fee9a828 | 2022-03-13 00:12:23 | doc: refer to automake manual in all man pages Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/54363. There is no "aclocal" manual as it's all integrated into the automake manual, so have all the help2man calls force automake as the manual. * doc/local.mk: Use --info-page=automake for man pages. | |

ff230b29 | 2022-02-24 22:25:45 | automake: fall back gracefully when texinfo inputs don't exist Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/54063. The function scanning for @setfilename will fall back to a default value if the input doesn't have one defined. But we need to handle the case where the file doesn't even exist before falling back. * bin/automake.in: Scan /dev/null for @setfilename if input doesn't exist. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add txinfo-no-setfilename-no-inputs.sh. * t/txinfo-no-setfilename-no-inputs.sh: New test. | |

d747a66a | 2022-02-20 19:06:55 | m4: rework silent-rules macros to avoid double expansion Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/32868. The AM_SILENT_RULES macro defines all the silent-rules related setup. It's also called by users to change the default verbosity level. This leads to a quirk where automake calls it, expands the full context, and then users call it, and it's fully expanded again. Instead, let's rename AM_SILENT_RULES to _AM_SILENT_RULES and move the initialization logic to late in the configure stage. This allows the user-centric AM_SILENT_RULES call to expand into a single line to set the default verbosity. * m4/init.m4: Switch to _AM_SILENT_RULES. * m4/silent.m4: Rename AM_SILENT_RULES to _AM_SILENT_RULES. Delay evaluation of AM_SILENT_RULES to the end. Define new AM_SILENT_RULES to set default rules verbosity. * t/silent-defaults.sh: New tests. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add t/silent-defaults.sh. | |

a61eaf68 | 2022-02-24 00:52:08 | tests: make silent-custom regex a little more robust Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/32800. Have the regex match the entire path with word boundaries on both sides. This should reduce false positives when the full cwd happens to match parent directories. * t/silent-custom.sh: Update the header output regex. | |

bde43d04 | 2022-02-06 01:25:59 | py-compile: fix optimized compiling for Python 3.5+ Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/38043. Split the optimized compilation logic into a new section. This avoids trying to support multiple versions of major versions in a single script as it gets harder to verify new changes don't break old versions as time goes on. Now for Python 3.5+, compile with -O0 (which is "higher" than -O). * NEWS: Mention fix. * THANKS: Add Michal Górny. * lib/py-compile: Add new section for compiling Python 3.5+. | |

d5dc4e0a | 2022-02-23 00:44:11 | manual: mention LT_INIT The AC_PROG_LIBTOOL macro name is the old/deprecated one, so include LT_INIT here too to avoid confusing people who have switched. * doc/automake.texi: Add LT_INIT after AC_PROG_LIBTOOL. | |
|
c62e7230 | 2022-02-20 23:30:39 | automake: allow required files to be in subdirs Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/20300. The internal method for caching path lookups expects the $filename to only be a filename. If it's actually a subdir/file itself, then the cache logic gets confused, and it never matches. This manifests as AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE([subdir/file]) claiming that the subdir/file path doesn't exist even when it does. Before we process any required files, since we already construct the full path locally, reset the dir & file inputs to the final values. * bin/automake.in: Split dir & file name back out from the constructed required file path. * t/auxdir-subsubdir.sh: New test. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add t/auxdir-subsubdir.sh. | |

13ae585a | 2022-02-20 14:28:11 | tests: fix yacc C++ tests with some C++ compilers Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/20031. The C++ standard does not require symbols be placed into the global namespace, just in the std namespace. The GNU implementation will place symbols in both. For our specific code, we don't care either. Unfortunately, it looks like generated flex code assumes that some stdlib.h symbols (free, malloc, exit) are in the global namespace, even when compiling for C++. So when we include <cstdlib> but not <stdlib.h>, we might not get the symbols in the global namespace. We can workaround this by including stdlib.h in these tests without invalidating the point of the tests in general. * t/yacc-cxx.sh: Include stdlib.h. * t/yacc-d-cxx.sh: Likewise. * t/yacc-mix-c-cxx.sh: Likewise. | |

8abf0894 | 2022-02-20 13:28:48 | automake: support embedded \# in variable appends Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/7610. Use of \# is not portable. POSIX does not provide any way of retaining the # marker in variables. There is wide spread support for \# though in GNU & BSD Make implementations. Today, with plain variable assignments, Automake leaves the line alone: foo = blah\#blah This will leave it to the implementation to decide what to do. But if you try to append to it, Automake follows POSIX and strips it: foo = blah\#blah foo += what -> foo = blah\ what Instead, let's issue a portability warning whenever \# is used, even if it isn't being appended, and do not strip the \# when appending. Now: foo = blah\#blah foo += what -> warning: escaping \# comment markers is not portable -> foo = blah\#blah what * NEWS: Mention change in \# handling. * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm: Do not strip # if escaped. * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Warn if \# is used. * t/comment12.sh: New test. * t/comments-escaped-in-var.sh: New test. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add comment12.sh & comments-escaped-in-var.sh. | |

38da1d90 | 2022-02-17 04:35:03 | python: use xargs -n when uninstalling files Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/53340. If the system has xargs, then utilize it to uninstall files to stay within long command line limits. If the system doesn't have xargs, fall back to running the remove command one at a time. Since every reasonable system should have `xargs -n`, and POSIX requires it, the fallback probably rarely gets used, so don't bother optimizing. * lib/am/inst-vars.am: Use am__xargs_n to call rm -f on the files. * lib/am/python.am: Drop am__base_list and for loop and let the am__uninstall_files_from_dir break up the long command lines. * m4/init.m4: Call _AM_PROG_XARGS_N. * m4/xargsn.m4: New test for `xargs -n`. | |

3099097d | 2022-02-17 03:50:55 | rm: handle -f w/no arguments gracefully Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/10828. Delete the configure check that would abort if `rm -f` does not work, and delete the plans to make this a hard requirement in the future. Instead, test to see if `rm -f` fails w/out arguments. If it does, define am__rm_f such that it always passes at least the "" argument when deleting files. If it doesn't fail, then we can omit the "". Then go through lib/am/ and update places where we use the pattern `test -z ... || rm -f ...` and replace with $(am__rm_f). * NEWS: Mention support for `rm -f` w/out arguments. * PLANS/rm-f-without-args.txt: Remove. * lib/am/check.am: Use new $(am__rm_f) helper. * lib/am/clean.am: Likewise. * lib/am/header-vars.am: Likewise. * lib/am/inst-vars.am: Likewise. * lib/am/libs.am: Likewise. * lib/am/ltlib.am: Likewise. * lib/am/progs.am: Likewise. * lib/am/texinfos.am: Likewise. * m4/init.m4: Delete `rm -f` checks and call _AM_PROG_RM_F. * m4/rmf.m4: Define new _AM_PROG_RM_F macro. * t/rm-f-probe.sh: Update test. | |

6097de0a | 2022-02-15 22:25:35 | python: fix exit status handling with uninstall The st variable is set at the top of this shell script, and then here is a pipeline where it tries to update it in the subshell. But since setting variables in a subshell doesn't propagate back up, it doesn't actually work. Have the final subshell in the pipeline manage its own exit status and exit with that so that the final status of the pipeline is the right value. * lib/am/python.am: Fix final subshell exit status passing. | |

720a1153 | 2022-02-12 03:41:06 | m4: speed up filesystem modification checks The current code sleeps at least 1 second to make sure the generated files are strictly newer than the source files. It does this for a few reasons: POSIX only guarantees that `sleep` accept integers, and filesystems have a history (c.f. Windows) of bad timestamp resolution. For the first part, we can easily probe sleep to see if it accepts a decimal number with a fractional part -- just run `sleep 0.001`. For the second part, we can create two files and then run sleep in a loop to see when one is considered newer than the other. For many projects, this 1 second delay is largely amortized by the rest of the configure script. Autoconf lends itself to being both large & slow. But in projects with many smallish configure scripts with many cached vars, the time to rerun is dominated by this single sleep call. For example, building libgloss against a compiler with many (60+) multilib configurations, we see: [Using sleep 1] $ time ./config.status real 2m28.164s user 0m33.651s sys 0m9.083s [Using sleep 0.1] $ time ./config.status real 0m39.569s user 0m33.517s sys 0m8.969s And in case anyone wonders, going below 0.1s doesn't seem to make a statistically significant difference, at least in this configuration. It appears to be within "noise" limits. [Using sleep 0.001] $ time ./config.status real 0m39.760s user 0m33.342s sys 0m9.080s * NEWS: Mention updated timestamp checking. * m4/sanity.m4: Determine whether `sleep` accepts fractional seconds. Determine (roughly) the filesystem timestamp resolution. Use this to sleep less when waiting for generated file timestamps to update. | |

If users have interactive site file logic, the lispdir probing can hang, as can the compilation of elisp files. Use --no-site-file to disable loading any of that possible user logic. * NEWS: Note emacs --no-site-file change. * doc/automake.texi: Run emacs with --no-site-file. * lib/am/lisp.am: Likewise. * m4/lispdir.m4: Likewise. | |

79d03908 | 2018-01-19 16:30:32 | tests: do not assume AM_MAKEINFOHTMLFLAGS is used in non-html targets Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/30172. Since AM_MAKEINFOHTMLFLAGS overrides AM_MAKEINFOFLAGS only for html targets, make sure we restore the hacked up makefile before testing the non-html formats. This normally doesn't cause a problem for most people, but if their tex install doesn't work correctly, texi2dvi will fallback to running $MAKEINFO and using invalid flags in the process. * THANKS: Add Mathieu Lirzin. * t/txinfo-many-output-formats.sh: Restore Makefile.am after testing html targets. * t/txinfo-many-output-formats-vpath.sh: Likewise. | |

c1b799a0 | 2022-01-24 02:53:13 | texi: pass automatic -I to dvi & pdf generation Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/23599. When generating info/html pages, automake adds -I flags to source dirs that contain the texi files, but it doesn't do this for dvi or pdf formats. Instead, automake has been relying on texi2dvi to use makeinfo for expanding macros, and it hasn't done that by default in a long time. Since adding --expand to the texi2dvi call is undesirable (due to bad and unpredictable BEHAVIOR), pass those automatic -I flags directly to TEXI2DVI & TEXI2PDF so they work regardless of --expand behavior. We have to keep the MAKEINFO= setting around as texi2dvi might itself fall back to it if the version of tex is old or broken. * bin/automake.in: Add comment about $makeinfoflags usage. * doc/automake.texi: Mention automatic -I subdir flags. * lib/am/texibuild.am: Pass %MAKEINFOFLAGS% to TEXI2DVI & TEXI2PDF. * t/txinfo-subdir-pr343.sh: Check for -I subdir usage. | |

Based on the cadence of Automake releases, add the current Python release (3.10), the current Python development (3.11), and then 4 more versions on top of that. It doesn't hurt to check for a few extra versions here since this is the fallback logic when the main `python` and `python3` programs aren't found. * m4/python.m4: Add python3.10 - python3.15. * NEWS: Mention new Python versions. | |

cd995fe6 | 2022-01-24 01:02:41 | tests: clear autotools env vars Fixes automake bug https://bugs.gnu.org/16714. The testsuite will try and retain these env vars when recursively running itself, but doesn't distinguish between vars coming from the env where the tests were launched. This breaks if the user happens to `export ACLOCAL=alocal` before `make check`. This gets a little more confusing in that the Makefile appears to export these already: ACLOCAL = ".../automake/pre-inst-env" aclocal-1.16 In reality, while those are set in the make execution environment, they aren't exported into the process environment, so children (i.e. shell processes in make rules) don't have them set. That's why tests work for most people today. However, if the user has first exported "ACLOCAL" in the parent make environment (regardless of value), then make's value will reset the process environment, and then that will leak into the children. That's why we see errors that look like the makefile env vars are leaking for these people. At any rate, the fix is to update the test harness to clear these vars that the test suite relies upon, especially the ones that are also set in the Makefiles. That includes AUTOUPDATE even though it currently isn't used inside any of the tests. * t/local.mk: Add ACLOCAL, AUTOCONF, AUTOHEADER, AUTOMAKE, and AUTOUPDATE to the env unset list. * t/ax/runtest.in: Likewise. | |
