0256f1d6 | 2013-05-18 13:35:16 | 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.

84e12c32 | 2013-05-17 13:45:44 | 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). * t/ax/test-lib.sh (_am_unset): New function. (unset): New alias to it. (_am_exit): Adjust comments. * t/ax/am-test-lib.sh: No need to temporary disable the 'errexit' shell flag when unsetting variables that are potentially already unset.

361430c0 | 2013-05-16 14:18:55 | 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).

c148dc73 | 2013-05-11 11:45:16 | 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.

In fact, if the same incompatible version number is specified in AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS in both (say) 'Makefile.am' and 'sub/Makefile.am', we want each such erroneous usage reported separately, rather than just the first time it is encountered (as we'd expect to happen when "uniq_scope => US_GLOBAL" is used).

02ead48e | 2013-04-29 16:12:34 | 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 't/subdir-keep-going-pr12554.sh'.

edfd3bc4 | 2013-02-17 16:42:46 | 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. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add it. * t/tar.sh: While at it, tweak and enhance a little. * t/tar2.sh: Likewise. * t/tar3.sh: Likewise. * t/tar-override.sh: Likewise. * NEWS: Update. * THANKS: Likewise.
