Exploit `install' with multiple files at once for some file types. With nobase targets, at most 50 files are installed at once, to avoid quadratic string concatenation and line length limits. This isn't yet done with base targets. One hope is that there, the typical file name length is lower. If this turns out to be a problem, it should be revisited. * lib/am/inst-vars.am (am__nobase_list): New helper macro for installation of multiple nobase files at once: sorts and lists files keyed by their target directory. * lib/am/data.am (%DIR%%PRIMARY%_INSTALL): No need to set it to $(install_sh_DATA) any more, not even for nobase targets. (install-%DIR%%PRIMARY%): Split base and nobase cases. Rewrite to pass lists of files which all go in the same directory to `install'. In the nobase case, make use of $(am__nobase_list) and $(MKDIR_P) each directory before populating it. Take care of files in source and build trees, and avoid creating directories where no files are to be installed. * lib/am/libs.am (%DIR%LIBRARIES_INSTALL): Likewise. (install-%DIR%LIBRARIES): Likewise. * lib/am/python.am (%DIR%PYTHON_INSTALL): Likewise. (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Likewise. Also take care to keep note of a list for byte compilation after installation. * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi-am, install-html-am) (install-info-am, install-pdf-am, install-ps-am): Use file lists to install multiple files at once. * NEWS: Update.
