|
|---|
| 3 | * Fix renaming of #line directives in ylwrap.
|
|---|
| 4 | * Rebuild with Autoconf 2.59. (1.7.8 was not installable with pdksh.)
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 8 | * Remove spurious blank lines in cleaning rules introduced in 1.7.7.
|
|---|
| 9 | * Fix detection of Debian's install-info, broken since version 1.5.
|
|---|
| 10 | (Debian bug #213524).
|
|---|
| 11 | * Honor -module if it appears in AM_LDFLAGS (i.e., relax name checking)
|
|---|
| 12 | This was only done for libfoo_LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS in previous versions.
|
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.7:
|
|---|
| 16 | * The implementation of automake's --no-force option is unreliable,
|
|---|
| 17 | so this option is ignored in this version. A real fix will appear in
|
|---|
| 18 | Automake 1.8. (Debian Bug #206299)
|
|---|
| 19 | * AM_PATH_PYTHON: really check the whole list of interpreters if no
|
|---|
| 20 | argument is given. (PR/399)
|
|---|
| 21 | * Do not warn about leading `_' in variable names, even with -Wportability.
|
|---|
| 22 | * Support user redefinitions of TEXINFO_TEX.

|---|
| 23 | * depcomp: support AIX Compiler version 6.
|
|---|
| 24 | * Fix missing rebuilds during `make dist' with BSD make.
|
|---|
| 25 | (Could produce tarballs containing out-of-date files.)
|
|---|
| 26 | * Resurrect multilib support.
|
|---|
| 27 | * Noteworthy manual updates:
|
|---|
| 28 | - Extending aclocal: how to write m4 macros that won't trigger warnings
|
|---|
| 29 | with Automake 1.8.
|
|---|
| 30 | - A Shared Library: Rewrite and split into subsections.
|
|---|
| 31 | |
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.6:
|
|---|
| 34 | * Fix depcomp's icc mode for ICC 7.1.
|
|---|
| 35 | * Diagnose calls to AC_CONFIG_FILES and friends with not enough arguments.

|---|
| 36 | * Fix maintainer-clean's removal of autom4te.cache in VPATH builds.
|
|---|
| 37 | * Fix AM_PATH_LISPDIR to work with POSIXLY_CORRECT=1.
|
|---|
| 38 | * Fix the location reported in some diagnostics related to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.

|
|---|
| 41 | |
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.5:
|
|---|
| 44 | * Update install-sh's license to remove an advertising clause.
|
|---|
| 45 | (Debian bug #191717)
|
|---|
| 46 | * Fix a bug introduced in 1.7.4, related to BUILT_SOURCE handling,
|
|---|
| 47 | that caused invalid Makefile.ins to be generated.
|
|---|
| 48 | * Make sure AM_MAKE_INCLUDE doesn't fail when a `doit' file exists.
|
|---|
| 49 | * New FAQ entry: renamed objects.
|
|---|
| 50 | |
|---|
| 51 |
|
|---|
| 52 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.4:
|
|---|
| 53 | * Tweak the TAGS rule to support Exuberant Ctags (in addition to
|
|---|
| 54 | the Emacs implementation)
|
|---|
| 55 | * Fix output of aclocal.m4 dependencies in subdirectories.
|
|---|
| 56 | * Use `mv -f' instead of `mv' in fastdep rules.
|
|---|
| 57 | * Upgrade mdate-sh to work on OS/2.
|
|---|
| 58 | * Don't byte-compile elisp files when ELCFILES is set empty.
|
|---|
| 59 | (this documented feature was broken by 1.7.3)
|
|---|
| 60 | * Diagnose trailing backslashes on last line of Makefile.am.
|
|---|
| 61 | * Diagnose whitespace following trailing backslashes.
|
|---|
| 62 | * Multiple tests are now correctly supported in DEJATOOL. (PR/388)
|
|---|
| 63 | * Fix rebuilt rules for AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile:Makefile.in:Makefile.bot])
|
|---|
| 64 | Makefiles. (PR/389)
|
|---|
| 65 | * `make install' will build `BUILT_SOURCES' first.
|
|---|
| 66 | * Minor documentation fixes.
|
|---|
| 67 | |
|---|
| 68 |
|
|---|
| 69 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.3:
|
|---|
| 70 | * Fix stamp files numbering (when using multiple AC_CONFIG_HEADERS).
|
|---|
| 71 | * Query distutils for `pythondir' and `pythonexecdir', instead of
|
|---|
| 72 | using an hardcoded path. This should allow builds on 64-bit
|
|---|
| 73 | distributions that usually use lib64/ instead of lib/.
|
|---|
| 74 | * AM_PATH_PYTHON will also search for python2.3.
|
|---|
| 75 | * elisp files are now built all at once instead of one by one. Besides
|
|---|
| 76 | incurring a speed-up, this is required to support interdependent elisp files.
|
|---|
| 77 | * Support for DJGPP:
|
|---|
| 78 | - `make distcheck' will now work in `_inst/' and `_build' instead
|
|---|
| 79 | of `=inst/' and `=build/'
|
|---|
| 80 | - use `_dirstamp' when the file-system doesn't support `.dirstamp'
|
|---|
| 81 | - install/uninstall `*.i[0-9][0-9]'-style info files
|
|---|
| 82 | - more changes that affect only the Automake package (not its output)
|
|---|
| 83 | * Fix some incompatibilities with upcoming perl-5.10.
|
|---|
| 84 | * Properly quote AC_PACKAGE_TARNAME and AC_PACKAGE_VERSION when defining
|
|---|
| 85 | PACKAGE and VERSION.
|
|---|
| 86 | * depcomp fixes:
|
|---|
| 87 | - dashmstdout and dashXmstdout modes: don't use `-o /dev/null', this
|
|---|
| 88 | is troublesome with gcc and Solaris compilers. (PR/385)
|
|---|
| 89 | - makedepend mode: work with Libtool. (PR/385 too)
|
|---|
| 90 | - support for ICC.
|
|---|
| 91 | * better support for unusual gettext setups, such as multiple po/ directories
|
|---|
| 92 | (PR/381):
|
|---|
| 93 | - Flag missing po/ and intl/ directories as warnings, not errors.
|
|---|
| 94 | - Disable these warnings if po/ does not exist.
|
|---|
| 95 | * Noteworthy manual updates:
|
|---|
| 96 | - New FAQ chapter.
|
|---|
| 97 | - Document how AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR interacts with missing files.
|
|---|
| 98 | (Debian Bug #39542)
|
|---|
| 99 | - Document `AM_YFLAGS = -d'. (PR/382)
|
|---|
| 100 | |
|---|
| 101 |
|
|---|
| 102 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.2:
|
|---|
| 103 | * Fix installation and uninstallation of Info files built in subdirectories.
|
|---|
| 104 | * Do not run `./configure --with-included-gettext' during `make distcheck'
|
|---|
| 105 | if AM_GNU_GETTEXT([external]) is used.
|
|---|
| 106 | * Correctly uninstall renamed man pages.
|
|---|
| 107 | * Do not strip escaped newline in variables defined in one condition
|
|---|
| 108 | and augmented in another condition.
|
|---|
| 109 | * Fix ansi2knr rules for LIBOBJS sources.
|
|---|
| 110 | * Clean all known Texinfo index files, not only those which appear to
|
|---|
| 111 | be used, because we cannot know wich indexes are used in included files.
|
|---|
| 112 | (PR/375, Debian Bug #168671)
|
|---|
| 113 | * Honor only the first @setfilename seen in a Texinfo file.
|
|---|
| 114 | * Treat "required file X not found" diagnostics as errors (exit status 1).
|
|---|
| 115 | * Don't complain that a required file is not found when it is a Makefile
|
|---|
| 116 | target. (PR/357)
|
|---|
| 117 | * Don't use single suffix inference rules when building `.info'-less
|
|---|
| 118 | Info files, for the sake of Solaris make.
|
|---|
| 119 | * The `check' target now depends on `$(BUILT_SOURCES)'. (PR/359)
|
|---|
| 120 | * Recognize multiple inference rules such as `.a.b .c.d:'. (PR/371)
|
|---|
| 121 | * Warn about multiple inference rules when -Wportability is used. (PR/372)
|
|---|
| 122 | * Fix building of deansified files from subdirectories. (PR/370)
|
|---|
| 123 | * Add missing `fi' in the .c->.obj rules.
|
|---|
| 124 | * Improve install-sh to work even when names contain spaces or certain
|
|---|
| 125 | (but not all) shell metachars.
|
|---|
| 126 | * Fix the following spurious failures in the test suite:
|
|---|
| 127 | depcomp2.test, gnits2.test, gnits3.test, python3.test, texinfo13.test
|
|---|
| 128 | * Noteworthy manual updates:
|
|---|
| 129 | - Augment the section about BUILT_SOURCES.
|
|---|
| 130 | - Mention that AM_PROG_CC_STDC is a relic that is better avoided today.
|
|---|
| 131 | |
|---|
| 132 |
|
|---|
| 133 | Bugs fixed in 1.7.1:
|
|---|
| 134 | * Honor `ansi2knr' for files built in subdirectories, or using per-targets
|
|---|
| 135 | flags.
|
|---|
| 136 | * Aclocal should now recognize macro names containing parentheses, e.g.
|
|---|
| 137 | AC_DEFUN([AC_LANG_PREPROC(Fortran 90)], [...]).
|
|---|
| 138 | * Erase *.sum and *.log files created by DejaGnu, during `make distclean'.
|
|---|
| 139 | (Debian Bug#153697)
|
|---|
| 140 | * Install Python files even if they were built. (PR/369)
|
|---|
| 141 | * Have stamp-vti dependent upon configure instead of configure.ac, as the
|
|---|
| 142 | version might not be defined in the latter. (PR/358)
|
|---|
| 143 | * Reorder arguments passed to a couple of commands, so things works
|
|---|
| 144 | when POSIXLY_CORRECT=1.
|
|---|
| 145 | * Fix a regex that can cause Perl to segfault on large input.
|
|---|
| 146 | (Debian Bug#162583)
|
|---|
| 147 | * Fix distribution of packages that have some sources defined conditionally,
|
|---|
| 148 | as in the `Conditional compilation using Automake conditionals' example
|
|---|
| 149 | of the manual.
|
|---|
| 150 | * Fix spurious test suite failures on IRIX.
|
|---|
| 151 | * Don't report a required variable as undefined if it has been
|
|---|
| 152 | defined conditionally for the "right" conditions.
|
|---|
| 153 | * Fix cleaning of the /tmp subdirectory used by `make distcheck', in case
|
|---|
| 154 | `make distcheck' fails.
|
|---|
| 155 | * Fix distribution of included Makefile fragment, so we don't create
|
|---|
| 156 | spurious directories in the distribution. (PR/366)
|
|---|
| 157 | * Don't complain that a target lacks `.$(EXEEXT)' when it has it.
|
|---|
| 158 | |
|---|
| 159 |
|
|---|
| 160 | New in 1.7:
|
|---|
| 161 | * Autoconf 2.54 is required.
|
|---|
| 162 | * `aclocal' and `automake' will no longer warn about obsolete
|
|---|
| 163 | configure macros. This is done by `autoconf -Wobsolete'.
|
|---|
| 164 | * AM_CONFIG_HEADER, AM_SYS_POSIX_TERMIOS and
|
|---|
| 165 | AM_HEADER_TIOCGWINSZ_NEEDS_SYS_IOCTL are obsolete (although still
|
|---|
| 166 | supported). You should use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS, AC_SYS_POSIX_TERMIOS,
|
|---|
| 167 | and AC_HEADER_TIOCGWINSZ instead. `autoupdate' can upgrade
|
|---|
| 168 | `configure.ac' for you.
|
|---|
| 169 | * Support for per-program and per-library `_CPPFLAGS'.
|
|---|
| 170 | * New `ctags' target (builds CTAGS files).
|
|---|
| 171 | * Support for -Wmumble and -Wno-mumble, where mumble is a warning category
|
|---|
| 172 | (see `automake --help' or the manual for a list of them).
|
|---|
| 173 | * Honor the WARNINGS environment variable.
|
|---|
| 174 | * Omit the call to depcomp when using gcc3: call the compiler directly.
|
|---|
| 175 | * A new option, std-options, tests that programs support --help and --version
|
|---|
| 176 | when `make installcheck' is run. This is enabled by --gnits.
|
|---|
| 177 | * Texinfo rules now support the `ps' and `pdf' targets.
|
|---|
| 178 | * Info files are now created in the build directory, not the source directory.
|
|---|
| 179 | * info_TEXINFOS supports files in subdirectories (this requires Texinfo 4.1
|
|---|
| 180 | or greater).
|
|---|
| 181 | * `make distcheck' will enforce DESTDIR support by attempting
|
|---|
| 182 | a DESTDIR install.
|
|---|
| 183 | * `+=' can be used in conditionals, even if the augmented variable
|
|---|
| 184 | was defined for another condition.
|
|---|
| 185 | * Makefile fragments (inserted with `include') are always distributed.
|
|---|
| 186 | * Use Autoconf's --trace interface to inspect configure.ac and get
|
|---|
| 187 | a more accurate view of it.
|
|---|
| 188 | * Add support for extending aclocal's default macro search path
|
|---|
| 189 | using a `dirlist' file within the aclocal directory.
|
|---|
| 190 | * automake --output-dir is deprecated.
|
|---|
| 191 | * The part of the distcheck target that checks whether uninstall actually
|
|---|
| 192 | removes all installed files has been moved in a separate target,
|
|---|
| 193 | distuninstallcheck, so it can be overridden easily.
|
|---|
| 194 | * Many bug fixes.
|
|---|
| 195 | |
|---|
| 196 |
|
|---|
| 197 | New in 1.6:
|
|---|
| 198 | * Autoconf 2.52 is required.
|
|---|
| 199 | * automake no longer run libtoolize.
|
|---|
| 200 | This is the job of autoreconf (from GNU Autoconf).
|
|---|
| 201 | * `dist' generates all the archive flavors, as did `dist-all'.
|
|---|
| 202 | * `dist-gzip' generates the Gzip tar file only.
|
|---|
| 203 | * Combining Automake Makefile conditionals no longer lead to a combinatorial
|
|---|
| 204 | explosion. Makefile.in's keep a reasonable size.
|
|---|
| 205 | * AM_FUNC_ERROR_AT_LINE, AM_FUNC_STRTOD, AM_FUNC_OBSTACK, AM_PTRDIFF_T
|
|---|
| 206 | are no longer shipped, since Autoconf 2.52 provides them (both as AM_
|
|---|
| 207 | and AC_).
|
|---|
| 208 | * `#line' of Lex and Yacc files are properly set.
|
|---|
| 209 | * EXTRA_DIST can contain generated directories.
|
|---|
| 210 | * Support for dot-less extensions in suffix rules.
|
|---|
| 211 | * The part of the distcheck target that checks whether distclean actually
|
|---|
| 212 | cleans all built files has been moved in a separate target, distcleancheck,
|
|---|
| 213 | so it can be overridden easily.
|
|---|
| 214 | * `make distcheck' will pass additional options defined in
|
|---|
| 215 | $(DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS) to configure.
|
|---|
| 216 | * Fixed CDPATH portability problems, in particular for MacOS X.
|
|---|
| 217 | * Fixed handling of nobase_ targets.
|
|---|
| 218 | * Fixed support of implicit rules leading to .lo objects.
|
|---|
| 219 | * Fixed late inclusion of --add-missing files (e.g. depcomp) in DIST_COMMON
|
|---|
| 220 | * Added uninstall-hook target
|
|---|
| 221 | * `AC_INIT AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(tarname,version)' is an obsolete construct.
|
|---|
| 222 | You can now use `AC_INIT(pkgname,version) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' instead.
|
|---|
| 223 | (Note that "pkgname" is not "tarname", see the manual for details.)
|
|---|
| 224 | It is also possible to pass a list of global Automake options as
|
|---|
| 225 | first argument to this new form of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
|
|---|
| 226 | * Compiler-based assembler is now called `CCAS'; people expected `AS'
|
|---|
| 227 | to be a real assembler.
|
|---|
| 228 | * AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE will set STRIP itself when it needs it. Adding
|
|---|
| 229 | AC_CHECK_TOOL([STRIP], [strip]) manually is no longer required.
|
|---|
| 230 | * aclocal and automake are also installed with the version number
|
|---|
| 231 | appended, and some of the install directory names have changed.
|
|---|
| 232 | This lets you have multiple versions installed simultaneously.
|
|---|
| 233 | * Support for parsers and lexers in subdirectories.
|
|---|
| 234 | |
|---|
| 235 |
|
|---|
| 236 | New in 1.5:
|
|---|
| 237 | * Support for `configure.ac'.
|
|---|
| 238 | * Support for `else COND', `endif COND' and negated conditions `!COND'.
|
|---|
| 239 | * `make dist-all' is much faster.
|
|---|
| 240 | * Allows '@' AC_SUBSTs in macro names.
|
|---|
| 241 | * Faster AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE (requires update of `missing' script)
|
|---|
| 242 | * User-side dependency tracking. Developers no longer need GNU make
|
|---|
| 243 | * Python support
|
|---|
| 244 | * Uses DIST_SUBDIRS in some situations when SUBDIRS is conditional
|
|---|
| 245 | * Most files are correctly handled if they appear in subdirs
|
|---|
| 246 | For instance, a _DATA file can appear in a subdir
|
|---|
| 247 | * GNU tar is no longer required for `make dist'
|
|---|
| 248 | * Added support for `dist_' and `nodist_' prefixes

|---|
| 254 |
|
|---|
| 255 | New in 1.4:
|
|---|
| 256 | * Added support for the Fortran 77 programming language.
|
|---|
| 257 | * Re-indexed the Automake Texinfo manual.
|
|---|
| 258 | * Added `AM_FOOFLAGS' variable for each compiler invocation;
|
|---|
| 259 | e.g. AM_CFLAGS can be used in Makefile.am to set C compiler flags
|
|---|
| 260 | * Support for latest autoconf, including support for objext
|
|---|
| 261 | * Can now put `.' in SUBDIRS to control build order
|
|---|
| 262 | * `include' command and `+=' support for macro assignment
|
|---|
| 263 | * Dependency tracking no long susceptible to deleted header file problem
|
|---|
| 264 | * Maintainer mode now a conditional. @MAINT@ is now an anachronism.
|
|---|
| 265 | * Bug fixes
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 271 | * Support for suffix rules with _SOURCES variables
|

|
|---|
| 273 | * @LEXLIB@ no longer required when lex source seen
|
|---|
| 274 | Lex support in `missing', and new lex macro. Update your missing script.
|
|---|
| 275 | * Built-in support for assembly
|
|---|
| 276 | * aclocal gives error if `AM_' macro not found
|
|---|
| 277 | * Passed YFLAGS, not YACCFLAGS, to yacc
|
|---|
| 278 | * AM_PROG_CC_STDC does not have to come before AC_PROG_CPP
|
|---|
| 279 | * Dependencies computed as a side effect of compilation

|---|
| 280 | * Preliminary support for Java
|
|---|
| 281 | * DESTDIR support at "make install" time
|

|
|---|
| 283 | |
|---|
| 284 |
|

|
|---|

|---|
| 301 | * DATA, MANS and BUILT_SOURCES no longer included in distribution
|
|---|
| 302 | * can now put config.h into a subdir

| 306 | * configure substitutions are automatically discovered and included
|
|---|
| 307 | in generated Makefile.in
|
|---|
| 308 | * Special --cygnus mode
|
|---|
| 309 | * OMIT_DEPENDENCIES can now hold list of dependencies to be omitted
