[ng] mkinstalldirs: remove support for the script and the variable
According to our documentation:
mkinstalldirs used to be a wrapper around 'mkdir -p', which is not
portable. Now we prefer to use 'install-sh -d' when configure
finds that 'mkdir -p' does not work, this makes one less script to
distribute. For backward compatibility mkinstalldirs is still used
and distributed when automake finds it in a package. But it is no
longer installed automatically, and it should be safe to remove it.
So we remove the 'mkinstalldirs' as well as its companion $(mkinstalldirs)
variable from Automake-NG altogether.
* NG-NEWS, doc/automake-ng.texi: Update.
* automake.in (handle_configure): Don not require nor distribute the
'mkinstalldirs' script anymore. Do not define the $(mkinstalldirs)
variable.
(@common_files): Do not report 'mkinstalldirs' anymore. Reformat the
array while we are at it, to make it easier to add or remove entries
in the future.
* lib/mkinstalldirs: Delete this file.
* Makefile.am (dist_script_DATA): Remove it.
(check-coverage-run, recheck-coverage-run): Use $(MKDIR_P), not
$(mkinstalldirs), to create the 'cover_db' directory.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_mkinstalldirs): Adjust to verify we have mo more
instances of 'mkinstalldirs'.
* contrib/multilib/config-ml.in: Remove comment referencing the
'mkinstalldirs' script.
* t/auxdir.sh: Adjust to use 'py-compile' rather than 'mkinstalldirs'.
* t/auxdir6.sh: Likewise.
* t/auxdir7.sh: Likewise.
* t/auxdir8.sh: Likewise.
* t/pr9.sh: Adjust comments to avoid spuriously triggering the
'sc_mkinstalldirs' maintainer check.
* t/mkinst3.sh: Converted to test 'install-sh -d' rather than
'mkinstalldirs'.
* t/subdir.sh: Adjust comments.
* t/werror.sh: Use 'am_create_testdir=empty' rather than removing
the install-sh, depcomp, missing and mkinstalldirs scripts by hand.
* t/mkinstall.sh: Remove as obsolete.
* t/instman2.sh: Likewise.
