Doing so caused problems on older packages that specify configure.ac: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4]) Makefile.am: ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4 if the 'm4' directory does not exist when aclocal is called the first time by autoreconf.

c83c1335 | 2013-02-11 13:11:51 | aclocal: just warn if the primary local m4 dir doesn't exist (don't error) Related to automake bug#13514. Every package which does not need to have the local m4 macro directory pre-existing in the version control system (because e.g., it does not have nor need any private m4 macros) would fail during the "autoreconf -vfi" phase if AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4]) is specified in configure.ac (it could be to instruct tools like 'autopoint' and 'libtoolize' to use 'm4' as the local directory where to install definitions of their m4 macros, and to instruct aclocal to look into it). The failure would go like this: autoreconf: Entering directory `.' autoreconf: running: aclocal --force aclocal: error: couldn't open directory 'm4': No such file or directory autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1 The problem is that when 'aclocal' is run for the first time during 'autoreconf', the directory 'm4' does not exist yet. It will be created by e.g., 'libtoolize' or 'autopoint' later on. During the second 'aclocal' run, the 'm4' directory exists and aclocal does not complain. To work around this issue, we degrade the error to a simple warning. The warning is still quite useful when aclocal is run by hand - so we are not removing completely.

Basically, for the versioning scheme: - micro versions only for bug and regression fixing; - minor versions for new backward-compatible features, and new non-fatal deprecations; - major versions for backward-incompatibilities, complex new features, and major refactoring. And for the git branching scheme: + branch 'next' is for the upcoming major version; + branch 'master' is now for the upcoming minor version; + branch 'maint' is for the upcoming micro (bug-fixing) version; + the merging hierarchy is: 'maint' -> 'master' -> 'next'. * HACKING (Automake versioning and compatibility scheme): New.

d3844bbf | 2013-02-14 12:32:27 | tests on TAP: don't run the driver with perl unconditionally * t/ax/tap-setup.sh: When a 'Makefile.am' was pre-existent in the test directory at the moment the client test script sourced this file, said 'Makefile.am' was tweaked to provide it with a proper definition of TEST_LOG_DRIVER. However, there was an error in this automatic definition, since it caused the TAP test driver to be unconditionally invoked with perl. This wasn't an issue in most situations, since perl is smart enough to re-execute a given script with the proper interpreter if it sees a she-bang line that doesn't seem to point to perl itself. Still, there is no reason to do something blatantly wrong even if our tools correct the dumb mistake for us. So fix the TEST_LOG_DRIVER definition.

97f04a5d | 2013-01-28 13:22:12 | NEWS: IRIX is still supported; only SGI C compiler depcomp no longer is This change is for the maint branch. The only IRIX-specific support that is going to actually be removed in the next major Automake versions is the depcomp support for the SGI compiler. That means that automatic dependency tracking will no longer work with that compiler, but "normal" compilation should still work, at least until the compiler is supported by Autoconf. So there is no point in alarming our users by stating in the NEWS file that "support for IRIX and the SGI compilers is going to be removed"; after all, while we don't test on nor particularly care about IRIX anymore, that doesn't mean we are deliberately breaking it, and the likelihood of an intended breakage there is very low.

eada7ef7 | 2013-01-18 13:13:30 | compat: reinstate AM_CONFIG_HEADER and AM_PROG_CC_STDC Make them give runtime warnings in the obsolete category, but apart from that, make them behave as they did in Automake 1.12.x and earlier. While removing those macros seemed quite harmless, because it didn't put a real burden on the developers (requiring them just to do a quick edit to configure.ac), it turned out to place an unsustainable burden (or at least, a burden perceived as such) on distro packagers who use the latest Automake to bootstrap existing packages. Many of those packages, while having likely updated to AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in their development version, still used AM_CONFIG_HEADER in their existing released versions, and the removal of this macro would have thus forced the Fedora packagers to patch all of them. References: <http://www.mail-archive.com/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/msg52840.html> <http://www.spinics.net/lists/fedora-devel/msg175922.html> <http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2013/01/autotools-mythbuster-automake-pains> In addition, the Fedora packagers have already decided to patch their Automake 1.13.1 to reinstate the AM_CONFIG_HEADER and AM_PROG_CC_STDC macros (plus other macros that I don't believe it's worth worrying about): <http://www.spinics.net/lists/fedora-devel/msg176098.html> <http://www.mail-archive.com/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/msg53030.html> <http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/automake.git/commit/?id=ffe6bc39> So, rather than having one more incompatibility floating around, we better mirror that change (or, actually, its relevant parts) in the upstream. * m4/obsolete-err.m4 (AM_CONFIG_HEADER, AM_PROG_CC_STDC): Revert to the older semantics, plus a runtime warning in the 'obsolete' category. * t/backcompat6.sh: Use AM_CONFIG_HEADER once again. * t/am-config-header-no-more.sh: Rename ... * t/am-config-header.sh: ... like this, and adjust. * t/am-prog-cc-stdc-no-more.sh: Rename ... * t/am-prog-cc-stdc.sh: ... like this, and adjust. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust. * NEWS: Update.

1c48cbe0 | 2013-01-01 23:06:36 | docs: re-introduce mention of two-args AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation Albeit obsolescent and raising warnings in the 'obsolete' category, that usage is still supported, and will need to be until Autoconf improves its handling of configure-time-generated package version numbers. So it's better to explicitly document it again, stating that it is obsoleted but still working (and why), rather then leaving it as Yet Another Undocumented Feature (that will mysteriously and suddenly break some random day in the future). It's worth giving some background about how we ended up in the situation that this patch fixes. We had originally removed support for the long-deprecated two-args AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation (see commit v1.12-67-ge186355). Before that removal could land in a released Automake version, Bob Friesenhahn made a quite compelling point that the two-args AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation could still be useful for modern, maintained packages like GraphicsMagick, at least until Autoconf is fixed to offer better support for "dynamic" package versions (see commit v1.12.2-245-g2abe183 for more in-depth rationales and references). However, in that commit we didn't revert the removal of the *documentation* for this two-arguments AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE invocation (and no rationale for not doing so was given in the commit message). Time to remedy that.

9c07d892 | 2012-12-30 11:04:39 | obsolete: better error message if AM_PROG_CC_STDC is used In Automake 1.13, the long-deprecated (since 2002) macro AM_PROG_CC_STDC has been removed. Such a removal, albeit sensible and justified, was probably done in a too-abrupt way, since it didn't turn the pre-existing warning messages into fatal error messages, but simply dropped the macro definition, so that remaining usages of it would cause unclear error messages, e.g.: configure.ac:4: warning: macro 'AM_PROG_CC_STDC' not found in library from aclocal, and: configure.ac:4: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_CC_STDC If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. from autoconf. In an attempt to mitigate this issue, we re-add an AM_PROG_CC_STDC definition that simply raises a *clear* error message when the macro is used. * t/am-prog-cc-stdc-no-more.sh: New test. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add it. * m4/obsolete-err.m4: Add the new "error-raising" definition for AM_PROG_CC_STDC; the error message is a variation of the one already present in the older version of this macro, before it got removed in commit 'v1.12-15-gd2ca168'. * NEWS: Update.

8e921bf8 | 2012-12-30 10:33:23 | obsolete: better error message if AM_CONFIG_HEADER is used In Automake 1.13, the long-deprecated macro AM_CONFIG_HEADER (deprecated since 2002) has been removed in favour of AC_CONFIG_HEADERS. However, the removal was done without a proper deprecation period, and that caused packages upgrading to Automake 1.13 to fail with very unclear error messages, e.g.: configure.ac:4: warning: macro 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER' not found in library from aclocal, and: configure.ac:4: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONFIG_HEADER If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.

27eb4254 | 2012-12-19 14:51:58 | ylwrap: various fixes Rename properly header guards in generated header files, instead of leaving Y_TAB_H. Convert header guards in implementation files. Because ylwrap failed to rename properly #include in the implementation files, current versions of Bison (e.g., 2.7) duplicate the generated header file in the implementation file. The header guard then protects the implementation file from duplicate definitions from the header file. Generate header guards with a single '_' for series of non alphabetic characters, instead of several. This is what Bison does. Makes the test t/yacc-d-basic.sh pass again. * lib/ylwrap (guard): Properly honor $1 to rename properly the header guards. Keep a single _ instead of several. (rename_sed): Rename as... (sed_fix_filenames): this. Suggested by Stefano Lattarini. (sed_fix_header_guards): New. Use it. | |
