40f4b5dd 2021-12-18 18:26:46 doc: %reldir% and %canon_reldir% do not expand to the empty string. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/52500. * doc/automake.texi (Include): correct wrong text. (Along the way, correct plain-text "Makefile" to "@file{Makefile}".)
5112a1fe 2021-12-12 18:08:06 configure: skip kcc on case-insensitive filesystems; add clang++. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/21336. * configure.ac: Skip KCC check on case-insensitive filesystems; on macOS 10.10 and later, a kerberos tool named "kcc" is installed. Add clang++ to the C++ search list, as with current autoconf.
bed9e25e 2021-12-12 18:01:03 maint: update .gitignore. * .gitignore: ignore *~ .# and (from Zack Weinberg, autosave files) .*.sw[op] \#*#, closer to matching Autoconf. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2021-12/msg00005.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2021-12/msg00010.html
6156cd86 2021-12-12 01:07:39 m4: replace AC_DIAGNOSE with m4_warn AC_DIAGNOSE was marked obsolete with autoconf-2.62 in 2008. * m4/obsolete.m4: Change AC_DIAGNOSE to m4_warn.

948c5fa4 2021-11-04 18:17:39 doc: rearrange Multiple Outputs node. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/48188. * doc/automake.texi (Multiple Outputs): move GNU pattern rule approach to the front, since it is probably best if GNU make can be assumed. Suggestion from Frank Heckenbach. Also, remove one of the examples that did not work, per Paul Smith.
b7868119 2021-10-31 12:52:43 config headers: add support for silent builds * lib/am/remake-hdr.am (%STAMP%): Use $(AM_V_at) and $(AM_V_GEN). (%CONFIG_HIN%): Likewise.

This change addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/49309. * doc/automake.texi (Testsuite Environment Overrides): new subsubsection, separating out [AM_]TESTS_ENVIRONMENT description. Add example to get "RUNNING: <testname>" when a test starts.
80ad99a6 2021-09-28 14:59:22 doc: tweak Yacc/Lex text; subnode for the yacc linking hack. * doc/automake.texi (Alternative): remove obsolete footnote.

2bb6340f 2021-09-11 10:06:13 tests: let yacc's yyerror take its argument as a const string Some of yacc error messages are const strings; it makes no sense for yyerror to take a 'char *', it should be a 'const char *' as POSIX now requires. Fixes all the failures reported by Kiyoshi Kanazawa. <https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2021-09/msg00005.html> See bug#50469 <https://debbugs.gnu.org/50469>. * t/cond35.sh, t/silent-many-languages.sh, t/silent-yacc-headers.sh, * t/silent-yacc.sh, t/subpkg-yacc.sh, t/suffix10.tap, t/yacc-basic.sh, * t/yacc-clean.sh, t/yacc-d-basic.sh, t/yacc-d-vpath.sh, * t/yacc-deleted-headers.sh, t/yacc-depend.sh, t/yacc-depend2.sh, * t/yacc-dist-nobuild-subdir.sh, t/yacc-dist-nobuild.sh, t/yacc-dry.sh, * t/yacc-line.sh, t/yacc-misc.sh, t/yacc-mix-c-cxx.sh, t/yacc-nodist.sh, * t/yacc-pr204.sh, t/yacc-subdir.sh, t/yacc-vpath.sh, * t/yflags-cmdline-override.sh, t/yflags-force-override.sh (yyerror): From 'char *' to 'const char *'.

13659a73 2021-07-09 09:03:30 dist: add new "dist-no-built-sources" automake option. Fixes automake bug https://debbugs.gnu.org/49317. * bin/automake.in: implement new option "no-dist-built-sources" to omit the dependency of distdir on $(BUILT_SOURCES).

This change was suggested by madmurphy; some ideas were taken from the patch he provided. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2021-06/msg00005.html * bin/automake.in (@toplevelmd_ok): new global, listing the files for which we will accept .md versions. (@common_files): remove those files from there. (handle_dist): check for .md if non-.md is absent. (handle_minor_options): check for README-alpha.md.

ed8daa06 2021-05-18 15:11:59 python: use Python's sys.prefix and sys.exec_prefix for PYTHON_PREFIX and PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX; new configure options --with-python_prefix and --with-python_exec_prefix to set explicitly. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/35322. * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): use Python's sys.prefix and sys.exec_prefix for PYTHON_PREFIX and PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX, instead of $prefix and $exec_prefix. But use a variable reference to ${prefix} if it is contained within sys.prefix; similarly for exec_prefix. Also support new configure options to set explicitly. (PYTHON_PREFIX, PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX): AC_SUBST these. (am_cv_python_pythondir): use our new $am_cv_python_prefix, substituting ${PYTHON_PREFIX}. (am_cv_python_pyexecdir): likewise. * doc/automake.texi (Python): PYTHON_PREFIX, PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX, document new approach. * t/instmany-python.sh: set PYTHON_PREFIX as needed. * t/python-vars.sh (PYTHON_EXEC_PREFIX, PYTHON_PREFIX): also set from Python's sys.{exec_,}prefix; use ${PYTHON_{EXEC,}PREFIX} instead of ${exec_,}prefix.

03d1ab0a 2021-02-22 18:23:16 doc: a_LDFLAGS always overrides AM_LDFLAGS. This change addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/34925. * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): document that using a_LDFLAGS at all, even in the false branch of a conditional, means that AM_LDFLAGS is ignored.
784fcf21 2021-02-21 18:26:15 doc: [AM_]RUNTESTFLAGS not [AM_]RUNTESTDEFAULTFLAGS. * doc/automake.texi (Other Variables): Change [AM_]RUNTESTDEFAULTFLAGS to [AM_]RUNTESTFLAGS.
89a76c9c 2021-02-11 18:05:15 doc: user flags last does not always allow overriding. This change addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/35526. * doc/automake.texi (Flag Variables Ordering): recognize that user flags last does not always allow overriding.
f80a940a 2021-01-06 17:57:08 doc: discuss AC_* ordering a little. * doc/automake.texi (Optional): mention that AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR must be called before AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, and recommend that other AC_CONFIG_* macros be called after. This seems to be the most common practice. Autoconf does not currently impose ordering: https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?110416
ccb57553 2020-12-14 14:50:47 Fix some build and test failures with Autoconf 2.70. Autoconf 2.70 (released last week) makes a few changes that broke Automake’s expectations, mostly in the test suite. This patch addresses two of the problems: - autoconf now issues a warning if fed a configure script that doesn’t invoke both AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT; this, plus a problem with system-provided tools (still under investigation) broke the *build* on macOS; it also causes a couple of spurious testsuite failures. - AC_PACKAGE_NAME and AC_PACKAGE_VERSION are now defined unconditionally. AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE needs to use m4_ifset instead of m4_ifdef to diagnose the obsolete use of AC_INIT with fewer than two arguments. (This change is compatible with autoconf 2.69; m4_ifset is much older, and it means ‘defined with a non-empty value’.) * configure.ac: Use both AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT in test configure scripts. * t/deprecated-acinit.sh, t/init.sh: Likewise. * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use m4_ifset, not m4_ifdef, to detect AC_PACKAGE_NAME and/or AC_PACKAGE_VERSION not having a value.
6a753ef5 2020-12-13 18:34:35 python: don't assume $(...) in py-compile. This change (very) partially fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/45205. * lib/py-compile: use `...` instead of $(...). Solaris 10 /bin/sh is still in use.
9f044de1 2020-12-09 15:02:19 tests: more .NOTPARALLEL tests. * t/java-compile-run-nested.sh: .NOTPARALLEL in subdirs too.
87b29629 2020-12-08 15:01:00 tests: more .NOTPARALLEL tests. * contrib/t/multilib.sh: yet more .NOTPARALLEL for AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE, found by Jim on heavier machines. * t/autodist-stamp-vti.sh: likewise. * t/java-compile-run-nested.sh: likewise. * t/transform2.sh: likewise.
95da1185 2020-12-07 15:53:01 tests: more .NOTPARALLEL tests. * contrib/t/multilib.sh: use .NOTPARALLEL to avoid unreproducible (and undebuggable, by me) test failures when running make -j$njobs AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE="make -j$njobs" for some arbitrary but rather large value of $njobs. The failures don't occur with just make -j; have to run the makes inside the tests in parallel also. * t/java-compile-install.sh: likewise. * t/java-compile-run-flat.sh: likewise. * t/java-uninstall.sh: likewise. * t/vala-headers.sh: likewise.
46420770 2020-12-05 18:19:18 doc: comment Vala -newer test. This change updates https://bugs.gnu.org/44772. * bin/automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): comment that we're checking "C file not older than Vala file", and the log message misleadingly says "reversed".
d2ccbd7e 2020-12-05 18:11:55 tags: support setting CTAGS, ETAGS, CSCOPE vars via ./configure. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/45013. * m4/init.m4: add default settings and AC_SUBST calls for the variables `CTAGS', `ETAGS' and `CSCOPE'. * lib/am/tags.am: remove default settings of the above variables. * doc/automake.texi (Tags): mention and index. * NEWS: mention.
e83520ff 2020-12-03 11:00:53 warnings: be less forceful about a missing subdir-objects option. This change somewhat ameliorates https://bugs.gnu.org/20699. * bin/automake.in (handle_single_transform): change forward-incompatibility message for subdir-objects to be less draconian and less certain that the change will ever be made. * t/subobj.sh: message text has changed. * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): mention the unfortunate fact that one directory can clean in a sibling, subdir-objects notwithstanding.
b35822b5 2020-11-27 18:07:10 tests: .NOTPARALLEL test-driver-create-log-dir. * t/test-driver-create-log-dir.sh (.NOTPARALLEL): add target, since the two tests under sub/ seem to have a race condition. No evident way to debug or reliably reproduce. Reported by Jim.
7581ec20 2020-11-27 18:02:08 vala: avoid wrong regeneration of C files. This change might fix https://bugs.gnu.org/44772. * bin/automake.in (lang_val_finish_target): reverse -newer test to handle files being created at the same time causing spurious rebuilds.
1f166f3c 2020-11-24 14:24:22 doc: typo. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44845. * doc/automake.texi (Vala Support): zardoz.c not zardoc.c.
a5af212c 2020-11-23 18:04:56 tests: create log file before running the test script. This change partially fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/35762. * lib/test-driver: create $log_file before running the test script. Also quote $log_file. Combined suggestions from howaboutsynergy and Eric Blake.
dd616e2d 2020-11-22 10:13:16 doc: mention overriding SUBDIRS= with TESTS= and recursive make. This change palliates https://bugs.gnu.org/42883, though it's not a real fix. * doc/automake.texi (Parallel Test Harness): with recursive make, when limiting the tests run, also presumably needed to override SUBDIRS.
5ce670d9 2020-11-18 20:19:12 maint: Post-release administrivia * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version number to 1.16b. * m4/amversion.m4: Likewise (auto-updated by "make bootstrap").
0188451e 2020-11-18 18:08:41 version 1.16.3 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version number to 1.16.3. * m4/amversion.m4: Likewise (auto-updated by "make bootstrap"). * NEWS: Record release version.
b28fead2 2020-11-16 09:50:04 tests: correct preceding change. * t/auxdir-pr19311.sh: Fix error in case stmt and match more upcoming versions.
7cdef9f7 2020-11-16 09:34:23 tests: auxdir-pr19311.sh no longer fails with latest autoconf * t/list-of-tests.mk (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove from this list. * t/auxdir-pr19311.sh: Instead, run this test only when autoconf is 2.69d or newer. Otherwise, skip it.
a919babf 2020-11-16 07:47:30 maint: placate maintainer-check's rm -f check * t/vala-recursive-setup.sh: Add an unnecessary -f option to an rm invocation to avoid "make maintainer-check" failure.
3b2633fb 2020-11-15 21:42:14 maint: Update files from upstream with 'make fetch' * lib/config.guess: Update. * lib/config.sub: Likewise. * lib/texinfo.tex: Likewise.
17e6f26a 2020-11-15 21:14:24 tests: avoid missing .dvi failure with parallel tests * t/txinfo-no-clutter.sh: Tests of texinfo-related rules had overlap that made them fail often when some rules were run in parallel, so inhibit parallelism in that one directory. See discussion starting at https://lists.gnu.org/r/automake-patches/2020-11/msg00011.html
26ef6e7f 2020-11-15 09:00:37 tests: protect against parallel false failure * t/parallel-tests-console-output.sh: Do not depend on the order of items in test summary. With a parallel test run, they may appear in a different order, e.g., when running tests like this: make check AM_TESTSUITE_MAKE='make -j14' Sort the expected output and the actual output before comparing.
ba522c63 2020-11-15 08:12:40 doc: fix quoting in suggested parallel test invocation * t/README: Fix reversed single/double quotes.
103cf704 2020-11-14 20:19:28 tests: accommodate an $ac_aux_dir of "." or "./" * t/auxdir-pr15981.sh: This test would fail when run with autoconf-2.69d because $ac_aux_dir would be "./" rather than the expected ".". Accept both.
b495c128 2020-11-14 19:51:46 tests: avoid failures due to missing ar-lib * t/ar4.sh: Create dummy ar-lib, as done in other tests, to avoid failure like this: configure: error: cannot find required auxiliary files: ar-lib * t/ar5.sh: Likewise.
3313d9ca 2020-11-13 17:51:46 install-sh: trailing whitespace. * lib/install-sh: remove trailing whitespace. Sigh. (scriptversion): 2020-11-14.01
37b70ac4 2020-11-13 17:50:09 dejagnu: quote `pwd` when writing "set objdir" line to site.exp. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44600. * lib/am/dejagnu.am (site.exp): quote set objdir line. * NEWS: mention this.
db65189f 2020-11-12 17:49:31 install-sh: new option -S SUFFIX for simple file backups. * lib/install-sh: implement and document -S. Patch sent by Julien Elie: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2018-03/msg00004.html (scriptversion): 2020-11-13.01 * t/install-sh-option-S.sh: new test. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_tests): add it. * NEWS: mention it.
8aa4d93f 2020-11-10 18:18:35 install-sh: --help tweaks. * lib/install-sh (usage): avoid too-long line, mention bug reporting address (bug-automake) and automake home page.
a296ffe1 2020-11-10 18:03:47 install-sh: new option -p to preserve mtime. * lib/install-sh: new option -p to call cp -p. Idea from patch sent by Julien Elie: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2018-03/msg00002.html (scriptversion): 2020-11-11.02 * NEWS: mention this. 2020-11-10 Karl Berry <karl@freefriends.org>
9b7f0f9e 2020-11-10 17:58:41 vala: forgot to update lists-of-tests.mk. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_tests): include t/vala-libs-distcheck.sh and t/vala-libs-vpath.sh. Should have been committed with 2020-10-29 vala change, but somehow missed. 2020-11-10 Karl Berry <karl@freefriends.org>
6b182dc5 2020-11-10 17:54:06 install-sh: do not chown existing directories. * lib/install-sh: do not chown existing directories. Original patch sent by Julien Elie: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2018-03/msg00003.html (scriptversion): 2020-11-11.01 * NEWS: mention this.
5c8d6e25 2020-11-10 17:48:35 install-sh: do not redundantly specify -f to rm. * lib/install-sh: do not redundantly specify -f to rm. Mention implication for RMPROG in the --help message. Original patch sent by Julien Elie: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2018-03/msg00005.html * NEWS: mention this.
782ac400 2020-11-07 18:44:56 vala: improve support, especially builddir vs. srcdir. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/13002. * NEWS: mention these changes. * bin/automake.in: generated C files go in builddir, not srcdir. Distribute the header files generated from VAPI files. * t/vala-libs-distcheck.sh: new test for `make distcheck' of a Vala library. * t/vala-libs-vpath.sh: new test for a VPATH build of a Vala library. * t/vala-libs.sh: add local VAPIs used as external --package to test. * t/vala-recursive-setup.sh: we need to make maintainer-clean at one point to remove stamp files to avoid confusing a VPATH build performed after a non-VPATH build. * t/vala-non-recursive-setup.sh: likewise. * t/vala-parallel.sh: some test paths need changing to take into account that generated C files now go in builddir. * t/vala-per-target-flags.sh: likewise. * t/vala-recursive-setup.sh: likewise. * t/vala-vpath.sh: likewise.
285c285c 2020-11-07 18:11:03 tests: recompute dependencies when lists-of-tests.mk changes. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44458 and updates https://bugs.gnu.org/11347. * t/local.mk ($(srcdir)/%D/testsuite-part.am): restore dependency on '%D/list-of-tests.mk' (i.e., t/list-of-tests.mk), partially reverting the change of 26 Apr 2012 for bug#11347. Otherwise, new tests that have dependencies will not cause an update of testsuite-part.am, leading to strange failures (bug#44458). The original problem being fixed in #11347 was unnecessary rebuilding when modifying tests; that should not be affected here, but when new tests are added, it seems reasonable, as well as necessary, to ensure dependencies are updated.
e21d46fd 2020-10-27 14:33:46 python: determine Python (3.10) version number correctly. This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/44239 (and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1889732). * m4/python.m4: use print('%u.%u' % sys.version_info[:2]) for the version number instead of merely sys.version[:3], so the numbers are treated as numbers. * t/python-vars.sh (PYTHON_VERSION): Likewise. * doc/automake.texi: Document it. * NEWS: mention it. (Minor tweaks from Karl Berry.)
310edf02 2020-10-23 21:13:09 doc: correct "moved in", to "moved to" * NEWS: Correct wording. * contrib/README: Likewise. * doc/automake.texi: Likewise.
e30c0962 2020-10-15 13:11:11 contrib/README: fix and clarify the English
f832992d 2020-10-21 23:31:46 Improve Vala compiler detection: use API version, not compiler version * m4/vala.m4: check `valac --api-version', not `valac --version'. * doc/automake.texi: update documentation.
9f83372b 2020-10-07 09:19:06 Use complete configure.ac’s in testsuite. Autoconf 2.70 will issue warnings if it encounters a configure.ac that doesn’t call both AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT. Automake already issues warnings if it encounters a configure.ac that uses an AM_ macro but doesn’t call AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE or AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile]). In two places, the testsuite was tripping these warnings, leading to spurious failures with Autoconf 2.70 betas. * t/aminit-moreargs-deprecation.sh: Add AC_OUTPUT to test configure.ac. * t/mkdirp-deprecation.sh: Use a complete test configure.ac, not a stub containing only a use of AM_PROG_MKDIR_P.
dbc1c9e7 2020-10-06 18:16:14 automake: install-exec did not depend on $(BUILT_SOURCES). This change fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/43683. * lib/am/install.am (install-exec): %maybe_BUILT_SOURCES% dependency, twice. Basic patch from madmurphy (tiny change), message#8. (.MAKE) [maybe_BUILT_SOURCES]: depend on install-exec. * NEWS: mention it. * doc/automake.texi (Sources): mention this (also that make dist depends on $(BUILT_SOURCES)). * t/built-sources-install-exec.sh: new test. * t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): add it. * t/built-sources-install.sh: typo. * t/built-sources-check.sh: typo.
e0d69cc7 2020-09-21 14:16:33 Update documentation of warnings options and strictness levels. The warning categories ‘cross’ and ‘portability-recursive’ were not mentioned in the manual. Also clarify the relationship between warnings categories and strictness levels, and streamline the description of strictness levels by merging the “Gnits” section into the “Strictness” section. * doc/automake.texi (Gnits, Strictness): Combine these sections. Minor revisions to explanation of strictness levels. (automake Invocation): Add documentation of all the warnings categories that have been added since the last time this section was updated. Minor clarifications.
