819005ae | 2012-03-15 09:12:00 | python: avoid failures due to $(am__py_compile) being undefined Fixes automake bug#10995, introduced in commit v1.11-372-gb46debf. * lib/am/python.am: Move the definition of 'am__py_compile' to ensure it is always emitted in the output Makefile.in. Previously, this wouldn't have happened if the input Makefile.am contained a 'noinst_PYTHON' declaration before a 'python_PYTHON' one. * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 'python-pr10995.test' and 'python.test'. * NEWS: Update.

ddac0505 | 2012-03-07 23:26:24 | getopt: relax version requirement for perl * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm: Require perl 5.6.0, not 5.6.2: the former is enough. See also commit 'v1.11-2054-g7df05a0' on master (dated 04-03-2012). | |

3a814608 | 2012-03-07 21:08:06 | 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. Discussion about merging the msvc branch into branch-1.11: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2011-10/msg00030.html Discussion about why this merge hasn't happened before: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2011-12/msg00051.html Extra edits below. * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Use the version from branch-1.11. * tests/ar-lib3.test: Likewise. * tests/ar-lib4.test: Likewise. * tests/extra-portability.test: Likewise. * tests/extra-portability2.test: Likewise. * tests/extradep.test: Likewise. * tests/extradep2.test: Likewise. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Likewise. * HACKING: Backport the version from branch-1.11 while at it (as the change on branch-1.11 is also present on master via an unrelated commit), even though this change has nothing to do with the changes on the msvc branch. | |

|
8dd50099 | 2012-02-15 19:00:10 | fixup: distribute 'lib/update-copyright' While the 'update-copyright' script shouldn't be needed by final users, that's not a good reason to keep it out by the distribution, as doing so might be unhelpful toward occasional but curious users interested in peeking into the automake build system. * lib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute 'update-copyright'. | |
 |
43b8af82 | 2012-02-12 16:57:42 | maint: add a rule to use gnulib's update-copyright * lib/update-copyright: New file, from gnulib. * Makefile.am (FETCHFILES): Add update-copyright to the list. (fetch): Fetch it. (update-copyright): New rule. | |

947ce0ed | 2012-02-07 11:12:59 | 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 $(MAKEFLAGS). This solves the regression, but alas, is more brittle in case the users passes on the command line a macro value containing unbalanced " or ' quotes, or shell metacharacters like, say, '`' or '('. This should almost never happen though, so we don't worry about it now; we will revisit the issue only when and if we receive bug reports in this area. * lib/am/header-vars.am (am__make_dryrun): Fix. * tests/make-dryrun.test: New test. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it. | |
|
da0964eb | 2012-01-23 21:02:05 | refactor: new variable telling whether make is running in "dry mode" We define a new variable '$(am__make_dryrun)', that can be used in recipes to determine whether make is running in "dry mode" (as with "make -n") or not. This is useful in rules that invoke make recursively, and are thus executed also with "make -n" -- either because they are declared as dependencies to '.MAKE' (NetBSD make) or because their recipes contain the "$(MAKE)" string (GNU and Solaris make). * lib/am/header-vars.am (am__make_dryrun): New variable. * lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS recheck): Use it, and simplify recipe accordingly. * lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Likewise. * lib/am/lisp.am ($(am__ELCFILES)): Likewise. | |
|
c3e4962a | 2012-01-31 12:52:24 | cleanup: remove unused .am file * lib/am/comp-vars.am: Remove. This file has stopped being useful since commit 'Release-1-4d-206-g3334f9a' of 09-04-2001, and should have been removed back then. But apparently only its contents were removed, leaving the file empty but still present in the repository. Or maybe this situation is the consequence of a minor blunder in the conversion from CVS to Git; either way, this is not a big deal. | |
|
2a2f57fc | 2012-01-30 23:19:03 | ar-lib: ignore the verbose modifier instead of erroring out * lib/ar-lib: A number of tests uses the v modifier when listing the archive content, ignore it to make them pass. | |
|
41404a8f | 2012-01-30 23:16:37 | scripts: cherry-pick recent changes from master * lib/ar-lib: prefer the term "Windows" over "Win32" and quote 'like this', not `like this'. * lib/compile: Likewise. | |
|
84fbf466 | 2012-01-20 20:52:02 | 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. | |

52246cc7 | 2012-01-18 17:55:40 | 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/getopt.test: Remove. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update. | |
|
fbeda3da | 2012-01-18 12:17:11 | 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 ... * tests/pm: ... into this new directory. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Remove, its meaningful contents moved ... * tests/Makefile.am: ... here, with obvious adjustments. (test_subdirs): New variable, for the sake of the recipe of 'maintainer-check-list-of-tests'. * CheckListOfTests (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): Enhance its recipe to make it able to deal with test script residing in subdirectories. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): Simplified. (TEST_SUBDIRS): Remove, no more needed. * tests/list-of-tests.mk (perl_TESTS): New variable, lists the '.pl' tests just moved into 'tests/pm'. (handwritten_TESTS): Add the contents of '$(perl_TESTS)'. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Update. * .gitignore: Adjust. | |
|
2a9862a8 | 2012-01-18 09:45:01 | gitlog-to-changelog: update from upstream * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Update from gnulib upstream. The only changes should be cosmetic and/or minor fixlets. | |
|
a6e60819 | 2012-01-17 23:31:19 | changelog: don't cluster multiple entries under the same "date line" * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Synced from gnulib. The new version has a new option '--no-cluster', that disables clustering of adjacent commit messages under the same "date line". * Makefile.am (gitlog_to_changelog_options): Add '--no-cluster'. Also add a proper '--format' specification to ensure we have a blank line between the summary line and the commit message body. | |
|
8fec2399 | 2012-01-13 22:39:47 | recheck: fix interaction with "make -n" * lib/am/check.am (recheck): Ensure the recipe does not erroneously remove '.log' files when running under "make -n". For the sake of NetBSD make, this also means that ... (.MAKE): ... this cannot depend on 'recheck' anymore. * tests/parallel-tests-dryrun.test: New test. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it. | |
|
d9a7182e | 2012-01-13 18:53:43 | recheck: behave better with non-GNU make * automake.in (handle_tests): Also substitute '%CHECK_DEPS%' with the value of the '@check' array, containing the list of early test dependencies like '$(check_SCRIPTS)', $(check_PROGRAMS)', etc. * lib/am/check.am (recheck): Explicitly depend on '%CHECK_DEPS%'. (check, recheck): Unify the implementation of their recipes, with different code paths taken depending on the name of the target. This makes the implementation of "recheck" less brittle in the process (especially when non-GNU make and AM_MAKEFLAGS overriding are involved). * lib/am/check-html.am (check-html, recheck-html): Likewise. * tests/check.test: Adjust to avoid spurious failure. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Improve coverage. | |
|
20f2ac90 | 2012-01-13 17:56:13 | check: separate .log -> .html conversion from core testsuite harness That feature is to be deprecated in the 1.11.x series, and removed from the automake core in the 1.12 release, where it will instead be offered in a semi-independent extra '*.am' fragment. So let's start better separating the .log -> .html conversion from the "core code" of the parallel-tests harness. Reference: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-01/msg00005.html> * lib/am/check.am (.log.html, check-html, recheck-html): Move these targets ... * automake.in (handle_tests): ... and the initialization of the TEST_SUITE_HTML variable and the cleaning of the $(TEST_SUITE_HTML) file ... * lib/am/check-html.am: ... in this new file, with related (minor) refactorings, enhancements and simplifications. * lib/am/check.am (.MAKE. PHONY, AM_RECURSIVE_TARGETS): Adjust. * lib/am/Makefile.am (dist_am_DATA): Add 'check-html.am'. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Improve coverage. | |
|
27f1a1c9 | 2012-01-16 10:05:59 | maintcheck: consistency of list of test scripts This is basically a backport of commit 'v1.11-358-g7b6ab07' and its follow-ups. The possibility of easily checking that the list of test scripts listed in a Makefile equals that of the tests on the filesystem has proved itself so useful that it's worth taking the annoyance of backporting it to maint. * CheckListOfTests.am: New file, backported from master (commit 'v1.11-1736-g083a75b') with minor adjustments. (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): New target, check for consistency between the list of tests defined in the including Makefile and the list of tests on the filesystem. (clean-maintcheck-testslist-tmp): New rule, to clean up temporary files that might be left around by the rules associated with the previous target. (clean-local): Depend on it. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Include `CheckListOfTests.am'. * tests/Makefile.am: Likewise. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check-list-of-test): New target, calling recursively into `tests/' and `lib/Automake/tests/', using ... (TEST_SUBDIRS): ... this new variable. (maintainer-check): Added dependency from the new target `maintainer-check-list-of-tests'. | |
|
8856653e | 2012-01-15 23:08:21 | build: improve silencing of automake build system In this change, we continue the silencing of the automake build system that has been started in commit v1.11-642-g17542c3, but which has been left incomplete there for an (absent-mindness) mistake. * Makefile.am (INSTALL): Silence the recipe. (automake, aclocal): Likewise, and improve them a little since we are at it. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (Config.pm): Likewise. | |
|
05c02989 | 2012-01-15 17:14:04 | gnupload: moved to gnulib Since the gnupload script is not required by automake-generated code (be it configure or Makefile content), and is not specifically tied to automake in any way, it is better to have its master copy installed in the gnulib repository, as is already done for similar generally-useful, maintainer-oriented scripts. We can them sync it from there. See also gnulib commit v0.0-6822-gf8b7120, and: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-01/msg00222.html> * Makefile.am (FETCHFILES): Added 'gnupload'. (fetch): Also sync 'gnupload' from the gnulib repository. * lib/gnupload: Synced from gnulib. * NEWS: Update. | |
|
def0340b | 2012-01-15 17:10:21 | sync: gitlog-to-changelog from gnulib upstream * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Synced from upstream, by "make fetch". | |

dfb5e52f | 2012-01-11 18:09:07 | 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]." * lib/am/distdir.am (am__remove_distdir): If rm fails, sleep some seconds and retry, to give potential "pending" processes some time to exit and "release" the directory. * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 'distcheck-pr10470.test'. Report and suggestions by Peter Rosin and Eric Blake. | |

01c3294b | 2012-01-03 16:12:46 | 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. * tests/missing-tar.test: Remove, it's obsolete. * tests/tar-override.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. Reported by Akim Demaille. | |

e3b0e124 | 2012-01-05 15:13:30 | parallel-tests: avoid issue with overly long lines in sed input See automake bug#10437: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10437> and coreutils bug#10427: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10427#8> * lib/am/check.am (recheck, recheck-html): In order to strip trailing whitespace from the definition of the `$list' variable, we used to invoke sed in a way that could cause it to get passed overly long input lines, causing spurious failures. So rework the logic of the recipe to avoid any sed invocation, relying on simpler shell idioms instead. (check-TESTS): Reorganize the recipe to be more similar to the one of `recheck', for consistency and simplicity. * NEWS: Update. Report and analysis by Paul Eggert. | |

f4e221b6 | 2012-01-02 09:40:13 | progs, libs: implement EXTRA_foo_DEPENDENCIES Backported from commit `v1.11-377-g6edafbb'. The feature implemented by that change is quite unobtrusive, so adding it to a maintenance release is acceptable. Also, there have been requests from real-world users for this feature since it has been implemented in master; see automake bug#9320: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9320> and this short discussion on the automake list: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2010-11/msg00099.html> It would be a pity to make such users wait even more (until Automake 1.12 is out) before they could start using this feature. Thus we backport it, so that it will appear in the next maintenance version of automake (1.11.3). * automake.in (handle_programs, handle_libraries) (handle_ltlibraries): Mark EXTRA_*_DEPENDENCIES as recognized. * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables) (LIBOBJS): Document EXTRA_*_DEPENDENCIES. * lib/am/library.am (%LIBRARY%): Also depend on $(EXTRA_%XLIBRARY%_DEPENDENCIES). * lib/am/ltlibrary.am (%LTLIBRARY%): Also depend on (%XLTLIBRARY%_DEPENDENCIES). * lib/am/program.am (%PROGRAM%%EXEEXT%): Also depend on $(EXTRA_%XPROGRAM%_DEPENDENCIES). * tests/extradep.test, tests/extradep2.test: New tests. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. * NEWS: Update. | |

|
e637fa2a | 2011-12-30 15:54:40 | 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.

e9150626 | 2011-12-08 22:54:18 | repo: don't commit generated files in the git repository anymore It has been quite some time since autoconf and libtool have stopped committing the generated autotools files in their git repositories, with no significant ill effects we're aware of. It's true that the autoconf bootstrap process has now the minor annoyance that a pre-installed autoconf is required to complete it; but luckily automake will not have a similar annoyance, since our bootstrap script take care, through some hoops, to use the very automake and aclocal versions from the current git checkout to generate the required aclocal.m4 and Makefile.in files. In fact, this has been a necessity also in the past, because automake has been known to use in its own build system new development features that hadn't been present in any previously released automake distribution. * aclocal.m4: Delete. * configure: Likewise. * Makefile.in: Likewise. * doc/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/Makefile.in: Likewise. * lib/am/Makefile.in: Likewise. * m4/Makefile.in: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.in: Likewise. * .gitignore: Ignore configure, aclocal.m4, and all the Makefile.in files. * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): New macro call, to require the latest autoconf (2.68 for the moment). | |

Also, it's worth noting that the main purpose of the `missing' script is to allow a non-developer to build the package in the face of slightly-skewed timestamps, not to provide wrappers for all the maintainer tools -- so we don't have to try too hard when `missing' is just called to wrap `tar'. * tests/missing-tar.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. | |

c8e01d58 | 2011-12-09 23:17:18 | dist-xz, dist-bzip2: don't hard-code -9, honor envvar settings Before the present change, automake-generated `dist-xz' rule used a hard-coded `xz -9'. That was a problem because on this front, xz differs from gzip and bzip2. While the latter two don't incur any run-time decompression penalty for using a higher compression level, specifying -9 with xz imposes a potentially fatal virtual memory requirement on any client that wants to decompress your tar.xz file. People have complained that a tarball compressed with -9 cannot be uncompressed in a low-memory environment (wrt-based embedded). Hence, instead of defaulting to -9, which is useful only for very large tarballs, it defaults to -e (equivalent to -6e). This limits the default memory requirements imposed on decompressors, yet still gives very good compression ratios. * lib/am/distdir.am (dist-xz): Do not hard-code xz's -9: that made it impossible to override. Actually don't default to -9, either, since that induced inordinately large virtual memory usage when merely decompressing. Instead, use its XZ_OPT envvar, defaulting to -e if not defined. Suggested by Lasse Collin. (dist, dist-all) [?XZ?]: Likewise (dist-bzip2): Similarly, do not hard-code -9, but do continue to use -9 by default. Honor the BZIP2 envvar. (dist, dist-all) [?BZIP2?]: Likewise * NEWS: Update. * doc/automake.texi (The Types of Distributions): Describe the newly enabled environment variables. This is inspired to commit v1.11-389-g6da46f3, with additional changes to reflect that the xz compression level should default to -e, not -9. | |

This is especially useful to distro packagers, and is a definite improvement over our previous hack of looking whether the `install-info' program was the Debian or GNU version -- hack which had been silently broken with recent versions of debian install-info BTW (probably since dpkg 1.15.4, 2009-09-06).

97600392 | 2011-06-10 12:26:42 | distcheck: add support for AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS * doc/automake.texi (Checking the Distribution): Suggest to use AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, not DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, to define (in the top-level Makefile.am) extra flags to be passed to configure at "make distcheck" time; DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS should be reserved for the user. Add proper `@vindex' directive. Document that AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS is not honoured in a subpackage Makefile.am, but the flags in it are passed down to the configure script of the subpackage. * lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Also pass the flags in $(AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS) to the configure invocation. Update comments. * tests/defs.in.test (AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS, DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS): Unset in case they are exported in the environment, they might improperly influence our testsuite. * tests/distcheck-configure-flags.test: New test. * tests/distcheck-configure-flags-am.test: Likewise. * tests/distcheck-configure-flags-subpkg.test: Likewise. * distcheck-hook.test: Likewise. * distcheck-hook2.test: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. Closes automake bug#8487. | |

a2ebf0e5 | 2011-06-08 22:27:25 | py-compile: '--' and non-option arguments terminate the option list * lib/py-compile: Any non-option argument, or the special `--' argument, now explicitly terminates the list of options. * tests/py-compile-option-terminate.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. * NEWS: Update. | |

cd16ceb3 | 2011-06-08 22:10:08 | py-compile: complain on unrecognized options * lib/py-compile: Complain on unrecognized options. Don't be too lax in matching `--help' and `--version' options. * tests/py-compile-usage.test: Extend accordingly. * NEWS: Update. | |
|
429b748c | 2011-06-08 22:00:38 | py-compile: normalize error and help messages * lib/py-compile: Now error messages do not begin with a capital letter, nor end with a period, as per GNU standards. Prepend the error messages with the name of the script, not with its path. When an invalid usage is recognized, always display the customary message "Try `py-compile --help' ..." on a line of its own. ($me): New variable, containing the name of the program, i.e., `py-compile'. Use it throughout. (usage_error): New function, used to display error messages about invalid usage. * tests/py-compile-usage.test: Extend and tighten accordingly. | |

dd8b570a | 2011-06-08 14:55:01 | py-compile: the '--destdir' option now accepts a blank argument * lib/py-compile (Option parsing): Do not count an empty argument to `--destdir' or `--basedir' as a missing argument. * lib/python.am: Simplify accordingly, passing the `--destdir' option to py-compile unconditionally, even if `$(DESTDIR)' is empty. * NEWS: Update. | |
|
b46debf5 | 2011-06-08 14:33:49 | python: run the 'py-compile' script with $(SHELL) * lib/python.am (install-%DIR%PYTHON): Run each instance of py-compile using $(SHELL). Since we are at it, break overly long lines. (am__py_compile): New variable, to reduce code duplication. | |

8a8890a9 | 2011-05-29 11:04:08 | build: the user can override AUTOM4TE, AUTORECONF and AUTOUPDATE too Our build system allows the user to override AUTOCONF and AUTOHEADER at configure time, and honours these overrides in our testsuite. But it didn't do the same with AUTOM4TE, AUTORECONF and AUTOUPDATE. This change fixes that inconsistency. * configure.ac (am_AUTOM4TE, am_AUTOUPDATE, am_AUTORECONF): New AC_SUBSTitutions. Update comments. * tests/defs.in ($AUTOUPDATE): Default to `@am_AUTOUPDATE@' now. ($AUTOM4TE): New variable, defaulting to `@am_AUTOM4TE@'. ($AUTORECONF): New variable, defaulting to `@am_AUTORECONF@'. * doc/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/amhello-1.0.tar.gz): Update. | |

bee9871d | 2011-05-29 15:24:58 | remake: behave better with non-GNU make in subdirectories Currently, with every decent make program, it is possible to rebuild out-of-date autotools-generated files with a simple "make Makefile" -- but for this to work reliably with non-GNU make implementations, the command must be issued from the top-level directory. This patch removes such limitation. * lib/am/configure.am (am--refresh): Depend on `%MAKEFILE%'. * tests/defs.in (using_gmake): New function, backported from the `master' branch (and simplified). * tests/remake-subdir.test: New test. * tests/remake-subdir2.test: Likewise. * tests/remake-subdir-gnu.test: Likewise. * tests/remake-subdir-from-subdir.test: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. | |
