Andrew Eikum dda82273 2012-05-01T09:18:56 cosmetics: fix typo in aclocal m4 directory README * m4/acdir/README: Add forgotten "if". * THANKS: Update. Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes Signed-off-by: Andrew Eikum <aeikum@codeweavers.com> Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
Stefano Lattarini b51a9afe 2012-02-22T10:12:02 aclocal: don't create /usr/share/aclocal as empty Related to automake bug#10791. Since automake 1.11.2, aclocal no longer succeeds if the system acdir '${datadir}/aclocal' (i.e., "/usr/share/aclocal" when ${prefix} is "/usr") does not exist. So we now have a directory *installed empty by default*, but whose existence is required by aclocal in order for it to function at all. This might be confusing, and sounds like asking for trouble in the long term. So we now also install a simple README file in that directory, which briefly explains its purpose and warn that its existence is required by the normal aclocal functioning. * m4/acdir/README: New file. * m4/Makefile.am (dist_system_ac_DATA): Add it. * m4/acdir/.placeholder: Delete, no more needed. * m4/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it. * THANKS: Update.
Stefano Lattarini 8ab0c949 2011-09-03T21:03:36 installcheck: support it in our own testsuite * NEWS: Update. * tests/defs-static.in ($am_running_installcheck): New variable. Initialize it to a default of "no", and sanity-check its value. ($am_datadir, $am_docdir, $am_automake_acdir, $am_system_acdir, $am_bindir, $am_scriptdir, $am_pkgvdir): New variables, initialized from AC_SUBST'ed values which are adaptively chosen depending on whether the testsuite is running in "simple" mode or in "installcheck" mode. ($MISSING): Remove, it's not really required by the testsuite. ($PATH): Update using `$am_bindir', not `$testbuilddir'. * Makefile.am (installcheck-local): New target. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am (installcheck-local): New target. (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, AM_PL_LOG_FLAGS): Adaptively choose the `-I' flags for perl based on whether the tests are being run by "make check" or "make installcheck". * tests/Makefile.am (installcheck-local): New target. (defs-static): Generate it at make time, not at configure time, in order to correctly resolve all the indirections in the AC_SUBST'd variables; done with the help of ... (do_subst): ... this new macro. (EXTRA_DIST): Explicitly distribute `defs-static.in'. (CLEANFILES): Remove `defs-static'. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove `tests/defs-static'. (AC_SUBST): Substitute also `automake_acdir', `system_acdir', `scriptdir' and `amdir' to proper values. * lib/Makefile.am (scriptdir): Don't explicitly define anymore. * lib/am/Makefile.am (amdir): Likewise. * m4/acdir/dirlist: Remove, it's not needed anymore. Instead use ... * m4/acdir/.placeholder: ... this file. * m4/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Update. (automake_acdir, system_acdir): Don't explicitly define anymore. * tests/aclocal-print-acdir.test: Use new `$am_...dir' variables, instead of hard-coding values with $testsrcdir and $testbuilddir, to test more faithfully under "make installcheck". * tests/amhello-binpkg.test: Likewise. * tests/amhello-cflags.test: Likewise. * tests/amhello-cross-compile.test: Likewise. * tests/ansi2knr-no-more.test: Likewise. * tests/autodist-stamp-vti.test: Likewise. * tests/auxdir.test: Likewise. * tests/check2.test: Likewise. * tests/copy.test: Likewise. * tests/multlib.test: Likewise. * tests/obsolete.test: Likewise. * tests/parallel-tests-interrupt.test: Likewise. * tests/repeated-options.test: Likewise. * tests/suffix5.test: Likewise. * tests/tap-doc2.test: Likewise. * tests/txinfo22.test: Likewise. * tests/vtexi3.test: Likewise. * tests/defs: Likewise. Also, print the values of `$using_tap' and `$am_running_installcheck', to simplify debugging, and do some related code movings and tweakings. * tests/aclocal3.test: Update to avoid possible spurious failures when running under "make installcheck". * tests/warnings-unknown.test: Likewise. * tests/location.test: Likewise, and improve debugging input since we are at it. * tests/acloca10.test: Adapt and tweak to work also during a "make installcheck", and not to require a pre-populated `dirlist' file. * tests/acloca18.test: Likewise. * tests/dirlist2.test: Likewise. * tests/dirlist.test: Likewise, and remove an obsolete comment. * tests/README: Update. * tests/dirlist-abspath.test: New test. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update.
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.
