Stefano Lattarini a4eeb532 2011-11-19T19:53:57 texinfo: work around Solaris 10 xpg4 shell bug in install rules * lib/am/texinfos.am (install-html-am): Use an extra variable indirection to work around a bug in Solaris 10 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh. Bug revealed by a failure of `txinfo21.test'. See also: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2011-11/msg00005.html> <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10026#23>
Stefano Lattarini 4bae0177 2011-11-17T09:04:10 configure: report perl version in config.log * configure.ac: Report the version of the selected perl interpreter in config.log; this should render the logs more informative.
Stefano Lattarini eaa53725 2011-11-13T10:25:43 tests: fix spurious failure with older install-info * tests/install-info-dir.test (foo.texi): Also add proper `@settitle', `@dircategory' and `@direntry' directive, otherwise older versions of `install-info' (e.g., 4.8) will fail to create the `dir' index file in ${infodir}. Problem revealed by a failure on NetBSD 5.1.
Stefano Lattarini 75ae56f0 2011-11-12T22:24:36 maintcheck: fix spurious failure in 'color2.test' * tests/color2.test: Avoid creative quoting to avoid a spurious failure of the `sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check.
Stefano Lattarini eae36caf 2011-11-12T18:41:53 tests: fix spurious error in 'uninstall-fail.test' on Solaris * tests/uninstall-fail.test: Solaris 10 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh can add a line number before the `:' in the error messages issued by shell builtins. Account for that in our grepping of make output.
Stefano Lattarini 77d7a6f7 2011-11-12T18:25:38 tests: fix typo in 'uninstall-fail.test' * tests/uninstall-fail.test: Always use `$rm_f_is_silent_on_error' instead of the bogus `$rm_f_is_silent_on_failure'.
Stefano Lattarini 18f250e8 2011-11-10T12:43:54 tests: avoid a spurious failure of 'ltinit.test' MinGW * tests/ltinit.test: Be laxer in grepping configure output, to avoid spurious failures on systems which lack POSIX dynamic linking (e.g., MinGW), or when cross-compiling for such systems. See also commit `v1.11-855-ge9e5d4a'. Report and suggestion from Peter Rosin.
Stefano Lattarini c6151471 2011-11-08T19:50:29 tests: testsuite is now safe to run with dmake in parallel mode * tests/defs.in: Unset variables DMAKE_CHILD, DMAKE_DEF_PRINTED and DMAKE_MAX_JOBS, which are exported by Solaris dmake when run in parallel mode, and which might confuse make processes spawned by our testsuite.
Stefano Lattarini d9ea65c0 2011-11-08T18:41:30 tests: fix spurious failures w.r.t. parallel make and colorization * tests/color2.test: Skip the test if the $MAKE program fails to consider the standard output as a tty when spawned by `expect'. This is required for make implementations, like FreeBSD make and Solaris dmake, that redirect the output of recipes to temporary files or pipes when run in parallel mode. Since we are at it, simplify the detection of a working `expect' program, and throw in other minor simplifications.
Stefano Lattarini 549f3844 2011-11-07T16:07:25 Merge branch 'fix-pr9579' into maint * fix-pr9579: tests: fix spurious failure in 'distcheck-override-infodir.test'
Stefano Lattarini 00eb9d62 2011-11-07T16:05:48 tests: fix spurious failure in 'distcheck-override-infodir.test' * tests/distcheck-override-infodir.test ($required): Add 'install-info'.
Stefano Lattarini f6195336 2011-11-07T15:59:43 tests: avoid another failure of 'uninstall-fail.test' on Solaris * tests/uninstall-fail.test: On Solaris 10, if `/bin/rm' is run with the `-f' option, it doesn't print any error message when failing to remove a file (due to e.g., "Permission denied"). Yikes. Cater to this incompatibility, by relaxing the test when a faulty `rm' is detected.
Stefano Lattarini 1ba50d12 2011-11-03T11:28:56 Merge branch 'fix-pr9890' into maint * fix-pr9890: maint-mode: fix botched configure messages
Stefano Lattarini a45c6364 2011-10-29T12:15:59 maint-mode: fix botched configure messages This change fixes automake bug#9890. * m4/maintainer.m4 (AM_MAINTAINER_MODE): Fix the "checking ..." configure message related to the enabling/disabling of maintainer mode. * tests/help-maintainer.test: Renamed ... * tests/maintmode-configure-msg.test: ... to this, and extended to cover the fixed bug. Also, since we are at it, make grepping of configure help screens stricter, and throw in some few other changes to reduce code duplication and enhance readability. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. * THANKS: Update with Zack's new e-mail address. Report and initial patch by Zack Weinberg, test cases added by Stefano Lattarini.

Stefano Lattarini cb9f2c28 2011-10-24T19:45:42 Merge branch 'fix-pr8485-and-pr8526' into maint * fix-pr8485-and-pr8526: deps: partially revert commit `v1.11-512-geeee551'
Stefano Lattarini 1ec16686 2011-10-23T13:19:21 info: allow user to inhibit creation/update of '${infodir}/dir' With this change, we allow the user to request the install-info rules not to update the `${infodir}/dir' file, by exporting the environment variable `AM_UPDATE_INFO_DIR' to the value "no". 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). This change fixes automake bug#9773. See also Debian Bug#543992. * lib/am/texinfos.am: Don't look anymore at the output of `install-info --version' to decide whether to use it to update the `${infodir}/dir' or not; instead, honour the environment variable `AM_UPDATE_INFO_DIR'. * tests/install-info-dir.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * tests/defs: Also unset `AM_UPDATE_INFO_DIR', to avoid unwanted interferences from the environment. * doc/automake.texi (Texinfo): Update. * NEWS: Likewise. * THANKS: Likewise. Report by Jonathan Nieder.

Stefano Lattarini beef7a66 2011-02-01T09:52:43 dejagnu: allow the package developer to extend site.exp Fixes automake bug#7873. * lib/am/dejagnu.am (site.exp): Depend from the files listed in $(EXTRA_DEJAGNU_SITE_CONFIG), if any. Append their contents to the generated site.exp (still preserving user edits). * doc/automake.texi (Dejagnu Tests): Update. * tests/dejagnu-siteexp-append.test: New test. * tests/dejagnu-siteexp-extend.test: Likewise. * tests/dejagnu-siteexp-useredit.test: Likewise.ù * NEWS: Update. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

Peter Rosin e98cba8d 2011-10-21T08:39:48 * THANKS: Fix whitespace issue.
Stefano Lattarini 40c34328 2011-10-20T22:25:45 deps: partially revert commit `v1.11-512-geeee551' This change partly reverts commit "Create subdirs for generated sources even when not dep tracking", of 2011-04-02. That commit had caused the bugs #8485 and #8526. Since we are nearing the bug-fixing automake release 1.11.2, the safest policy at the moment is to just revert the problematic hunks: an older, known bug is better than a regression. * automake.in (handle_single_transform): Don't add a dirstamp dependency, even when $object is derived and lands in a subdir. * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Add lex-subobj-nodep.test, remove yacc-dist-nobuild-subdir.test.

Stefano Lattarini 65c01584 2011-10-20T21:31:09 tests: fix spurious failures with "chatty" make implementations * tests/distcheck-missing-m4.test: On failure, some make implementations (such as Solaris make) print the whole failed recipe on standard output. This was causing a spurious failure in the checks grepping the output from make. Work around this. * tests/distcheck-outdated-m4.test: Likewise.
Stefano Lattarini 100e9740 2011-10-20T17:45:12 Merge branch 'aclocal-path' into maint * aclocal-path: tests: fix spurious failure on fast machines
Stefano Lattarini f8f8ec0e 2011-10-20T17:44:04 tests: fix spurious failure on fast machines * tests/aclocal-path-precedence.test: Also remove the `configure' script between different test runs, to ensure it is always remade by autoconf. Add proper explicative comments.
Stefano Lattarini d91f357d 2011-10-20T17:31:11 tests: avoid spurious failure of 'uninstall-fail.test' on Solaris * tests/uninstall-fail.test: All the Solaris 10 shells (/bin/sh, /bin/ksh, and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh), upon failing to chdir to a directory with the `cd' builtin, print a message like: "sh: /root: permission denied" which doesn't report the `cd' builtin anywhere. Relax the grepping of the error message accordingly.

Stefano Lattarini 8c021e00 2011-10-19T13:42:40 tests: avoid spurious failure of 'uninstall-fail.test' on Cygwin * tests/uninstall-fail.test: Be sure to really skip this test on systems that allows files to be removed from unwritable directories. Motivated by a spurious failure on Cygwin 1.5.
Stefano Lattarini ded01c88 2011-01-13T20:33:26 dejagnu: ensure 'srcdir' is defined as a relative directory This change fixes automake bug#7833. * lib/am/dejagnu.am (check-DEJAGNU): Prefer using plain $(srcdir) over calculating and using the absolute path of $(srcdir). * tests/dejagnu-relative-srcdir.test: New test. * tests/dejagnu-absolute-builddir.test: Likewise. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. Report by Ian Lance Taylor. Suggestions by Ralf Wildenhues.
Stefano Lattarini f5b69b8a 2011-10-18T21:05:24 tests: avoid spurious failure in 'parallel-tests3.test' This fixes automake bug#8788. * tests/parallel-tests3.test: To ensure that the serial run of the dummy testsuite is still ongoing when the parallel run has terminated, use `kill -0', not a bare `kill'. This will prevent a testsuite crash on NetBSD 5.1, and a testsuite hang on FreeBSD 8.2. Also, since we are at it, try harder to avoid possible hangs of the script in other unusual situations.
Stefano Lattarini 7e5ae808 2011-10-18T17:53:21 tests: fix spurious failure with FreeBSD make and Yacc in VPATH * tests/subpkg.test: Some cosmetic adjustments. Move the tests checking that $(YLWRAP) is defined and installed properly when ylwrap is in a default auxdir found in a parent package ... * tests/subpkg-yacc.test: ... into this new test, which carefully avoids to trigger the known bug#7884 (combo FreeBSD make plus Yacc plus VPATH build). * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

Stefano Lattarini 02ab80ce 2011-10-17T17:45:41 tests: fix spurious failure with autoconf 2.62 * tests/aclocal-path-precedence.test: Rewrite configure.in, rather than appending to it, to avoid spurious failures (at least with autoconf 2.62) due to repeated calls to AC_INIT. Also, add package name and version arguments to AC_INIT, to avoid spurious errors from automake.
Stefano Lattarini ae412c38 2011-10-16T10:50:47 docs: avoid using colon character inside arguments of @pxref Fixes automake bug#9753 * doc/automake.texi (VPATH Builds): Avoid using colon character `:' inside arguments of @pxref, as this can cause problems in the generated `.info' files, and such an usage will be explicitly forbidden by future texinfo documentation. * THANKS: Update. Reported by Дилян Палаузов.
Stefano Lattarini ba0c477b 2011-10-07T11:08:15 parallel-tests: warn on conditional TEST_EXTENSIONS definition Before this change, automake would have still bailed out, but with a confusing error message (about an invalid redefinition of TEST_EXTENSIONS). * automake.in (handle_tests): Warn explicitly if TEST_EXTENSIONS has conditional contents. * tests/test-extensions-con.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS: Update.

Stefano Lattarini b9b79d88 2011-10-06T21:30:04 parallel-tests: don't allow @substitutions@ in TEST_EXTENSIONS Even after the last commit `v1.11-476-g90bea64', the checks performed by automake on entries in $(TEST_EXTENSIONS) tried to allow for @substitited@ stuff. This however ends up allowing quite brittle setups, which, most importantly, are of no real practical usefulness anyway. So it's better to just disallow @substitutions@ in TEST_EXTENSIONS altogether, offering a clear error message, instead of risking weird bugs and unexpected behaviors in the generated Makefile.in. * automake.in ($TEST_EXTENSION_PATTERN): Turned from a regular expression ... (is_valid_test_extension): ... into this subroutine. Don't allow generic @substitutions@ anymore (possibly making an exception for `@EXEEXT@' under the proper circumstances). * tests/test-extensions.test: Adjust and extend.

Stefano Lattarini 39a9fd16 2011-10-06T16:21:16 tests: fix spurious failure in 'insthook.test' * tests/insthook.test (Makefile.am): Add a proper `uninstall-hook' target to remove the symlink created by the `install-exec-hook' target; this prevents "make distcheck" from failing spuriously. Since we are at it, delete an extra blank line, and add a trailing `:' command.

Before this change, automake would have issued a confusing error messages (about invalid or non-POSIX variables being defined), and in some situations would have even produced a broken `Makefile.in' file.

Fix inverted semantics (`.java' files are expected *not* to be distributed by default, not the other way round). Fix various typos in the name of the `.java' files. Correct other minor blunders. Improve some comments.

Stefano Lattarini 5e463108 2011-09-11T00:42:53 tests: fix spurious failure on fast machines * tests/aclocal-acdir.test: Avoid spurious failures due to caching issues, by cleaning the autom4te cache between all the aclocal invocations, and by always calling autoconf with the `--force' flag.

Stefano Lattarini 2d5a0d87 2011-09-01T17:42:41 coverage: distcheck-hook to catch missing/outdated *.m4 files Related to automake bug#9037. * tests/distcheck-missing-m4.test: New test. * tests/distcheck-outdated-m4.test: Likewise. * tests/distcheck-hook-m4.am: New data file, used by the new tests. * tests/Makefile.am (distcheck-m4-missing.log, distcheck-m4-outdated.log): Depend on it.

Stefano Lattarini 30f99cbd 2011-09-05T17:37:44 aclocal: more granularity in acdir overriding Before this change, using the `--acdir' option caused aclocal to redefine both the directory of automake-provided m4 macros and the directory of third-party system-wide m4 macros. With this change, we deprecate the `--acdir' aclocal option, and introduce two new options `--automake-acdir' and `--system-acdir', to allow for more granularity. * aclocal.in (@automake_includes, @system_includes, @user_includes): Fix and extend comments. (usage): Update. (handle_acdir_option): New function. (parse_arguments): Recognize new options `--system-acdir' and `automake-acdir', and handle `--acdir' using the new function above. Simplify logic by assuming that the directory of third-party system-wide m4 files always exists. * tests/aclocal.in: Update to use the new options, instead of the deprecated. `--acdir'. * m4/dirlist: Move ... * m4/acdir/dirlist: ... here. * m4/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Update. (m4datadir): Rename ... (automake_acdir): ... to this. Accordingly, ... (dist_m4data_DATA): ... rename this ... (dist_automake_ac_DATA): ... to this. (system_acdir): New, directory. (dist_system_ac_DATA): New, defined to an empty value; this will ensure that the $(system_acdir) directory will be created by "make install". * tests/aclocal.test: Remove check about the `--print-ac-dir' option of aclocal, it has been moved into ... * tests/aclocal-print-acdir.test: ... this new test, and quite extended. * tests/aclocal-acdir.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the new tests. * NEWS, bootstrap: Update. * doc/automake.texi (aclocal Options, Macro Search Path): Update.

Stefano Lattarini b3afcecf 2011-08-12T18:29:28 parallel-tests: no more spurious successes for FreeBSD make Work around a bug of FreeBSD make bug that was causing the automake-generated "check" target to complete with success even if some tests failed; this happened only when FreeBSD make was run in concurrent mode (as in, e.g., "make -j2 check"). The bug is not present in NetBSD make. This change fixes automake bug#9245: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9245> See also FreeBSD PR bin/159730: <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=159730> * lib/am/check.am [%?PARALLEL_TESTS%] $(TEST_SUITE_LOG): Use a more "safe" (and apparently redundant) idiom to exit with error, so that the non-zero exit status is picked up also by FreeBSD make when it's running in concurrent mode. * NEWS: Update. * tests/check-concurrency-bug9245.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
