Hash :a07d169a Message :maintcheck: be sure to look at all the test cases
Many maintainer checks in the top-level Makefile.am did some
unwarranted assumptions about the test cases, i.e., they assumed
that all the test scripts matched the wildcard `$(srcdir)/*.test'.
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
scripts used by other test cases (which have a `.sh' extension).
Fixes automake bug#9299.
* Makefile.am (xtests): New variable, containing a (dynamically
computed) of files that looks like test cases of the automake
testsuite.
Update many rules to use this new variable instead of blindly
assuming that all the testcases matches the $(srcdir)/tests/*.test
wildcard.
* tests/tap-bad-prog.tap: Do a minor formatting change to
avoid spuriously triggering a match from the syntax check
`sc_tests_overriding_macros_on_cmdline'.
