the major part of the handling of
- recursion for the 'tags', 'ctags' and 'cscopelist' now moved out to ...
- * lib/am/tags.am: ... this file, that has been adjusted and extended
- accordingly.
- * t/maken3.sh: Remove testing of the 'TAGS' target, that is now just
- an alias to 'tags'. Without this change, this test would spuriously
- fail.

- elisp: use suffix rules, get rid of 'elisp-comp' script (mostly a rewrite)
- Motivated by automake bug#11806.
- Traditionally, automake byte-compiled emacs-lisp '.el' files by invoking
- 'elisp-comp' on all of them in a bulk; this involved complex timestamping
- and file-locking logic. It was also brittle in any slightly-unusual
- setup, because 'elisp-comp' operated by copying all of the elisp files
- to be compiled into a temporary sub-directory and compiling them in there,
- the copying the resulting byte-compile files back in the build directory.
- This patch removes all of that juggling and chicanery in favour of
- defining a much simpler '.el.elc' suffix rule. Not only this is simpler,
- but it also interacts better with "make -jN" calls, which are becoming
- more and more common and useful on today's increasingly multicore systems.
- * Makefile.am (dist_script_DATA): Remove 'elisp-comp'.

- (handle_emacs_lisp): Do not require 'elisp-comp'.
- * doc/automake.texi: Remove references to 'elisp-comp'.

- m4: get rid of "# serial" lines
- The "#serial" lines are only considered by aclocal for the system-wide
- third-party '.m4' files, not for the Automake-provided ones. So they
- serve no real purpose in the Automake '.m4' files.
- In addition, now that we use git and topic branches, and that we are also
- writing the Automake-NG fork, the "#serial" lines are becoming more and
- more unreliable (e.g., different version of the same file in different
- branches can easily end up having the same serial numbers).
- So let's just nuke all the "#serial" lines. See also automake bug#11932.

- ylwrap: fix C++ support for Bison

- tests: don't use C instead of C++ compiler on case-insensitive platforms
- This change fixes automake bug#11893 and bug#10766.
- On at least Cygwin and Mac OS X 10.7, the file system where the system
- compilers are located can be case-insensitive, so that looking for a
- program named 'CC' might actually find the C compiler in /usr/bin/cc.
- Now, the Automake configure script looks for a C++ compiler named 'CC'
- before looking for more obvious names like c++ or g++ (that is done to
- increase testsuite "coverage in the wild", e.g., preferring, on Solaris,
- the Sun Studio C++ compiler /usr/bin/CC over the GNU C++ compiler).
- Since the checks done in AC_PROG_CXX are apparently not strict enough
- to rule out C compilers like those from GCC or Clang (which are smart
- enough to recognize if a file has a C++ extension, passing it to the
- C++ front end) the testsuite might end up using a C compiler where a
- C++ one is expected, with some subtle bad consequences.
- * configure.ac: Don't look for a C++ compiler named 'CC' if the
- "top-level" file system(s) (where /bin and /usr/bin are) are detected
- to be case-insensitive.

- distcheck: never make part of $(distdir) world-writable
- This fixes a locally-exploitable security vulnerability (CVE-2012-3386).
- In the 'distcheck' rule, we used to make the just-extracted (from
- the distribution tarball) $(distdir) directory and all its files and
- subdirectories read-only; then, in order to create the '_inst' and
- '_build' subdirectories in there (used by the rest of the recipe) we
- made the top-level $(distdir) *world-writable* for an instant (the
- time to create those two directories) before making it read-only
- again.
- Making that directory world-writable (albeit only briefly) introduced a
- locally exploitable race condition for those who run "make distcheck" with
- a non-restrictive umask (e.g., 022) in a directory that is accessible by
- others. A successful exploit would result in arbitrary code execution
- with the privileges of the user running "make distcheck" -- game over.
- Jim Meyering wrote a proof-of-concept script showing that such exploit is
- easily implemented.
- This issue is similar to the CVE-2009-4029 vulnerability:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2009-12/msg00012.html>
- * lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Don't make $(distdir) world-writable,
- not even for an instant; make it user-writable instead, which is enough.

- components of 't/ax/test-runner'. Because our build system operates
- in a non-recursive setup, this substitution is wrong; for example,
- the final 't/ax/test-runner' build in a VPATH builds where the source
- directory is ".." contains the line:
- : ${srcdir='../../../t/ax'}
- instead of the expected (and correct):
- : ${srcdir='../t/ax'}
- We solve the issue by building 't/ax/test-runner' with a Makefile
- recipe instead of config.status substitutions; this is already done
- for other testsuite-related files, like 'defs-static'.
- * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Don't build 't/ax/test-runner'

- * fix-pr11806:
- lisp: better support of VPATH builds
- 2012-07-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests init: don't automatically re-execute tests with a POSIX shell
- I've unwittingly broken support for that feature *again* in some of
- my recent testsuite tweaking. In this case, the re-execution code
- works correctly when the tests are executed with a POSIX shells, but
- breaks when they are invoked by an old-style Bourne shells (e.g.,
- /bin/sh on Solaris).
- It's time to face it: that feature is too much brittle, and too seldom
- used (because the Makefile takes care of running the tests with the
- correct shell anyway, so that a breakage is only experienced when
- running the tests by hand). It just don't remain working for long, not
- when we often touch the testsuite setup (which we are going to do again
- when we'll try to move part of our testsuite framework to Gnulib, or a
- similar project).
- So, instead of trying to be extra-smart and automatically re-execute the
- tests with the correct shell, we now offer a simple wrapper script that
- the user can employ to run the test scripts with the proper shell. And
- while we are at it, we write this wrapper to also deal with TAP tests in
- a better way, running them through the prove(1) utility, so that their
- results are correctly recognized and reported.
- * t/ax/test-runner.in: New file; the wrapper script we were talking about.
- * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Process it into 't/ax/test-runner'.
- * .gitignore: Add 't/ax/test-runner'.
- * defs: Remove code for automatic re-execution of the scripts with the
- correct shell. This file now just a very thin layer around 'defs-static'
- and 't/ax/test-init.sh'.
- * t/README: Adjust, and remove or fix some imprecise or outdated text in
- the process (like "... test scripts are written with portability in mind,
- so that they should run with any decent Bourne-compatible shell ..." ).

- 2012-07-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: ignore minor 'recheck' regression for BSD make
- It turns out that, with NetBSD 5.1 make and FreeBSD 9 make, running
- "make recheck" two times in a row quickly fails to correctly re-run
- the failed tests in the second run.
- That issue has been introduced likely introduced in commit
- 'v1.12.1-95-gd5443e4' of 20102-07-01, "parallel-tests: reimplement
- fix for bug#11791".
- Anyway, the use case that has been broken is not realistic (who is
- going to run "make recheck" two times in one second, without modifying
- any of the tests or the tested programs in the meantime?), so we believe
- the best fix is to simply work around the issue in the affected test
- cases, rather than risking to slow down or uglify the 'recheck' rule.

- * t/self-check-me.tap: Be sure to initialize '$am_create_testdir' to "no"

- the testsuite with 'keep_testdirs=yes', the following temporary director
- are left cluttering the top-level directory:
- ./012.dir
- ./abc..dir
- ./a.b.c.dir

- 2012-07-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: avoid spurious failures when @MKDIR_P@ points to "install-sh -d"
- * t/self-check-cleanup.tap: Several checks in this test were failing on
- NetBSD 5.1. That happened because on that system, '@MKDIR_P@' expands to
- an "install-sh -d" invocation that references the $(builddir), and the
- code trying to duplicate some of the Automake testsuite infrastructure
- in the test subdirectory of this self test wasn't smart enough to cater
- to that situation. Granted, we could tweak the test case once more to
- fix this Yet Another Spurious Failure, but at this point it has become
- clear that the extra coverage offered by this test is not worth all the
- hassle. Just remove the test. Since the testsuite is regularly run on
- several systems and with different setups, most issues with the testsuite
- framework will reveal themselves anyway; no actual need to unit-test them
- in our testsuite, if that's too tricky.

- Merge branch 'aclocal-trace-macrodir'
- * aclocal-trace-macrodir:
- aclocal: deprecate ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS, trace AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR instead
- 2012-07-03 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- aclocal: deprecate ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS, trace AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR instead
- Maintaining ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in the Makefile.am to pass extra flags
- to aclocal is (and have always been) quite of an hack. For example,
- autoreconf is forced to grep Makefile.am to honour those flags. But
- this is a bad obsolescent behaviour; in fact, the autotools have moved
- consistently in the past years from custom grepping of Makefile.am and
- configure.ac to tracing of m4 macro calls, which is more consistent,
- more reliable and more flexible.
- And when autoreconf is not used, the developer is forced to add *by hand*
- the flags specified by ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to the aclocal calls not triggered
- by make rebuild rules; here lie again more duplication and more chances
- for errors.
- Moreover, ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS has only two typical use cases:
- - to instruct aclocal to look for extra macro definition in a local
- directory (as with "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4"); and
- - to further instruct aclocal to copy in that local directory the
- required third-party .m4 files found in the system-wide directory
- (as with "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4 --install").
- The first use case can be better covered if aclocal can instead trace and
- honours call to the AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR autoconf macro; and the second
- use case shouldn't be considered really legitimate, as it is quite (and
- subtly) brittle (see automake bug#9037).
- Thus we now make aclocal trace AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR macro, and act
- accordingly. For backward compatibility, we continue to support the
- ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS special variable (although removing any mention of it
- from the documentation). Future Automake releases will likely start
- to warn about the use of that variable, and eventually remove support
- for it altogether.
- From a suggestion by Eric Blake.
- This is a much simplified (and IMHO saner) version of the patch series
- discussed in the threads:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2010-10/msg00045.html>
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2010-12/msg00156.html>

- (parse_arguments): Code for diagnosis of '--install' used without

- recursion: support user-defined recursive targets
- The user can now define his own recursive targets that recurse
- in the directories specified in $(SUBDIRS). That can be done by
- specifying the name of such targets in invocations of the new
- 'AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS' m4 macro.
- The API goes like this:
- $ cat configure.ac
- AC_INIT([pkg-name], [1.0]
- AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
- AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS([foo])
- AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile sub/Makefile])

- $ cat sub/Makefile.am
- foo-local:
- @echo This too will be run by a "make foo" issued either in
- @echo the 'sub/' directory or in the top-level directory.
- Like for the "default" recursive targets (e.g., 'all' and 'check'),

- depth-first fashion, and process '.' last (unless that is explicitly
- specified in $(SUBDIRS)).

- the '*-am', '*-local' and '*-recursive' targets associated with the
- user-specified user recursive targets.
- (generate_makefile): Call the new subroutine.
- * lib/am/subdirs.am (am__recursive_targets): New internal make variable,
- listing all of '$(RECURSIVE_TARGETS)', '$(RECURSIVE_CLEAN_TARGETS)' and
- '$(am__extra_recursive_targets)' together.
- (AM_RECURSIVE_TARGETS): Adjust the definition of this variable ...

- defined recursive targets are the same.
- * m4/extra-recurs.m4: New file, contain definition of new macro
- 'AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS' and '_AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS'.

- coverage: regression in texinfo "make mostlyclean" with $(SUBDIRS)
- After commit v1.12.1-91-g205c757 of 2012-06-20, "texi: require
- Texinfo >= 4.9, related enhancements", the presence of a Texinfo manual
- 'manual.texi' in a subdir (say 'doc/') of a package using a recursive
- make setup would cause "make distcheck" to fail, due to the presence of
- the 'manual.t2d/' directory created by texi2dvi. That directory would
- not be correctly removed because the 'mostlyclean' rule would run, from
- within the 'doc/' sub-directory, "rm -rf doc/manual.t2d", instead of
- the expected (and correct) "rm -rf manual.t2d".

- tests: don't skip if $(abs_builddir) or $(abs_srcdir) contain whitespace
- We used to explicitly skip libtool and gettext tests if the absolute
- path of the builddir or of the srcdir which Automake was configured
- with contained any whitespace (or other metacharacters).
- But several other tests would spuriously fail in such an unholy setup.
- To be precise, it would cause 61 'FAIL's and 42 'ERROR's in the whole
- Automake testsuite.
- The fact that, as of today, nobody has reported any failure of this kind
- means that (thankfully) nobody is building automake with $(abs_srcdir)
- or $(abs_builddir) mangled by whitespace. So, instead of trying to cater
- to such a broken setup consistently, we just drop the extra check in the
- libtool/gettext tests.
- In case someone will ever reports a failure due to extra whitespace in
- either $(abs_srcdir) or or $(abs_builddir), we will simply enhance our
- 'configure.ac' to bail out flatly and loudly at such a setup.

- tests: simpler workaround for shells losing the exit status in exit trap
- Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we
- can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated
- correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot
- dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required
- by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and
- /usr/xpg4/bin/sh).
- For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry
- about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the
- Autoconf manual:
- <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap>
- The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following
- shells:
- - Bash 4.1
- - Bash 3.2
- - Bash 3.0
- - Bash 2.05b
- - dash 0.5.5.1

- (_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we

- tests: automatic re-execution works for non-POSIX shells too
- Some inferior shells are too greedy in parsing their input. If a

- one of our test scripts, it would fail unconditionally, because it
- unexpectedly saw some (by it) unsupported constructs, notwithstanding
- such constructs being placed *after* the code implementing automatic
- test re-execution with a better shell. In conclusion, the shell
- bailed out like this:
- $ /bin/sh t/ar.sh
- $ t/ar.sh: syntax error at line 257: `is_newest_files=$' unexpected
- By moving all the potentially problematic code in a separate file, to
- be sourced only after the code for automatic re-execution with a better

- our test script is assured to be a POSIX-conforming shell, so we can
- use the more modern and flexible idioms and features that we couldn't

- * t/README: Suggest to use POSIX shell features liberally in test cases,

- missing: do not touch timestamps; only warn for out-of-date files
- Before this change, the missing script had a twofold role:
- - it warned the user if some required maintainer tools was missing,
- or too old;
- - in such a case, it tried to "fix" the timestamp of the files that
- should have been rebuilt by that tool (without actually updating
- the file contents, of course), to allow the build to continue.
- The second capability used to be quite useful in the days when most
- projects committed files generated by maintainer-only tools in their
- VCS repository (today the trend is not to keep such generated files
- VCS-committed anymore). In such a setup, the "timestamp-fixing"
- capability of 'missing' was quite useful, in that it allowed users
- lacking some required maintainer tool to build from a VCS checkout
- in the face of skewed timestamps (as could have been caused by
- "cvs update" or "git checkout").
- But then, when the automatic remake rules kicked in due to the
- generated files being *actually out-of-date* (e.g., because the user
- had modified 'configure.ac' but lacked a modern-enough autoconf to
- rebuild it), that behaviour of 'missing' caused the same problem that
- plagued AM_MAINTAINER_MODE; i.e., the user would get non-dependable
- builds and inconsistent statuses of the build tree -- changes to
- source files don't reflect on generated files, and this can be very
- confusing and cause hard-to-spot errors).
- So we now believe that the best approach to deal with timestamp-related
- issues is not to have 'missing' to "automagically" try to resolve
- them (with all the risk and brittleness entailed), but rather to
- suggest those projects still keeping generated files committed in their
- VCS to provide a proper (say) 'fix-timestamp.sh' script that touches
- the timestamp of the checked-out files, to ensure no spurious rebuild
- will be triggered. As a bonus, such a script can be more aware of the
- particularities, nooks and corner cases of a project, and thus more
- reliable than the old 'missing' script.
- An example of this approach is offered by GNU awk (release 4.0.1, Git
- tag 'gawk-4.0.1', commit b85b04e8). The GNU awk maintainers commit
- the Autotools-generated files (configure, Makefile.in, etc.) and other
- generated in the project's Git repository, but offer a useful script
- 'bootstrap.sh' that fixes the timestamps of those files, to ensure no
- useless remake is triggered in a freshly cloned repository:
- #! /bin/sh
- # bootstrap.sh --- touch relevant files to avoid out-of-date issues
- # in Git sandboxes
- touch aclocal.m4
- find awklib -type f -print | xargs touch
- sleep 1
- touch configure
- sleep 2
- touch configh.in
- sleep 1
- touch test/Maketests
- find . -name Makefile.in -print | xargs touch
- touch doc/*.info
- touch po/*.gmo
- touch po/stamp-po
- touch awkgram.c
- touch command.c
- touch version.c
- A similar, simplified script is also reported as an example in the
- manual.
- * NEWS: Update.
- * doc/automake.texi (Auxiliary Programs, maintainer-mod): Update.
- (CVS): Do not suggest that 'missing' can "automagically" fix botched
- timestamp due to a "cvs update"; this isn't true anymore. Give an
- example of a custom 'fix-timestamp.sh' script that can be used to
- obtain the same effect (in a slightly more laborious but also more
- explicit and less brittle way). Fix some minor typos and improper
- wordings while we are at it.
- * lib/missing: Basically rewritten to implement the new semantics.
- As a side effect (one of the several), the '--run' option is no more
- required nor recognized.
- * m4/missing.m4 (AM_MISSING_HAS_RUN): Enhance the test on '$MISSING'

- texi: require Texinfo >= 4.9, related enhancements
- We start passing the '--build-dir' option to the texi2dvi and texi2pdf
- invocations done in our Texinfo-related rules. The argument for this
- option will be specific for each info_TEXINFOS entry, to work around a
- texi2dvi bug that could otherwise cause racy failures in parallel make
- builds:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-06/msg00073.html>
- That bug seems already fixed in the development version of texi2dvi,
- though:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-06/msg00074.html>
- so the details of our '--build-dir' usage can be revisited once we can
- assume Texinfo 5.0 or later.
- Since the '--build-dir' options has been only supported since Texinfo
- 4.9, we lose compatibility with all older Texinfo versions.
- But we also get some real improvements.
- First, the '--build-dir' option implies the '--tidy' option; this, like
- the '--clean' option that we were formerly using, prevents cluttering of
- the build directory with all the TeX and Texinfo auxiliary files and
- build by-products, but, differently from '--clean', keeps them around
- for later re-runs to use; this shortens the rebuild times considerably.
- Second, the use of '--build-dir' also allows us to specify different
- build directories for the PDF and DVI output, preventing the rules
- building them from stomping on each other's feet when run in parallel.
- This is demonstrated by the test cases 'txinfo-no-clutter.sh' and
- 'txinfo33.sh', which before this change used to fail when run with
- MAKE="make -j4", but now succeed even in that case.
- * NEWS: Update.
- * lib/am/texibuilds.am: Do not try to avoid texi2dvi/texi2pdf option
- '-o'; it has been supported since Texinfo 4.1, and we now require
- Texinfo >= 4.9. Remove an obsolete comment. Modify calls to texi2dvi
- and texi2pdf to use the '--build-dir' option, so that TeX auxiliary
- files and build by-products for a 'foo.texi' input will be placed in
- a 'foo.t2d' directory (for texi2dvi) or in a 'foo.t2p' directory (for
- texi2pdf).
- * automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Greatly simplify the implementation,
- since we don't need anymore to keep track of the TeX auxiliary files and
- build by-products to clean. Drop the '@CLEAN_FILES' part of the return
- value.
- (handle_texinfo_helper): Adjust the 'scan_texinfo_file()' call to its
- new signature. Append the "work directories" now created by texi2dvi
- and texi2pdf invocation to the list of files/directories removed upon
- "make mostlyclean".
- * lib/am/texinfos.am: Update the cleaning rules (and comments)
- accordingly.

- * .gitignore: Update.

- docs: recursive make considered harmful
- In the documentation, we shouldn't confuse "packages using subdirectories"
- with "packages using recursive make invocations". A package can have a
- careful organization in subdirectories, make no (or almost no) use of make
- recursion (examples of such packages are GNU bison, GNU cppi, and Automake
- itself).
- In fact, make recursion should be used as seldom as possible, because it
- makes the build system more brittle and dependency declarations less
- faithful. See Peter Miller's article "Recursive Make Considered Harmful"
- for more a more in-depth discussion:
- http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/books/rmch/
- * doc/automake.texi (Directories): Clarify how a build system based on
- make recursion does. Observe that such a system, albeit being very
- widespread, has its own issues and drawbacks, and that one can have a
- non-recursive setup also for projects using complex directory layout.
- (Recursing subdirectories): Speak of "packages that use make recursion"
- rather than of "packages with subdirectories".

- subdirs: unify rules for "cleaning" and "normal" recursive targets
- Before this change, the recursive invocation of cleaning targets in
- the $(SUBDIRS) where done in inverse order, i.e., starting from the
- last $(SUBDIRS) entry and proceeding towards the first. According
- to the code comments, this was done ...
- ... in an attempt to alleviate a problem that can happen when
- dependencies are enabled. In this case, the .P file in one
- directory can depend on some automatically generated header
- in an earlier directory. Since the dependencies are required
- before any target is examined, make bombs.
- But this comment does not apply anymore to the current implementation
- of automatic dependency tracking: the '.Po' and '.Plo' files does not
- depend on any C header or source file, ever!
- So it seems that the distinction between "normal" and "cleaning"
- recursive targets is a stale leftover of an older implementation of
- the automatic dependency tracking. In fact, the Automake History
- manual seems to confirm this suspect; the section "First Take on
- Dependency Tracking" reads:
- Because each .P file was a dependency of Makefile, this meant
- that dependency tracking was done eagerly by make. For instance,
- "make clean" would cause all the dependency files to be updated,
- and then immediately removed. This eagerness also caused problems
- with some configurations; if a certain source file could not be
- compiled on a given architecture for some reason, dependency
- tracking would fail, aborting the entire build.
- and the following section "Dependencies As Side Effects" reads:
- In this approach, the .P files were included using the -include
- command, which let us create these files lazily. This avoided
- the "make clean" problem.
- So the distinction between "normal" and "cleaning" recursive targets
- has likely been obsolete since by then already. We can thus remove
- such distinction, thus reducing some complications and duplication in
- our rules. Doing so, the whole testsuite still passes (both with GCC
- and Sun C 5.9), even the test 'c-demo.sh', which, among the other
- things, exercise the setup described in the obsolete code comment
- referenced above.
- Finally, note that we still keep '$(RECURSIVE_CLEAN_TARGETS)' and
- '$(RECURSIVE_TARGETS)' as two distinct variables, to ensure a better
- backward-compatibility for any user-defined rules that happen to use
- those variables.

- subdir-objects: improve "make mostlyclean" efficiency and flexibility
- Fixes automake bug#10697.
- Before this change, the generated Makefile issued one 'rm' invocation
- for each subdir object file. Not only was this very inefficient when
- there were several such files, but it also caused stale object files
- to be left behind when a source file was renamed or removed.
- * automake.in (handle_single_transform): When a subdir object is seen,

- maint: deprecate 'configure.in' as autoconf input
- It has been years since that has been deprecated in the documentation,
- in favour of 'configure.ac':
- Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name configure.in, which
- is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to process this file is not
- described by its extension), and introduces a slight confusion with
- config.h.in and so on (for which '.in' means "to be processed by
- configure"). Using configure.ac is now preferred.
- It's now time to start giving runtime warning about the use of
- 'configure.in', so that support for it can be removed in future
- versions of autoconf/automake.
- See also, in the Autoconf repository, commit 'v2.69-4-g560f16b' of
- 2012-05-23, "general: deprecate 'configure.in' as autoconf input".

- perf: beginning of a performance testsuite
- Some tests in the Automake testsuite already aims only at verifying
- the performance, rather than the correctness, of some operations.
- Still, they are somewhat shoehorned and forced into the PASS/FAIL
- framework (say, with the 'ulimit' shell builtin used to verify some
- operation doesn't take up too much time or memory), but that is
- conceptually a stretch, and has already caused problems in practice
- (see automake bug#11512 for an example).
- So we start moving the "performance tests" out of the testsuite proper,
- and make them run only "on demand" (when the user exports the variable
- 'AM_TESTSUITE_PERF' to "yes"). Ideally, we should provide those tests
- with a custom runner/driver that measures and displays the relevant
- performance information, but doing that correctly and with the right
- APIs is definitely more difficult, so we leave it for a later step
- (an hope we'll take such a step eventually).

- ylwrap: preserve subdirectories in "#line" munging
- If Automake is used in non-recursive mode and one of the inputs is a
- yacc file, for example, "src/grammar.y", ylwrap will remove too many
- directories from the output file when it adjusts the paths in it.
- This results in #line directives referring to "grammar.y" instead of
- "src/grammar.y".
- This is a result of $input_rx simply taking all the directory
- components of the absolute input path and removing them.
- One solution is to store the path passed to ylwrap and replace
- $input_rx with it. This is what we do.
- Suggestion and initial patch (without tests) by Nikolai Weibull:

- The comments in 'lib/autoconf/autoconf.m4' from Autoconf 2.69 read:
- We discourage the use of the non prefixed macro names: M4sugar maps
- all the builtins into 'm4_'. Autoconf has been converted to these
- names too. But users may still depend upon these, so reestablish
- them.
- Alas, in our init.m4 files, we were still using m4 builtins without

- version that introduced support for Objective C++). Since such an Autoconf
- version is two and half years old now (and will likely be almost three

- tests: use append mode to capture parallel make output
- This should fix the spurious failure reported in automake bug#11413.
- This is due to the fact that the redirected output of parallel make
- can racily loose lines. For example, if GNU make (3.82) is run on
- a Makefile like this:
- all = 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
- default: $(all)
- $(all):
- @sleep 0.$$(($RANDOM % 10)); echo $@
- and has its standard output redirected in overwrite-mode to a regular
- file, it looses a line of that output every 15 runs or so on a Fedora
- 17 system with 64 ppc64 cores and Linux 3.3.1. Redirection in append
- mode does not suffer of this problem.
- See also similar commit 'Release-1-10-280-g6426999' of 2009-03-10,

- silent rules: support for them is always active now
- Before this change, support for silent rules was optional and activated
- only if the 'silent-rules' option was specified.
- The rationale behind that behaviour was that the silent-rules machinery
- originally only worked with make implementations supporting nested
- variables expansions, which isn't (or wasn't) a POSIX-specified features;
- so that packages wanting to be "extra-portable" couldn't use the
- silent-rules machinery at all.
- But after Paul Eggert's commit 'v1.11-598-g8493499' of 25-12-2011,
- "silent-rules: fallback for makes without nested vars" (motivated
- by automake bugs #9928 and #10237), Makefiles generated when the
- 'silent-rules' option is enabled can work also with those make
- implementations that don't support nested variables expansion (albeit
- the configure-time selected verbosity cannot be overridden at make
- runtime in such case).
- In light of that, and since silent rules are disabled by default even
- when the 'silent-rules' option is given (unless the developer explicitly
- makes them enabled by default be calling "AM_SILENT_RULES([yes])" in
- configure.ac), we can now have the support for silent rules always
- enabled.
- The 'silent-rules' option will thus become a no-op, but will reaming a
- valid option for the time being, for better backward-compatibility.
- A collateral effect of this change is that the use of the 'silent-rules'
- option will not anymore automatically disable the warnings in the
- 'portability-recursive' category.
- The present change is basically a backport of the Automake-NG commit
- 'v1.11d-75-g61ca923' of 19-04-2012, "[ng] silent rules: support for
- them is always active now". Stemmed by this thread on the Automake-NG
- list:

- * automake.in: Enable silent-rules machinery unconditionally. Reword
- some comments. Do not switch off warnings in the category
- 'portability-recursive' anymore if the 'silent-rules' option is
- given.
- * m4/init.m4: Call 'AC_REQUIRE' on 'AM_SILENT_RULES' unconditionally.
- * lib/Automake/Options.pm: Recognize 'silent-rules' as a dummy option.

- color-tests: coloring can be forced on non-ANSI terminals as well
- Before this change, colorization of testsuite output was suppressed
- whenever the terminal was recognized to be a "dumb" one, incapable
- of handling ANSI coloring (i.e., when the environment variable TERM
- had a value of "dumb"). This happened even when the AM_COLOR_TESTS
- variable was set to a value of "always".
- Such a behaviour was suboptimal and slightly confusing; in fact, if
- a user wants to force coloring of testsuite output that is being
- redirected to a regular file, he should be able to do so even if his
- terminal is not capable of handling ANSI colors -- in fact, such
- terminal wouldn't be involved with the testsuite output in any way,
- so why should it be allowed to influence it?
- Thus, we now enable coloring of test output whenever AM_COLOR_TESTS
- is set to "always", irrespective of the value of the TERM environment
- variable.
- * NEWS: Update.

- of testsuite output whenever AM_COLOR_TESTS has the value of "always".
- * t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh: Export the TERM environment variable to

- fixup: avoid unconditional re-bootstrapping on "make dist"
- Since our 'bootstrap' script is distributed, the 'distdir' target depends
- on it. But in our GNUmakefile, we also have a 'bootstrap' target declared
- .PHONY, which when called re-bootstrap the Automake distribution. Thus,
- whenever we run "make dist", GNU make sees it must remake the 'bootstrap'
- target (as it is a dependency of the 'distdir' target), and thus ends up
- re-bootstrapping all the package (because of the .PHONY 'bootstrap' target
- in GNUmakefile).
- We fix this issue by renaming our bootstrap script to 'bootstrap.sh'.

- * configure.ac (RELEASE_YEAR): New AC_SUBST'd variable, should hold

- * automake.in, aclocal.in: Use '$RELEASE_YEAR' (which will be

- year. This should ensure the copyright range in the version

- bootstrap: add convenience make target
- Dependencies in the Automake build system are not completely specified
- (see for example the commit log of recent commit 'v1.12-10-gab14841',
- "build: avoid too greedy rebuilds in the testsuite"). In fact, some of
- them cannot even be; for example, Makefile is generated at configure
- time from Makefile.in, which should be regenerated by our bleeding-edge
- automake script, which is generated by out Makefile -- specifying the
- complete chain of dependencies here would bring to a circular dependency
- issue.
- For this reason, before testing or deploying a change, we are often
- forced to perform a full re-bootstrap of the Automake package, to ensure
- all our files are actually up-to-date. Until now, this has to be done
- manually, thus causing wasted keystrokes and more possibilities of error.
- With this change, we introduce a new 'bootstrap' make target to
- automatize all the (easy) steps of this re-bootstrapping (plus some
- minor bells & whistles since we are at it).
- * GNUmakefile: Rewrite to allow an easy bootstrapping and clean rebuild
- of the whole package, in particular with the help of ...
- (bootstrap): ... this new target.

- maint: don't use "union" merge driver for NEWS anymore
- The use of the "union" merge driver to avoid conflicts in NEWS has
- proven to be problematic, as it often silently produced mis-merges
- (instead of spurious conflicts, but a spurious conflict is better
- than a mis-merge). Also, our new branching policy (see automake
- bug#11153 for a description) should greatly mitigate the problem of
- merge conflicts in NEWS. For further discussion, see:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-04/msg00148.html>
- 2012-04-26 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- build: avoid too greedy rebuilds in the testsuite
- The autogenerated makefile fragment 't/testsuite-part.am' used to depend
- on the list of *all* the hand-written files. This was technically correct,
- since that makefile fragment was (and still is) generated by the script
- 'gen-testsuite-part', which scans all the hand-written files to detect
- implicit dependencies and to decide for which tests a further wrapper test
- should be generated.
- However, the presence of such a dependency implied that, whenever *any*
- test case was modified (no matter how slightly), the 't/testsuite-part.am'
- file was rebuilt, and since that is included by our 'Makefile.am', the
- 'Makefile.in' file was rebuilt as well by automake. In order to do so,
- automake scanned our 'configure.ac' file, which requires the latest
- Autoconf version (2.69 at the time of writing), and the casual user can
- easily lack that on his machine (and that should be allowed, as automake
- currently supports any autoconf version >= 2.62).
- The described situation could hinder in-field testing or debugging by
- users (even experienced ones) that are not automake developers; see for
- example automake bug#11347.
- So we drop the explicit dependency of 't/testsuite-part.am' on the
- hand-written test cases. (As an aside, note that this has already
- been done in Automake-NG, albeit for other reasons; see the commit
- 'v1.11b-129-g1690aca' of 2012-04-23, "[ng] build: define $(TESTS)
- through a wildcard").
- This is not a serious regression in the faithfulness of the Automake
- build systems, since it unfortunately already had several undeclared
- dependencies; e.g., 'Makefile.in' should depend on the automake script,
- and 'aclocal.m4' should depend on the aclocal script (but this isn't
- possible, as it would mean that distributed files depend on ones generated
- at make time). Similarly, 'Makefile.in' should depend on some of the
- 'lib/am/*.am' files, but does not.
- Currently, the workaround to get a faithful and correct rebuild is to run
- ./bootstrap && ./config.status --recheck && make clean all
- and the present commit does not change that.
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/t/testsuite-part.am): Don't depend on
- 't/list-of-tests.mk' nor on '$(handwritten_TESTS)' anymore.
- ($(generated_TESTS)): Likewise, and don't depend on 'Makefile.am'
- either.

- The <cstdio> header from Xcode-4.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.7.3 declares a 'isatty'
- function with C++ linkage, that conflicts with our dummy definition of the
- same function, which in turn is required to work around the absence of the
- unistd.h header on MinGW (see commit 'v1.11-2138-gfeea090' of 11-04-2012).

- tests: cater to systems installing libs in /lib64
- See automake bug#11302.
- On at least OpenSUSE 12.1, "make install" will install libraries in
- the '${prefix}/lib64' directory by default. This is due to the
- $CONFIG_SITE set by /etc/profile.d/site.sh, which sets a libdir

- is generating 64-bit code. This behaviour was causing some spurious

- * t/lex-libobj.sh: We used to pass LEXLIB='-L /lib' to the ./configure

- But the linker on MacOS X 10.5 apparently chokes on that:
- cc -g -O2 -o foo foo.o -L /lib yywrap.o
- ld: file not found: /lib
- collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
- So, we now instead pass LEXLIB=' ', which being non-empty is enough
- to prevent the search of a "lex library". And since we are at it,
- enhance comments on this non-obvious usage.

- * m4/vala.m4 (AM_PROG_VALAC): Exit with status 77, rather than 1, if

- docs: remove obsolete references to Autoconf 2.13
- Autoconf 2.13 is definitely obsolete today, so giving hints or caveats
- about it in the Automake documentation is not only obsolescent, but
- also counter-productive, as it suggests that autoconf 2.13 is still
- relevant.
- * doc/automake.texi: Adjust. Related rewordings. Since we are at it,
- prefer using a more modern autoconf version number (2.68 instead of 2.57)
- in an example showing how to correctly use 'AC_PREREQ' in third-party
- .m4 files.

- parallel-tests: 'recheck' must depend on 'all'
- Fixes automake bug#11252.
- When a developer experience one or more failures in the testsuite, a good
- workflow is for him to modify its program's sources to fix the bug thus
- revealed, run "make recheck" to verify that the change has indeed solved
- the testsuite failures previously experienced, and then run "make check"
- to verify that the change has not introduced any new failure or regression.
- Unfortunately, this apparently natural workflow couldn't have worked until
- now, since the Automake-provided 'recheck' target (which didn't depend on
- 'all') wouldn't have causes the program to be recompiled, and the failed
- tests would have thus been run with the older, buggy version of the
- program, failing the same way as before.

- build: generate doc/*.1 files; include help2man
- This change is required to avoid making a distributed file depend
- on a generated (non-distributed) one. The preceding change
- introduced one such dependency, with the distributed doc/*.1
- depending on the generated aclocal and automake files. Here,
- we avoid the problem by generating the doc/*.1 files rather than
- distributing them.
- * doc/help2man: New file, version 1.37.1.
- * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add doc/help2man.
- (man1_MANS): Rename from $(dist_man1_MANS). Remove $(srcdir) prefix.
- (CLEANFILES): Add these files here, rather than to
- $(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES), since we are no longer distributing them.
- (update_mans): Use doc/help2man, not $(HELP2MAN).
- * configure.ac: Don't test for help2man, now that we bundle it.
- 2012-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
- build: avoid parallel build failures
- A parallel build would fail when two concurrent sub-make processes
- tried to build lib/Automake/Config.pm. The loser would complain that
- grep: lib/Automake/Config.pm-t: No such file or directory
- chmod: cannot access `lib/Automake/Config.pm-t': No such file or\
- directory
- make[1]: *** [lib/Automake/Config.pm] Error 1
- * Makefile.am (update_mans): Don't build lib/Automake/Config.pm here.
- Instead, depend on it from the two rules that use it:
- ($(srcdir)/doc/aclocal-$(APIVERSION).1): Depend on it.
- ($(srcdir)/doc/automake-$(APIVERSION).1): Likewise.
- [ Note that technically, the above is incorrect, since it makes those
- distributed doc/*.1 files depend on generated aclocal and automake.
- That problem is addressed by the following commit. ]
- However, that was not enough, since even then, a parallel build
- would still fail, now with this:
- help2man: can't get `--help' info from automake-1.11a
- Try `--no-discard-stderr' if option outputs to stderr
- make: *** [doc/automake-1.11a.1] Error 1
- a subsequent "make -j3" would create the missing file.
- That was because help2man would invoke t/wrap/aclocal.in and
- t/wrap/automake.in, each of which would require aclocal and
- automake, yet those two files weren't guaranteed to be created.
- Add explicit dependencies:
- ($(srcdir)/doc/aclocal-$(APIVERSION).1): Depend on aclocal.
- ($(srcdir)/doc/automake-$(APIVERSION).1): Depend on automake.

- maintcheck: avoid yet more spurious failures (1)
- The 'sc_tests_makefile_variable_order' maintainer check is too

- vala tests: avoid spurious failure with older GObject
- * t/vala2.sh: In the 'PKG_CHECK_MODULES' call in 'configure.ac',

- order for the test to pass.
- * t/vala3.sh: Likewise.
- * t/vala5.sh: Likewise. Also, skip the test instead of failing

- tests: rename 'tests/' => 't/', '*.test' => '*.sh'
- When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive
- make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be
- prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase
- the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of
- exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most
- notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information.
- Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test'
- script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test'
- will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters.

- maint: remove most recursion in automake's own build system
- Recursive make-based build systems tend to be slower, more fragile
- and less faithful than "flat" ones. See Peter Miller's article
- "Recursive Make Considered Harmful" for more a more in-depth
- discussion:
- <http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/books/rmch/>
- While in the case of automake this isn't a big problem (given the
- small size of its build systems), it still creates occasional
- glitches and annoyances.
- With this change, the use of recursion in Automake's own build
- system is eliminated *but for the testsuite*. Converting that
- is a little more tricky, and better left for a later change (or
- series of changes).

- texinfo: warn about future use of '--tidy'
- Starting from the next major release of Automake (likely 1.13) we
- want to start passing the '--tidy' option to texi2dvi and texi2pdf
- invocations, so that auxiliary TeX-generated files can be kept
- around (thus speeding up rebuilding of DVI and PDF output) without
- cluttering the build directory too much.
- Since the '--tidy' option was introduced in Texinfo 4.9 (as
- documented in the Texinfo distribution's NEWS file), this also
- means that Makefiles generated by future Automake versions will
- require at least that version of Texinfo (at the time of writing
- four years and nine months old).
- The users should be warned about the planned behavioral change
- and the new version requirement it will entail.
- See also automake bug#11146.
- * NEWS (Planned Backward Incompatibilities): Add entry about use
- of the '--tidy' option and requirement of Texinfo 4.9.
- 2012-04-04 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- texinfo: don't clutter the builddir when using modern texi2dvi
- In modern versions of texi2dvi (at least since version 1.135, which
- comes with Texinfo 4.13) the '-o' option does not imply anymore the
- '--clean' option. As a consequence, lots of TeX-generated auxiliary
- files are now left in the build directory by the 'pdf', 'ps' and
- 'dvi' rules.
- This is especially annoying with non-recursive setups having the
- '.texi' files in a subdirectory, as in:
- info_TEXINFOS = doc/foo.texi
- In this case, the stray auxiliary files are left in the top build
- directory (since TeX is run from there). See for example:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-04/msg00002.html>
- See also automake bug#11146.

- acinstall: remove, it has never been really used
- Accordingly to the git history (see for example the 'README-alpha'
- in commit 'Release-1-1e-39-g9beb4ec' of 06-10-1996), the 'acinstall'
- script should have been used to install m4 files for aclocal. The
- comments in this script report that "... A script is needed to do
- this because we want to do serial-number checking; newer versions
- of macro files should always be preferred".
- But the 'acinstall' script has never been really used: for example,
- the entry "actually use acinstall program" was removed (unfixed)
- from the TODO file in commit 'Release-1-1k-12-g1201405' of
- 08-12-1996, and the only citation of 'acinstall' in the manual was
- removed in commit 'Release-1-1l-37-g128c3d7' of 19-03-1997, and
- never added back. In addition, the last non-trivial edit to the
- script (that is, besides updates to the copyright notice) dates
- back to 1996.
- More importantly, now that aclocal supports the ACLOCAL_PATH
- environment variable, installing m4 files directly in the
- system-wide acdir is discouraged, and better left only to
- distros' package managers (which already have their own way to
- do so, with which third-party build systems should not directly
- meddle).
- So we just remove the 'acinstall' script.

- depcomp: support tcc (Tiny C Compiler)
- This change fixes automake bug#11007.
- Since git commit 0c928da9 of 21-06-2010, "tcc: Draft suppoprt for
- -MD/-MF options" (sic, with typo in summary line), tcc has supported
- automatic dependency generation with a command-line interface
- similar to what old (pre-8.0) Intel compilers did. This caused
- Automake-generated code for automatic dependency tracking to
- recognize tcc dependency style as "icc". However, the format of
- the dependency files generated by tcc is apparently different enough
- from that of icc to cause spurious failures in the post-processing
- operated by our 'depcomp' script on such files.
- The failure was exposed with the development version of tcc 0.9.26
- (as installed with debian package "tcc 0.9.26~git20120104.83d") by
- test case 'depcomp-auto.tap' (available only in the master branch).
- * lib/depcomp (icc): Cater to tcc as well. Update comments
- accordingly.
- * NEWS: Update.
- 2012-03-27 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: workaround for automatic linker determination and conditionals
- See automake bug#11089.
- Automake is not very smart in automatically determining the command
- to be used to link a program whose source files' languages are
- conditionally defined. For example, an input like:
- if HAVE_CXX
- foo_SOURCES = more.c++
- else
- foo_SOURCES = less.c
- endif
- will cause the build rules for 'foo' to *unconditionally* use the
- C++ compiler for linking, even when the 'HAVE_CXX' conditional
- evaluates to false (which might mean that no C++ compiler is
- available).
- This behaviour is not really correct, but it's easy enough to work
- around, and it's only relevant for fringe use cases (at best). So
- let's just test that the workaround really works.

- maint: update TODO file
- We don't have to make creation of $(foodir) conditional when
- foo_PRIMARY is conditionally defined; that has been solved in
- a more sweeping way by commit v1.11-759-g368f1c4 of March 18,
- which solved bug#11030 and bug#10997.
- The "check" target already depends on the "all" target.
- Remove comment "investigate problems with conditionally defined
- libraries"; it is aimed at automake 1.5 (!) and too terse and old
- to be useful now.
- Remove the 12 years old suggestion that "distcheck should make sure
- that each file that uses _() is listed in POTFILES.in"; this is
- handled by gnulib-provided syntax check 'sc_po_check' already today.
- Don't tell to "Run automake before libtool"; automake does not
- automatically run libtool anymore today.
- Remove hint about the possibility to "rewrite automake in guile" or
- "add a GUI": we are not going to do so.
- The automatic de-ANSI-fication feature has already been remove, so
- no need to suggest its potential removal in the future.
- Remove reference to a prospective "cvs" option that could add some
- cvs-specific rules. First of all, CVS is falling out of use today.
- Secondly, and most to the point, instead of guessing which VCS
- is going to be most popular and try to hack support for it into
- automake, we should leave it to developer-specific makefile
- fragments offered by projects like Gnulib to provide such rules
- (they are already doing so with succcess).
- About DOS support: it should actually be dropped, not extended.
- Add link about Karl Berry's proposal of preferring HTML over Info
- documentation installed in the local system:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/texinfo-devel/2012-03/msg00018.html>
- Remove items about "beautification" of output Makefile.in; they
- are pretty obvious, and mostly noise (after all, everybody prefers
- clean output where possible). Leave it to any developer doing
- future refactorings to find out low-hanging and/or high-impact
- optimizations and beatifications of the generated Makefiles.
- Remove item about internationalization: we're not going to

- or configure.in when giving error, in order to help very large

- maint: move definition of XFAIL_TESTS near TESTS
- Actually, after the trivial merge conflicts have been solved, what
- this change actually does is moving the definition of XFAIL_TESTS
- near that of handwritten_TESTS. But the rationale is the same of
- that of commit 'v1.11-761-gabf40ce' (being merged here), and still

- maint: move definition of XFAIL_TESTS near TESTS
- The $(TESTS) variable is defined in file 'tests/list-of-tests.mk',
- while the $(XFAIL_TESTS) variable is defined in 'tests/Makefile.am'.
- This means that when a new xfailing test is to be added, two files
- must be touched; this is suboptimal and slightly confusing.

- install: don't create empty dirs when an empty 'foo_PRIMARY' is used
- Fixes automake bug#11030 and bug#10997.
- An empty declaration of "foo_PRIMARY" in a Makefile.am used to
- cause the generated install rules to create the directory $(foodir)
- anyway, even if nothing was to be installed there.
- While this could be seen as a convenient way to create a $(foodir)
- directory upon "make install" (respecting $(DESTDIR) settings and
- such), it also caused problems with conditionals; for example, an
- input of:
- if FALSE
- pgkdata_DATA = something
- endif
- caused the generated install rules to unconditionally create the
- $(pkgdatadir) directory (see automake bug#10997).
- Also, a user wanting to create an empty directory upon installation
- can easily do so with a custom install hook, as in:
- installdirs-local:
- $(MKDIR_P) $(DESTDIR)$(foodir)
- install-data-hook: installdirs-local
- On the other hand, the old behavior of "always create $(foodir),
- even if 'foo_PRIMARY' is empty" was harder and more tricky to
- override.
- Thus, from now on, an empty declaration of "foo_PRIMARY" will not
- cause the directory $(foodir) to be created upon "make install"
- anymore.

- tests: fix spurious failure with older m4
- Reported by Panther Martin in automake bug#10866, diagnosed by
- Panther Martin and Eric Blake.
- Older GNU m4 versions (e.g., 1.4.6) did error reporting at the end

- a spurious testsuite failure due to an off-by-one error in the line
- number reported in an aclocal diagnostic.

- tests: avoid spurious failures in get-sysconf.test
- This change fixes the last bit of automake bug#10866.
- * tests/get-sysconf.test: When Homebrew spawns a build, even if
- from a project's VCS, it stages the files in a new temporary
- directory, instead of building directly from a VCS checkout.
- This behaviour was causing a spurious failure in this test, which
- expected to find either a ChangeLog file or a .git directory in
- the source directory (the former happening when the test was run
- from a distribution tarball, the latter when it was run from a
- git checkout). The Homebrew issue shows that these expectations
- are not truly warranted, so relax the test to just give a warning,
- not a failure, in case they do not hold. Since we are at it, fix
- an unrelated weakness in the displaying of the git log, which
- could have failed when the builddir was not a subdirectory of the
- srcdir.

- Merge branch 'msvc' into maint
- This merge remedies the confusing situation that some changes
- destined for both the master branch and the release branch (a.k.a.
- branch-1.11) currently needs to be made on the non-obvious msvc
- branch and not on the more natural maint branch. This has caused
- a seemingly endless string of less than optimal commits.
- The reason for the confusion stems from the fact that the changes made
- on the msvc branch became too radical and was considered only suitable
- for the master branch, and was thus written in a form suitable for
- master and then merged there. Later, the msvc branch was merged
- directly into branch-1.11, in order to rush the new features to the
- market and to keep the released scripts (lib/ar-lib, lib/compile and
- lib/depcomp) consistent with those on the master branch. However,
- some changes had to be made to the features added by the msvc branch
- in order for them to fit the requirements of branch-1.11, notably that
- the warnings issued in the extra-portability class cannot be enabled
- by -Wall in the 1.11.x maintenance releases.
- In retrospect, it would have been better to not merge msvc directly
- into branch-1.11, but instead do it via the maint branch (followed up
- with a dummy merge from maint into master) the moment it was decided
- that the msvc changes should make it into branch-1.11.
- All in all, this merge is going to affect neither the master branch
- nor branch-1.11, since it is followed up with dummy merges masking all
- changes. The merge is made to maintain the sanity of the poor
- developers, who wishes to once again have a working maint branch.

- self checks: relax tests on cleanup
- Some find(1) implementations have problems operating recursively on
- directories having subdirectories with null permissions, even when
- the permissions of such subdirectory should be fixed by find before
- it descends into them; for example, with this setup:
- % mkdir a a/b
- % chmod 000 a/b
- a command like this:
- % find a -type d ! -perm -700 -exec chmod u+rwx '{}' ';'
- fails with this diagnostic on MacOS X 10.7:
- find: a/b: Permission denied
- and with this diagnostic on Solaris 10:
- find: cannot read dir a/b: Permission denied
- The problem is that our self checks were simply demanding too much
- from our cleanup trap: our tests never use subdirectories with null
- permissions, so it doesn't matter if the cleanup trap fails to
- handle those. Just relax the self checks to avoid such useless
- testsuite noise.
- * tests/self-check-cleanup.tap: Only try directories missing
- write permissions, not with null permission. That should be
- enough for our usages.

- which briefly explains its purpose and warn that its existence
- is required by the normal aclocal functioning.

- tests: looks for GNU compilers at configure time
- This way, if the generic C compiler determined configure time is
- recognized to be the GNU C compiler, we can reuse it instead of
- looking for a compiler named "gcc" (over and over again) in the
- test scripts requiring the GNU C compiler. Ditto for the C++,
- Fortran, and Fortran 77 compilers.
- This change will improve coverage by allowing us to more easily
- use non-default GNU compilers throughout the testsuite.
- And as a bonus, this change also removes a weakness from our
- testsuite that could cause spurious failures when flags passed
- to the generic compilers were erroneously reused for the GNU
- compilers; see automake bug#10859.
- * configure.ac: Look for the GNU compilers explicitly. Improve
- some configure output and diagnostic since we are at it.

- spy: "rm -f" and "rm -rf" without args are portable
- According to recent testing by Eric Blake, it seems that all
- non-museum rm(1) implementations don't complain if called without
- file operands, *if* the '-f' option is used. This behaviour will
- likely be mandated by future versions of the POSIX standard as
- well.
- We'd like to start assuming this rm(1) behaviour in future Automake
- releases, in order to simplify some automake-provided cleanup rules.
- So, for the moment, we add a new "spy" test in our test suite, to
- try ensuring that all the rm(1) implementation we encounter "in the

- For more references, see this discussion on the bug-autoconf list:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2012-02/msg00002.html>
- which sprang from coreutils bug#10819:
- <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10819>
- and brought to the POSIX issue#542:
- <http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=542>
- which has been accepted and will ensure that future version of the
- POSIX standards will mandate that 'rm' shouldn't complain if called
- without file operands, when the '-f' option is in use.

- tests: avoid spurious failures under "make distcheck"
- * tests/tap-setup.sh: Pass also '-f' option to 'cp' invocations,
- so that files that have already been copied in without write
- permissions will still be overwritten where needed, instead of
- causing a spurious testsuite failure. Issue seen when the
- testsuite is run under "distcheck".
- * tests/defs (get_shell_script): Remove target file before

- and "make recheck" output to match the new format of the testsuite
- summary. Remove redundant 'set -e' call since we are at it.
- 2012-02-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: prefer 'configure.ac' over 'configure.in'
- With this change, our testsuite now uses 'configure.ac' as the
- name for the typical autoconf input, instead of the obsolescent
- 'configure.in' (which has been deprecated for several years, at
- least since autoconf 2.50).
- Most of the test cases changed by this commit have been
- automatically modified with this sed command (using GNU
- sed):
- sed -i 's/\<configure\(\\\?\)\.in\>/configure\1.ac/g'
- * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_configure_in): New syntax check.
- (syntax_check_rules): Add it.
- * tests/defs: Create stub for autoconf input in 'configure.ac',
- not in 'configure.in'. Adjust comments.
- ($AUTOCONF, $AUTOHEADER, $AUTORECONF): Remove workaround for the
- infamous debian autoconf wrapper: we don't need such workaround
- anymore now that we name our autoconf input as 'configure.ac'.

- manually recurse into 'tests/'. In fact, such a manual recursion
- was causing the testsuite to be run twice by "make installcheck".

- automake: new option 'serial-tests'
- Currently, automake offers a 'parallel-tests' option to enable the
- use of the parallel testsuite harness in the generated Makefiles,
- but no option to explicitly state the intention of using the older
- serial testsuite driver (which is currently the default).
- This makes the parallel test harness seems like a second-class
- citizen (while actually it should be the other way around); more
- importantly, it will prevent us from making the parallel harness
- be the default one in future automake versions, since the users
- of the serial harness would then have no way to instruct automake
- to continue using it.
- We solve all of this by introducing a new 'serial-tests' option.
- * lib/Automake/Options.pm (_process_option_list): Recognize the
- new option, and related minor refactoring.
- * tests/serial-tests.test: New test.
- * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.

- * NEWS: Likewise.

- timestamp resolutions. Add other minor related and unrelated
- improvements and fixlets since we are at it.
- 2012-02-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- automake: new option to print location of scripts and data files
- With this change, we add a new automake option '--print-libdir'
- that prints (on stdout) the path of the directory containing the
- Automake-provided scripts (e.g., 'missing' and 'install-sh') and
- data files (e.g., INSTALL or texinfo.tex).
- Suggestion by Nick Bowler. See also automake bug#10473.
- * automake.in (parse_arguments): Handle the new option.
- (usage): Mention it.
- * doc/automake.texi (automake Invocation): Document it.

- docs: prefer the awk+sh TAP driver over the perl one
- We had completed our shell+awk implementation of the TAP driver
- months ago, but never documented it in the manual, continuing to
- document only the "prototype" written in perl instead. Time to
- fix this, before the 1.12 release.
- * doc/automake.texi (Use TAP with the Automake test harness): Now
- we document the use of the awk+shell implementation of our TAP
- driver, rather than of the perl one.
- * tests/tap-doc2.test: Adjust to use the shell+awk implementation
- of the TAP driver.
- 2012-02-19 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: be stricter in determining whether "make -jN" works
- * tests/parallel-tests3.test: With at least Solaris 10 CCS make,
- "make -jN" does not fail, but merely prints a warning about
- "DistributedMake -j option" being ignored. This was causing this
- test case to fail spuriously. So we now use a stricter check in
- determining whether make works in parallel mode. Since we are at
- it, we try to cater also to Sun Distributed make, which understands
- "-j N" but *not* "-jN".

- parallel-tests: fix another BSD parallel make issue
- When BSD make is run in parallel mode, it apparently strips any
- leading directory component from the automatic variable '$*' (of
- course, against what POSIX mandates). This was causing FreeBSD 9.0
- make and NetBSD 5.1 make to spuriously fail with automake-generated
- test harnesses if subdir tests were present *and* make was being
- run in parallel mode. This issue affected also the Automake own
- testsuite.
- * lib/am/check2.am (am__set_b): New internal variable.
- (%OBJ%, %EXT%.log, %EXT%$(EXEEXT).log): Use it to work around
- the described BSD make issue.
- * tests/parallel-tests3.test: Enhanced to expose the bug.
- * tests/parallel-tests-subdir.test: Enhance a little, since we
- are at it.
- * NEWS: Update.

- tests: avoid FreeBSD make VPATH issues in more tests (see bug#7884)
- See also similar change 'v1.11-755-g818bc40' of 07-02-2012,
- "tests: work around bug#7884 in many yacc/lex tests". The
- rationale for this change is basically the same.
- * tests/lex-lib-external.test: Use "yl_distcheck" instead of
- bare "$MAKE distcheck" to avoid extra failures caused by
- automake bug#7884.
- * tests/lex-noyywrap.test: Likewise.
- * tests/lex-libobj.test: Likewise.
- * tests/man6.test: This test suffers from the same FreeBSD make
- incompatibility in VPATH handling that is the source of automake
- bug#7884. Since this is caused by rules that are defined in the
- Makefile.am by the test itself, rather that being generated by
- automake, the best thing to do is to skip this test if we detect
- the presence of said make incompatibility (through the function
- 'useless_vpath_rebuild').
- * tests/man8.test: Likewise.

- tests: fix many spurious failures in VPATH builds
- The 'is' helper script, used by some test cases since commit
- 'v1.11-1830-g96401cb' of 08-02-2012, "tests: better way to compare
- lists in Makefile rules", is not available in VPATH builds, since
- it resides in $(srcdir), nor in $(builddir), and only $(builddir)
- is added to $PATH in the test script. This was causing spurious
- failures.
- Solve this issue by re-organizing a bit the layout and placing of
- wrapper and help scripts used by the testsuite. This reorganization
- is by no mean complete, but should be enough to solve the VPATH
- issues.
- * tests/is: Moved ...

- tests: relax a test to cater to NetBSD make
- * tests/parallel-tests-empty-testlogs.test: When $(TESTS) is empty,
- NetBSD 5.1 make ends up defining $(TESTS_LOGS) to ".log" rather than
- to the empty string (as would be expected). This behaviour was
- causing a check in this test case to fail. But that check was in
- fact overly strict, since our recipes are smart enough to work
- around the botched-up substitution. Also, the failure wasn't a
- regression from Automake 1.11, since that version too would have
- triggered the same error with NetBSD 5.1 make. So we just relax
- the test a little to avoid extra noise in the testsuite.

- tests: TAP-based tests should error if no plan was specified
- After this change, it will still be OK for TAP-based tests not to
- report any explicit TAP plan -- but they should state *explicitly*
- that they want to do so, by calling the 'plan_' function with a
- proper argument (currently, either "later" or "unknonwn").
- Motivated by a recent issue introduced by yesterday's commit
- 'v1.11-1959-g0699a84' (pointed out by Peter Rosin, and fixed
- by follow-up commit 'v1.11-1961-gea44190').

- (skip_all_): Adjust.
- * tests/defs (exit trap): Only print the "lazy" TAP plan if 'plan_'
- has requested that *explicitly*.
- * syntax-check.mk (sc_tests_tap_plan): Remove: it's obsolete now,

- tests: avoid ksh bug for wildcards in EXTRA_DIST
- Some shells, like NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh, have a bug that causes
- wildcards resulting from an unquoted parameter expansion not to
- be expanded as expected in some cases:
- $ touch a b c d
- $ /bin/sh -c 'var="[ab]" && echo $var' # As expected.
- a b
- $ /bin/ksh -c 'var="[ab]" && echo $var' # Oops.
- [ab]
- $ /bin/ksh -c 'var="?" && echo $var' # But this as expected.
- a b c d
- This was causing a failure in our testsuite. Work around that.
- See also:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-02/msg00149.html>
- * tests/extra11.test: Work around the described issue by using the
- $(wildcard) builtin in the EXTRA_DIST definition. This is not a
- problem, since this test was assuming GNU make anyway. Since we are
- at it, enhance coverage a little by also running "make distcheck".
- * tests/extra10.test: Similarly, enhance coverage by also running
- "make distcheck", and fix a minor bug in the process. But continue
- using a "bare" wildcard expression in EXTRA_DIST, without involving
- the $(wildcard) builtin, to ensure coverage of similar usages "in
- the wild".

- tests: truly use Lex and Yacc selected by configure
- When 'yacc-work' was merged into 'yl-work-for-master' in commit
- v1.11-1910-ge6c40d4 (12-02-2012), the values for $YACC and $LEX
- stopped being substituted directly by config.status, and started
- being substituted by a Makefile rule using the contents of the
- $(YACC) and $(LEX) makefile variables.
- Unfortunately, our configure.ac was calling AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE on
- 'YACC' and 'LEX' (see commit v1.11-284-g34ca92b of 29-01-2011,
- "tests: don't define YACC and LEX in the Makefiles", for a
- rationale), so that the $(YACC) and $(LEX) in the Makefile simply
- hold the default make-provided values (that is, "yacc" and "lex"
- respectively), independently of what yacc and lex programs were
- defined at configure time.
- Apart from reducing coverage and creating confusion, this behaviour
- also caused spurious failures on systems lacking a yacc and/or lex
- programs.
- Problem reported by Peter Rosin. References:

- tests: fix spurious failures due to missing 'yywrap()' function
- The AC_PROG_LEX Autoconf macro does not diagnose a failure to find
- the "lex library" expected to provide a 'yywrap' function (function
- which is required to link most lex-generated programs). On the
- contrary, when all the link attempts (i.e., with '-ll' and '-lfl')
- fail, configure declares that no lex library is needed, and simply
- proceeds with the configuration process -- only for the build to
- possibly fail later, at make time.
- This behaviour is intended; the Autoconf manual reads:
- You are encouraged to use Flex in your sources, since it is
- both more pleasant to use than plain Lex and the C source it
- produces is portable. In order to ensure portability, however,
- you must either provide a function 'yywrap' or, if you don't use
- it (e.g., your scanner has no '#include'-like feature), simply
- include a '%noyywrap' statement in the scanner's source.
- This AC_PROG_LEX behaviour is causing some spurious failures of
- the Automake testsuite in environments which lack a proper library
- providing 'yywrap' (this happens for example on Fedora-based
- systems). The proper workaround is to simply provide a fall-back
- implementation of 'yywrap' in our lexers.
- See also similar commits 'v1.11-546-gca0ba5d' (24-10-2011),
- 'v1.11-1085-gb5c3968' (24-10-2011) and 'v1.11-871-geb147a1'

- depcomp tests: avoid redundant runs for libtool tests
- When running libtool-oriented tests, our 'depcomp.sh' script used
- to run the same checks thrice: once after having run configure
- with the '--disable-shared' option, once after having run it with
- the '--enable-shared' option, and once by allowing configure to
- automatically select which kind of library (or libraries) to build.
- This was done to offer extra coverage for the less-common depmodes
- (like "aix" of "hp2") where the name of the compiler-generated
- depfiles can depend on whether libtool is in use *and* on which
- kind of libraries libtool is building (static, shared, or both).
- About this, see commit 'Release-1-10-24-ge89ec38' of 28-03-2007,
- "* lib/depcomp (aix): Rewrite depmode in the spirit of the tru64
- one".
- But that extra coverage came at the price of *considerably* slowing
- down the depcomp libtool-oriented tests, since for each of them the
- tested source tree was configured and built *twelve* times (rather
- than "just" four as it is for the non-libtool case).
- So, to strike a balance between coverage and speed, we now run the
- libtool-oriented tests with the three different configuration modes
- *only* when it is possible that the depmode that will get selected
- is one of those which can actually benefit from the extra coverage.
- * tests/depcomp.sh: Adjust to only run the threefold libtool tests
- when that can truly be potentially useful. Add related explanatory
- comments.
- 2012-02-09 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: avoid wrong skips in dist-formats.tap
- * tests/dist-formats.tap: The test checking whether the 'compress'
- program is actually capable of compressing files relied on the
- assumption that 'compress' exits with status zero if no problem
- occurs; alas, this reasonable assumption doesn't hold in practice,
- since 'compress' does (and is documented to) exit with status 2 if
- the output is larger than the input after (attempted) compression!
- Fix this by using and input that 'compress' can actually reduce in
- size when compressing.
- Do some related reformatting of surrounding code since we are at it.

- tests: better way to compare lists in Makefile rules
- With this commit, we introduce a new helper shell script for use
- in the testsuite, which is meant to allow the test cases to easily
- check whether two whitespace-separated lists are equal; this ability
- is particularly useful to check for equality of the contents of make
- variables that are expected to contain multiple whitespace-separated
- words, and are defined through line continuations (or are rewritten
- by automake in this way), or that contain expansion of potentially
- empty variables.
- Before this change, a test checking that an usage like this one:
- VAR = valA
- if COND1
- VAR += val1 # com1
- endif COND1
- VAR += valC
- worked as expected, couldn't use rules like:
- ## Doesn't work because $(VAR) expands to multiple words
- verify:
- test $(VAR) = "valA val1 valC"
- nor like:
- ## Doesn't work because the final expansion of $(VAR) contains
- ## repeated contiguous whitespace characters (it actually
- ## equals "valA val1 valC", not "valA val1 valC"), and this
- ## is an internal detail which might change and which we don't
- ## want to explicitly rely on.
- verify:
- test "$(VAR)" = "valA val1 valC"
- Instead, we had to rely on cumbersome workaround such as:
- ## This works, but is ugly.
- verify:
- test "`echo $(VAR)`" = "valA val1 valC"
- or:
- ## This works, but is even uglier.
- verify:
- echo BEG: $(VAR) :END | grep "BEG: valA val1 valC :END"
- Now, with the help of the new 'is' script, we can perform such a
- check in a clearer and more straightforward way, as in:
- ## Works, and reads clearly.
- verify:
- is $(VAR) == valA val1 valC
- * tests/is: New helper shell script, telling whether two whitespace
- separated lists are equal.

- tests: improve and rework tests on dependency tracking
- Fixes automake bug#10434. Suggestion by Peter Rosin.
- The 'depcomp.tap' test case worked by trying to unconditionally
- force the compiler in use by the testsuite to use, one by one, *all*
- the dependency modes known by the 'depcomp' script, and, for each
- such forced mode that was compatible enough with said compiler not
- to cause breakage in the basic compilation rules, checking that it
- was *also* good enough not to break remake rules in VPATH builds.
- This seemed a good approach when this test was first introduced, as
- it apparently increased coverage for the less used and less tested
- dependency-tracking modes. But in the log run it turned out the
- approach was actually in part too brittle, causing some annoying
- spurious failures (as with the Tru64 depmode forced on GCC, see
- automake bug#10434), and partly too forgiving, since, for some of
- the more corner-case dependency modes, the 'depcomp' script simply
- reverts to silently disabling dependency tracking when an error is
- encountered (this happened e.g., with the Tru64 depmode forced on
- the Sun C compiler 5.9), so that a passing test means nothing, and
- only gives a false sense of security.
- As Peter Rosin put it, "it's just dead wrong to assume that feeding
- -M or -xM to the compiler (or whatever other random stuff 'depcomp'
- might do) and not get an error is the same as dependencies magically
- appearing".
- So we get rid of this wrong approach, and in the process proceed to
- a complete overhaul of many of the tests on automatic dependency
- tracking, extending the offered coverage and rationalizing their
- organization.
- * tests/depcomp.sh: New helper script, used by several new
- autogenerated tests.
- * tests/gen-testsuite-part: Generate several tests based on the
- new 'depcomp.sh' script. Emit makefile code that declares their
- dependency on that script, and that extends EXTRA_DIST in order
- to distribute it.

- dryrun: fix regression with '$(am__make_dryrun)'
- In commit v1.11-683-gda0964e of 05-02-2012, we introduced a new
- variable '$(am__make_dryrun)' that could be used in recipes to
- determine whether make is running in dry mode (e.g., as with
- "make -n"). Unfortunately, the idiom we used fails to take into
- account the case in which $(MAKEFLAGS) contains one or more variable
- definitions whose value is a whitespace-separated list; for example,
- if we invoke make as:
- make check TESTS="n1.test n2.test"
- then the better make implementations out there (at least modern
- GNU make and BSD make) will export MAKEFLAGS to the following
- value:
- TESTS=n1.test\ n2.test
- So a shell loop like the one we used in $(am__make_dryrun):
- for flag in $$MAKEFLAGS; do ...
- won't behave as expected: the shell word-splitting rules will break
- up the entry for TESTS into the two distinct entries "TESTS=n1.test\"
- and "n2.test", and this second entry will goad our $(am__make_dryrun)
- code into thinking that make is performing a dry run!
- So now we simply loop over the expanded value of $(MAKEFLAGS).
- This solves the regression, but alas, is more brittle in case the
- users passes on the command line a macro value containing unbalanced
- " or ' quotes, or shell metacharacters like, say, '`' or '('. This
- should almost never happen though, so we don't worry about it now;
- we will revisit the issue only when and if we receive bug reports in
- this area.
- * lib/am/header-vars.am (am__make_dryrun): Fix.

- tests: work around bug#7884 in many yacc/lex tests
- Due to automake bug#7884, many test cases on Yacc/Lex support are
- failing when run with FreeBSD make. Since these failures are all
- due to the same bug, and that bug is well understood and already
- explicitly exposed in the dedicated 'yacc-dist-nobuild.test' test,
- the reported failures are mostly noise, that not only is annoying,
- but which might end up covering different real bugs or regressions.
- Thus we minimize such spurious failures, by ensuring the commands
- triggering them (most of them being "make distcheck" invocations)
- will be skipped when $MAKE suffers of the bug/limitation that
- triggers automake bug#7884.
- * tests/defs.in (useless_vpath_rebuild): New function.

- tap/perl: handle missing or non-executable scripts better
- This change improves how our Perl-based TAP driver handles
- non-runnable test scripts (meaning they might be not executable,
- or not readable, or even not exist). In particular, it makes the
- driver deterministically display a clear "ERROR" result instead
- of possibly dying with diagnostic from 'TAP::Parser' internals,
- and prevents it from displaying spurious "missing TAP plan" errors.
- Moreover, with this change, some testsuite failures present only
- with newer perl versions (e.g., 5.14) are fixed. See automake
- bug#10418.
- * tests/tap-bad-prog.tap: When testing the perl implementation of

- tests: avoid spurious failure of 'transform2.test' on Cygwin
- On newer Cygwin versions (at least 1.7.x), the 'transform2.test'
- test has been failing spuriously; the gist is the following:
- some *purposefully* rigged install rules there try something
- like:
- install bla.exe .../inst/bin/foo.exe
- install script.sh .../inst/bin/foo
- and the second install command fails (trying to overwrite the
- '.../inst/bin/foo.exe' file, likely due to overly aggressive
- appending of '.exe' suffix when copying/renaming Windows
- executables). Since this is a Cygwin issue rather than an
- Automake one (and since the use case we are testing is a really
- corner-case anyway, making it unworthy to attempt to work
- around it in automake proper), we simply hack the test case
- to avoid the failure.

- tests: avoid spurious failure of deleted-am.test with FreeBSD make
- * tests/deleted-am.test: Sleep between the removal of the included
- '.am' fragments and the subsequent "make" calls, to ensure that the
- remake rules kick in. This is required to avoid racy spurious
- failures (~ 60% of the time) with FreeBSD make.

- tests: avoid possibly undeserved PASS from check8.test
- * tests/check8.test: Strengthen grepping of "make check" output
- where we know no problem with VPATH rewrites can take place. This
- has the advantage of ensuring that we won't match also "sub/bar"
- when looking for "bar" during the uncolorized tests.

- tests: work around MinGW/MSYS issue in fd redirections
- Some checks on $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT) were failing on MSYS, likely
- because system calls like "write(9, ...)" simply doesn't work for
- MinGW-compiled programs. Similar usages work for the shell scripts
- though, since /bin/sh is an MSYS program and thus is a lot more
- POSIX-ish than most MinGW-compiled programs.
- The best fix for this issue is to separate the checks using shell
- scripts as dummy test cases from the checks using compiled programs
- for the same purpose, and skip these latter checks on MinGW.
- This change fixes automake bug#10466. Report by Peter Rosin.
- * tests/parallel-tests-fd-redirect.test: Move checks using compiled
- C programs as test cases to ...
- * tests/parallel-tests-fd-redirect-exeext.test: ... this new test.
- * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update.
- 2012-01-27 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- warnings: more precise category and message for one warning
- If automake detected an usage like "AC_CONFIG_FILES([./Makefile])"
- in configure.ac, it warned that such an usage was unportable to
- non-GNU make implementations. But the truth is actually worse:
- that is actually *unportable to GNU make* itself, since it breaks
- the automatic remake rules in subtle ways.
- So we now reveal this breakage in a new test case, and enhance
- the warning by giving it a more precise and correct wording, and
- by moving it from the category 'portability' to the category
- 'unsupported'.
- * automake.in (scan_autoconf_config_files): Improve the warning.
- * tests/conffile-leading-dot.test: New test.
- * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.
- 2012-01-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- release: revamp rules to tag and upload the releases
- The older Makefile rules used to create and tag the releases were
- based on an approach we now consider flawed: they over-mechanized
- some delicate operations that are better performed manually *and*
- double-checked by a developer, and at the same time they did not
- run enough safety checks.
- * Makefile.am (GIT, version_rx, stable_version_rx, beta_version_rx,
- match_version, git_must_have_clean_workdir, determine_release_type):
- New variables.
- (git-release, git-dist): Remove, they are superseded by ...
- (git-tag-release, git-upload-release): ... these new targets.
- 2012-01-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- amversion: add missing dependency
- * m4/Makefile.am ($(top_srcdir)/m4/amversion.m4): Depend on
- configure.ac, since the value of $(VERSION) can change every
- time configure.ac is updated.
- 2012-01-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- hacking: update advice w.r.t. synced files
- * HACKING: Update and improve advices and explanations about files
- in the automake repository that are now owned by automake, but
- mirrored from other upstreams. Also, don't list these files
- explicitly, rather point the reader to the $(FETCHFILES) variable
- in Makefile.am.
- * Makefile.am (FETCHFILES): Don't state that "there should be a
- lot more here", as this is not true anymore today. Only 'COPYING'
- must be synced by hand.
- 2012-01-25 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- hacking: don't reference ChangeLog anymore
- * HACKING: Don't reference the ChangeLog file anymore, since that
- is now generated from the git commit messages, not maintained by
- hand. So remove advice that is obsolete, and speak about "git
- commit message" instead of "ChangeLog entry" for advice that is
- still relevant.

- * contrib/multilib/multilib.am: New file, adapted from extracts of
- a Makefile.in generated with automake multilib support. We did
- this instead of moving and editing 'lib/am/multilib.am' because it
- allows us to license this file with a liberal license that will
- permit users to copy-and-paste it in non-GPLed Makefile.am files
- too).

- tests: improve diagnostics when write(2) fails
- MinGW programs can't redirect file descriptor 9, they can only redirect
- stdin, stdout and stderr. So, improve the information in the test log.
- See automake bug#10466.
- * tests/parallel-tests-fd-redirect.test (baz.c, zardoz.c): Check the
- return value from the write(2) call, and report detected errors.

- 2012-01-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
- readme: how to run the testsuite with cross-compilers
- * tests/README: Suggest a better way to run the automake testsuite
- with cross-compilers -- that is, configuring the Automake source
- tree with proper `--build' and `--host' configure option. And
- yes, specifying both these options (not only `--host') is indeed
- required to avoid spurious failures in corner cases.
- When you call configure with the `--host' option but without the
- `--build' option, configure tries to auto-detect whether you are
- cross-compiling or not, by trying to run a generated executable.
- That test might spuriously "succeed" in some corner cases (e.g.,
- Cygwin is able to run non-Cygwin apps). In fact, generally, it
- can be the case that a cross-compilation is not detected as a
- cross anymore just because someone has installed an emulator; as
- an example, think of what can happen on a GNU/Linux system that
- is configured (through the use of the binfmt_misc kernel module)
- to execute PE executables (compiled for MS-DOS or Windows) through
- Wine *automatically*. In conclusion, configure needs to be used
- as recommended in the documentation (i.e., by specifying *both*
- `--host' and `--build' instead of just one of them) to not have
- the build fall into any of a number of weird traps.
- * tests/defs (cross_compiling): Improve comments.
- 2012-01-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: no need to unset CFLAGS in tests requiring 'gcc' anymore
- * tests/ccnoco.test: Since this test have "gcc" in $required,
- there is no need to manually nullify the CFLAGS variable, since
- now `tests/defs' should automatically re-define that to a value
- appropriate for gcc.
- * tests/ccnoco3.test: Likewise.
- 2012-01-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: allow compilers to be auto-selected on user's request
- In the recent changes, by pre-setting the required compilers for
- the `configure' scripts launched by the test scripts, we have
- slightly reduced the coverage of autoconf/automake code aimed at
- automatically detecting said compilers. This commit restore such
- coverage, by allowing the user to instruct the testsuite *not* to
- preset the testsuite compiler(s).
- * tests/defs (cc): If $CC is set to the special value "autodetect"
- or "autodetected", don't export the configure-detected CC, CFLAGS
- and CPPFLAGS variables; rather, unset them.
- (c++): Likewise, but for CXX, CXXFLAGS and CPPFLAGS instead.
- (fortran): Likewise, but for FC and FCFLAGS instead.
- (fortran77): Likewise, but for F77 and FFLAGS instead.
- (require_compiler_): New function, to reduce code duplication.
- 2012-01-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: substitute compilers and flags found at configure time
- * tests/Makefile.am (do_subst): Also substitute CC, CXX, F77, FC,
- CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, FCFLAGS and FFLAGS.
- * tests/defs-static.in: Define those variables, allowing for
- overrides from the environment.
- * tests/defs (for tool in $required): Export (subsets of) those
- variables when the stuff in `$required' calls for it.
- Add related explanatory comments.
- 2012-01-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- test defs: setup `*FLAGS' variables for GNU compilers
- * configure.ac: Setup some `*FLAGS' variables for use by the
- GNU compilers in our testsuite. For example, use `GNU_CFLAGS'
- instead of `CFLAGS', and so on for similar variables. This
- is especially useful in case the compilers found or defined
- at configure time are not the GNU ones.
- * tests/defs-static.in: Initialize those same variables with
- the values set at configure time, but allowing overrides
- from the environment.
- * tests/Makefile.am (do_subst): Process configure-style
- substitutions of those variables (e.g., `@GNU_CFLAGS@').
- * tests/defs: When a GNU compiler is required, override the
- corresponding generic `*FLAGS' variable with the GNU-specific
- variant (e.g., redefine `$CFLAGS' to take the value of
- `$GNU_CFLAGS').
- 2012-01-23 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- configure: search generic compilers for use in the tests
- * configure.ac: Look for "generic" C, C++ and Fortran compilers,
- with the aim of starting to use them in the testsuite (this will
- be done in future changes). This is more tricky than it seems,
- since we don't want to abort the whole configure script even if
- no one of those compilers is available (after all, they're only
- needed by the testsuite, not to build automake), but currently
- autoconf doesn't offer an easy way to obtain this behaviour.
- We prefer non-GNU compilers to the GNU ones, to ensure better
- coverage "in the wild".

- dist tests: missing 'compress' program was causing spurious failures
- Fixes automake bug#10575.
- The compress(1) tool is becoming anachronistic, and thus is not
- installed by default on modern distros (e.g., Fedora 16). We
- can't thus unconditionally assume it exists on every reasonable

- * tests/dist-formats.tap ($missing_compressors): When defining
- this, don't assume anymore that compress(1) is unconditionally
- available.
- (Parallel compression): Skip this sub-test if compress(1) is
- unavailable.
- Since we are at it, fix a couple of unrelated buglets: a typo
- in a test name (s/distcheck/ark-exists/), and some attempts to
- remove directories with "rm -f".
- 2012-01-22 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- vala: fix name of temporary file used in vala rules
- Unquoted `@' characters in a "..." string in the automake script
- were causing slightly wrong rules to be emitted in the generated
- Makefile.in; i.e., rules like:
- rm -f $@ && echo stamp > $10t
- instead of the expected:
- rm -f $@ && echo stamp > $@-t
- * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Fix that.

- 2012-01-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- multilib: deprecate, will be moved to contrib
- As of 2012-01-17, according to Google codesarch, almost no active
- package is using the 'multilib' feature offered by automake.
- The only major exception seems to be GCC... But on a closer look,
- it become clear that GCC basically carries its own version of
- multilib support. In fact, Automake syncs its 'config-ml.in' and
- 'symlink-tree' scripts from GCC; and the GCC repository contains a
- version of the 'multi.m4' file that is *more* updated than the one
- in the automake repository (the former having being modified the
- last time in 2008, the latter only in 2006).
- The 'multilib' feature was anyway hardly documented at all, only
- being briefly cited in the manual as an "obscure feature", "still
- experimental", that was only for users "familiar with multilibs"
- and which "can debug problems they might encounter". We expect
- such users to be motivated and knowledgeable enough to make the
- minor adjustments required to start using the contrib version of
- multilib, if they really need to.
- * NEWS (Future backward incompatibility): Update.
- * doc/automake.texi: Deprecate multilib support. State that it
- will be removed from automake core in the next major release.
- * m4/multi.m4 (AM_ENABLE_MULTILIB): Deprecate. If called, now
- gives a proper warning in the 'obsolete' category (while still
- retaining its former behaviour for the rest).
- * tests/multilib.test: Update.
- * contrib/multilib/multi.m4: New, verbatim copy of the earlier
- version of multi.m4, without the new deprecation warning.
- * Makefile.am (fetch): Don't sync the 'config-ml.in' file nor
- the 'symlink-tree' script from GCC SVN repository anymore.
- (FETCHFILES): Adjust.
- (WGET_GCC): Remove, it's not needed anymore.
- 2012-01-21 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- fixlet: flags for Fortran77 compiler are in FFLAGS, not F77FLAGS
- This change fixes automake bug#10555.
- Note that the bug was a minor one, since it didn't affect the
- compilation rules generated by automake, but only only the "hints"
- printed by automake in some error messages (e.g., "The usual way
- to define `FFLAGS' is to add AC_PROG_F77 to configure.ac").
- * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): The code generated
- by AC_PROG_F77 uses FFLAGS, not F77FLAGS, as the variable where to
- look for switches for the Fortran 77 compiler: adjust accordingly.
- 2012-01-19 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>

- cmdline parsing: move into a dedicated perl module
- 2012-01-18 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- cmdline parsing: move into a dedicated perl module
- With this change, we delegate most of the automake and aclocal code
- for command-line options parsing to a new module "Automake::Getopt".
- This allows better code sharing between automake and aclocal, and
- also with Autoconf, which will sync the new module from us. See
- also autoconf commit 'v2.68-120-gf4be358' (2012-01-17, "getopt: new
- Autom4te::Getopt module"), and this mailing list discussion:
- <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2012-01/msg00033.html>
- This change might interact with the behaviour described in automake
- bug#7434; for example, starting from now, "automake -Wfoo --version"
- will cause automake to emit diagnostic like "unknown warning
- category 'foo'" before actually printing the version number and
- exiting. This is not a big deal in practice, and the code sharing
- and simplifications introduced by this patch is certainly worth it.
- Still, we should revisited the issue in the future.
- * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm: New module, basically a slightly-edited
- copy of the 'lib/Autom4te/Getopt.pm' file from the autoconf devel
- repository (commit v2.68-120-gf4be358). It defines and exports ...
- (parse_options): ... this new function.
- * automake.in (parse_arguments): Use the new function.
- * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Likewise.
- * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (dist_perllib_DATA): Add the new file.

- tests: don't use custom TAP diagnostic in our own tests
- We simply don't need it (yet), we are not actually using it (the
- set up for using it is there in the Makefile, but no test script

- * tests/Makefile.am (TAP_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS): Remove '-comments' and
- '--diagnostic-string' options.
- * tests/defs ($diag_string_): Remove redefinition.

- tests: better name for a couple of tests
- Two tests checking "make -n" behaviour with the parallel-tests
- harness has been introduced in the Automake repository in the past:
- one of them ('parallel-tests-dryrun.test') in the maint branch, the
- other one ('parallel-tests-dry-run.test') in the master branch.
- Needless to say, their too-much-similar names can be a great source
- of confusion now. Moreover, the two tests have been written during
- distinct refactorings, and are meant to exercise different code
- paths and/or usage scenarios, so that no one of them subsumes the
- other, and they should be both kept.
- Thus we simply rename both of them to avoid future confusion.
- * tests/parallel-tests-dryrun.test: Renamed ...
- * tests/parallel-tests-dry-run-1.test: .. to this.
- * tests/parallel-tests-dry-run.test: Renamed ...
- * tests/parallel-tests-dry-run-2.test: .. to this.

- build: simplify our top-level "recheck" target
- * Makefile.am (recheck): Now that all the test scripts are in

- anymore.

- 2012-01-18 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- cosmetics: move CheckListOfTests.am into tests/
- After the previous change 'v1.11-660-gfbeda3d', the makefile
- fragment 'CheckListOfTests.am' is used only by the Makefile.am
- in 'tests'; so keeping them two nearer makes sense. It also help
- in reducing potential confusion, since (after that same change)
- the whole Automake testsuite is expected to be (and remain)
- contained into the 'tests' subdirectory.
- * CheckListOfTests.am: Move ...
- * tests/CheckListOfTests.am: ... to this.
- * tests/Makefile.am (include): Adjust.
- 2012-01-18 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: move all under the same hierarchy ('tests/' directory)
- This simplifies the organization of the Automake source tree and
- reduces the (lamentably high) number of Makefiles in the Automake
- build system by one. It also makes the maintainer check that
- verifies the consistency of list of tests more self-contained and
- simpler. Finally, it might be a first step forward the transition
- to a non-recursive build system for automake (if we ever decide to
- go down that road fully some day).
- * lib/Automake/tests: All the '*.pl' tests in here moved ...

- tap: some makes in parallel mode unconditionally serialize output
- Some make implementations (among them, FreeBSD make, NetBSD make,
- and Solaris Distributed Make), when run in parallel mode, serialize
- the output from their targets' recipes unconditionally. This has
- the nasty side effect that the user won't see the partial results
- of a TAP test until the test has terminated. This is not something
- our TAP driver script can work around unfortunately; in fact, the
- driver is sending out its output progressively and "in sync" with
- test execution -- it is make that is stowing such output away
- instead of presenting it to the user as soon as it gets it.
- So we content ourself with working around the issue in our
- testsuite, to at least avoid failures we could do nothing to
- prevent.
- * tests/tap-realtime.test: Skip this test if the make program used
- is a non-GNU make running in parallel mode. And if Sun dmake is
- being used, try to force it to run in serial mode, by exporting the
- 'DMAKE_MODE' environment variable to "serial".

- tests: avoid spurious failures with parallel make
- Some tests are unprepared to be run with a make command that runs
- in parallel mode by default. This can happen e.g., if the user
- explicitly run the tests with something like:
- AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE="gmake -j3" in the
- in the environment, but also if the make used in the testsuite is
- Sun Distributed Make, and the 'DMAKE_MODE' environment variable is
- set to "parallel".
- Fix some instances of this issue.
- * tests/tap-doc.test (Makefile.am): Declare explicit dependencies
- among the test cases, to ensure they are run in the correct order.
- * tests/tap-doc2.test: Set the 'DMAKE_MODE' environment variable

- 2012-01-17 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: fix spurious failures with Solaris dmake
- Solaris Distributed Make, when run in parallel mode, can sprinkle
- its standard output with lines like:
- hostname --> 2 jobs
- ...
- hostname --> Job output
- ...
- This behaviour was causing spurious errors in some tests where we
- compare the output of make with a known, expected value. Fix that.
- * tests/tap-doc.test: Before comparing the output from make with its
- expected value, remove extra lines that could have been printed by
- Solaris dmake.
- * tests/tap-doc2.test: Likewise.

- * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Ensure the timestamp file
- from which the C files generated from Vala sources depend on gets
- created with a modification time that is truly older than those of
- said generated C files. This prevents make from attempting useless
- rebuilds (which were bound to happen deterministically on systems
- with sub-second timestamp resolutions). It is worth noting that,
- luckily, those useless rebuild ended up being a no-op, since the
- Vala compiler is careful not to update the timestamp of an output
- file if its content has not changed from the previous version.
- Still, the useless rebuilds messed up "make -q" and "make -n"
- invocations, and were technically incorrect (despite being, as
- noted, inoffensive in practice).
- Problem revealed by failure of tests vala-mix.test and vala5.test

- This is basically a backport of commit 'v1.11-358-g7b6ab07'

- the list of test scripts listed in a Makefile equals that of
- the tests on the filesystem has proved itself so useful that

- * CheckListOfTests.am: Simplify the recipe, accordingly to the

- case when we used to have some entries in $(TESTS) that were not
- real files, but rather "parameters" (sort of) for the corresponding
- $(LOG_COMPILER). However, that usage had proven to be confusing
- and brittle, and thus removed (see commit 'v1.11-1308-g375f23d' of

- maint: remove obsolete/broken maintainer targets
- * Makefile.am (git-diff): Remove. First, we don't distribute diffs
- between an automake version and the next one anyway, so this target
- is pointless. Moreover, its recipe has been broken for quite a
- long time now, always generating an empty diff due to the spurious
- '$(PACKAGE)' argument that was passed to the "git diff" invocation.
- (path-check): Remove. The 'pathchk' program running in this check
- complains about any file with name longer than 14 characters, which
- is a ridiculously low limit for today standards. Also, we already
- had several test scripts (no less than 195!) that were exceeding
- that limit, and nobody ever complained (not even on MinGW/MSYS nor

- dist: avoid $(distdir) removal failure on MSYS/MinGW
- This change fixes automake bug#10470.
- On MSYS (1.0.17) it is not possible to remove a directory that is
- in use, and this, together with timing issues, could cause spurious
- failures in the cleanup code of the "distcheck" recipe. In fact,
- it should be noted that assuming a directory can be removed while
- it the CWD of a running process is a POSIX violation:
- "If the directory is the root directory or the current working
- directory of any process, it is unspecified whether the function
- succeeds, or whether it shall fail and set errno to [EBUSY]."

- dist: distdir not unconditionally removed anymore for xz and lzip
- This change fixes automake bug#10444 a.k.a. bug#10448.
- The 'dist-xz' and 'dist-lzip' recipes were erroneously using
- '$(am__remove_distdir)' instead of '$(am__post_remove_distdir)'
- to cleanup the '$(distdir)'; so a "make dist" issued in a package
- using (say) gzip and xz compression would have failed to properly
- created the gzip tarball, since the distdir was unconditionally
- removed by "make dist-xz" upon its completion, instead of being
- left populated for the following "make dist-gzip".
- The problem with 'dist-xz' was introduced in the merge commit

- scripts: quote 'like this', not `like this'
- This change follows up on recent changes to the GNU coding standards.
- They now suggest that we should quote 'like this' or "like this" instead
- of `like this'; see:
- <http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Quote-Characters.html>.
- Gnulib is being changed accordingly, and Gnulib imports some files
- directly from Automake master, so change those files to use the
- straight-up style. This affects only commentary and quoting in
- diagnostics.

- tests: safer declarations of test dependencies
- To declare prerequisites common to all the tests, we now prefer to
- use the special `check_DATA' and `check_SCRIPTS' variables rather
- than "lazy" dependency declaration like "$(TEST_LOGS): DEPS ...";
- this because the latter, allowing run-time overriding of the
- TEST_LOGS variable, turned out to be subtly incomplete in some
- situations involving non-trivial inter-test dependencies. For
- example, if the user issued a:
- make check TESTS=libtool.test
- before the `defs-static' file was created (either explicitly or
- implicitly), a spurious errors followed, along these lines:
- 1. $(TEST_LOGS) got dynamically defined to `libtool.log';
- 2. make saw that, in the Makefile, `libtool.log' was explicitly
- declared depending on `libtool-macros.log' and `defs-static';
- 3. somehow, make considered the dependency on `libtool-macros.log'
- *before* considering the one on `defs-static' (which BTW is
- perfectly legitimate on make's part);
- 4. to satisfy such a dependency, make set out to execute the
- test `libtool-macros.test' in order to create the file
- `libtool-macros.log';
- 5. since `libtool-macros.log' was *not* in $(TEST_LOGS), it
- didn't appear to depend on the `defs-static' file, so make
- didn't consider necessary to build `defs-static' before
- running the `libtool-macros.test' script;
- 6. but that script sources `./defs-static' in order to work;
- thus the test `libtool-macros.test' failed spuriously.
- * tests/Makefile.am ($(TEST_LOGS)): Remove explicit declaration
- of dependency on the required files/scripts; instead use ...
- (check_SCRIPTS, check_DATA): ... these new variables.

- tests: skip tests on perl TAP driver if TAP::Parser is not available
- We had so far taken for granted that all the perl installations
- modern enough to correctly run automake also came with a built-in
- TAP::Parser module; unfortunately, testing on MinGW/MSYS has
- shown that this is not always true, and that a lot of spurious
- testsuite failures would take place in such a situation (see
- automake bug#10440).
- Luckily, the perl implementation of the Automake TAP driver is
- only meant to be used for prototyping and consistency checks, the
- "real" Automake TAP driver being the portable one implemented in
- awk. So we can simply skip the affected tests on systems lacking
- TAP::Parser.
- * tests/defs (fetch_tap_driver): Skip the whole test case if
- the desired tap driver implementation is the perl one but the
- TAP::Parser module is unavailable.
- * tests/tap-bad-prog.tap: Adjust order of calls to `plan_' and
- `fetch_tap_driver', to ensure the test is not skipped after the
- TAP plan has been outputted (which would lead to a spurious
- error).
- * tests/tap-bad-signal.tap: Tweak to avoid the need to source the
- `tap-setup.sh' script, as that might cause a test skip too late,
- i.e., after a TAP plan has been already printed.
- * tests/tap-test-number-0.test: Do not force the test to skip
- when the tested TAP driver implementation is not the perl one.
- On the other hand, when it *is* the perl one, skip the test if
- the TAP::Parser module is unavailable.
- * tests/test-driver-cond.test: Skip the part of the test actually
- running "make check" if the TAP::Parser module is unavailable.
- * tests/get-sysconf.test: Also print the version of the
- `TAP::Parser' module, if available.

- tests: fix spurious failures due to autom4te caching
- 2012-01-06 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- dist: do not wrap calls to 'tar' with the 'missing' script
- The `missing' script is meant to allow non-developers to build a
- package in the face of slightly-skewed timestamps (as might happen
- e.g. when the package is obtained from a VCS checkout rather than
- from a distribution tarball). It is *not* the business of the
- `missing' script to try to provide wrappers for all the maintainer
- tools (in this case, to tool being a decent tar program). Such
- wrapping of `tar' was not only inappropriate, but it was also
- preventing the legitimate overriding (at make runtime) of the
- `tar' program used in the creation of the distribution tarballs.
- See also automake bug#9822.
- * lib/missing: Don't try to specially wrap `tar' invocations
- anymore.
- * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): In the definitions of the `AMTAR'
- variable, do not wrap the `tar' invocation with the `missing'
- script anymore. Instead, allow the user to override the intended
- tar program at make runtime, by defining the `TAR' environment
- variable.
- [$1 == v7]: Similarly for the definitions of the `am__tar' and
- `am__untar' variables. Since we are at it, don't make them depend
- anymore on the definition of the obsolescent `AMTAR' variable.
- * NEWS: Update.

- parallel-tests: avoid trailing backslashes in make recipes
- The new testsuite-harness could generate recipes with a trailing
- backslash character (possibly followed by blank characters only),
- in the very common case where the user hadn't defined the special

- dist: obsolete support for lzma (superseded by xz and lzip)
- The lzma utilities are today superseded by the xz utilities; in
- fact, the official site at <http://tukaani.org/lzma/> reads:
- ``LZMA Utils are legacy data compression software with high
- compression ratio. LZMA Utils are no longer developed, ...
- Users of LZMA Utils should move to XZ Utils.''
- and the existing automake manual (as of 1.11.2) already says:
- ``dist-xz
- Generate an 'xz' tar archive of the distribution. xz archives
- are frequently smaller than bzip2-compressed archives. The 'xz'
- format will soon (early 2009) displace the 'lzma' format''
- Also, the `dist-lzma' target still suffers of never-solved bugs,
- due to the too-high compression ratio its uses by default, which
- might cause an unacceptable memory consumption when one tries to
- compress or, worse, decompress the created tarballs; see also:

- Many maintainer checks in the top-level Makefile.am did some

- This failed to properly take into account VPATH builds (where some
- generated tests might be in ${builddir} rather than in ${srcdir}),
- TAP-based tests script (which have a `.tap' extension) and helper

- test defs: more granular overriding of the make program
- Before this change, the only way the user could override the make
- program used in the automake test cases was to override the $MAKE
- variable in the environment. This had the annoying side effect of
- requiring that, whenever a non-default make program was to be used
- in the test cases, that same make program had to be used to drive
- the execution of the automake testsuite; otherwise, the recursive
- make invocations could pick up $MAKE from the environment, and use
- that instead of re-executing with the correct make.
- So, for example, if one wanted to try how Solaris /usr/ccs/bin/make
- behaved in the automake test cases, he couldn't run the testsuite
- in parallel mode, because that make lacks support for concurrent
- execution of recipes; on fast machines, this easily meant a 4x or
- higher slow-down.
- Once the problem is clear, the solution is pretty simple: allow
- the use of another variable, besides $MAKE, to override the make
- program to be used in the test cases.
- See also commit `v1.11-1318-g3ceeef4', that introduced a more
- general version of this change to the master branch.
- * tests/defs.in: Allow the make implementation to be used by the
- test cases to be overridden by the `$AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE' variable,
- in preference to the `$MAKE' variable.

- and automake invocation, and added anchors to the old names as not
- to break hyperlinks to our on-line manual. Unfortunately, these
- anchors had been erroneously placed *before* the relevant `@node'
- commands, instead that just after, so that they ended up pointing
- to the wrong chapters. Fix this. Since we are at it, tweak the
- wording of the comments to the anchors to better match that used
- in the autoconf manual.
- Report and suggestion by Eric Blake.

- docs: fix paragraph names for automake and aclocal invocations
- All the other autotools entitle their invocation nodes
- "autofoo Invocation", whereas automake used to call its
- "Invoking Automake" and "Invoking aclocal". So let's
- try to be more consistent.
- This change is related to automake bug#8071.
- Suggestion by Reuben Thomas and Eric Blake.
- * doc/automake.texi (Invoking Automake): Node renamed ...
- (automake Invocation): ... to this.
- (Invoking aclocal): Node renamed ...
- (aclocal Invocation): ... to this.
- Add proper @anchor directives to avoid breaking existing web
- hyperlinks still using the old names of the renamed nodes.
- 2011-12-28 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
- tests: fix spurious failure due to autom4te caching
- * tests/acloca18.test: Remove stale autom4te.cache directories, to
- prevent racy, spurious failures.
- * tests/python11.test: Likewise. Fix a typo in comments since we
- are at it.

- maint: autogenerate ChangeLog
- Following the practice set by various other GNU projects, we start
- to automatically generate the ChangeLog file from the git commit
- messages. This will avoid duplication (as the ChangeLog entries
- were always inserted both in the git commit message and in the
- version-controlled ChangeLog file), and potential problems with
- spurious merge conflicts (which, although greatly mitigated by
- Bruno Haible's `git-merge-changelog' helper program, have never
- been completely solved).
- * ChangeLog: Moved ...
- * ChangeLog.11:... to this.
- * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
- (gitlog_to_changelog_command, gitlog_to_changelog_options): New
- variables.
- (ChangeLog, am--changelog-regen-hook): New targets.
- * .gitignore: Add ChangeLog.
