    Message : Can put version in AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS. Bug fixes

  • NEWS
  • New in 0.30:
    * Bug fixes
    * configure.in scanner knows about AC_PATH_XTRA, AC_OUTPUT ":" syntax
    * Beginnings of a test suite
    * Automatically adds -I options for $(srcdir), ".", and path to config.h
    * Doesn't print anything when running
    * Beginnings of MAINT_CHARSET support
    * Can specify version in AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS
    
    New in 0.29:
    * Many bug fixes
    * More sophisticated configure.in scanning; now understands ALLOCA and
      LIBOBJS directly, handles AC_CONFIG_HEADER more precisely, etc.
    * TEXINFOS and MANS now obsolete; use info_TEXINFOS and man_MANS instead.
    * CONFIG_HEADER variable now obsolete
    * Can handle multiple Texinfo sources
    * Allow hierarchies deeper than 2.  From Gord Matzigkeit.
    * HEADERS variable no longer needed; now can put .h files directly into
      foo_SOURCES variable.
    * Automake automatically rebuilds files listed in AC_OUTPUT.  The
      corresponding ".in" files are included in the distribution.
