* fixup: distribute 'contrib/multilib/multi.m4'Stefano Lattarini2012-01-211-1/+3
| | | | | | | This fix up a blunder in commit v1.11-665-gc5df21e of 2012-01-17, "multilib: deprecate, will be moved to contrib". * contrib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add 'multilib/multi.m4'.
* multilib: deprecate, will be moved to contribStefano Lattarini2012-01-216-33/+132
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of 2012-01-17, according to Google codesarch, almost no active package is using the 'multilib' feature offered by automake. The only major exception seems to be GCC... But on a closer look, it become clear that GCC basically carries its own version of multilib support. In fact, Automake syncs its 'config-ml.in' and 'symlink-tree' scripts from GCC; and the GCC repository contains a version of the 'multi.m4' file that is *more* updated than the one in the automake repository (the former having being modified the last time in 2008, the latter only in 2006). The 'multilib' feature was anyway hardly documented at all, only being briefly cited in the manual as an "obscure feature", "still experimental", that was only for users "familiar with multilibs" and which "can debug problems they might encounter". We expect such users to be motivated and knowledgeable enough to make the minor adjustments required to start using the contrib version of multilib, if they really need to. * NEWS (Future backward incompatibility): Update. * doc/automake.texi: Deprecate multilib support. State that it will be removed from automake core in the next major release. * m4/multi.m4 (AM_ENABLE_MULTILIB): Deprecate. If called, now gives a proper warning in the 'obsolete' category (while still retaining its former behaviour for the rest). * tests/multilib.test: Update. * contrib/multilib/multi.m4: New, verbatim copy of the earlier version of multi.m4, without the new deprecation warning. * Makefile.am (fetch): Don't sync the 'config-ml.in' file nor the 'symlink-tree' script from GCC SVN repository anymore. (FETCHFILES): Adjust. (WGET_GCC): Remove, it's not needed anymore.
* fixlet: flags for Fortran77 compiler are in FFLAGS, not F77FLAGSStefano Lattarini2012-01-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This change fixes automake bug#10555. Note that the bug was a minor one, since it didn't affect the compilation rules generated by automake, but only only the "hints" printed by automake in some error messages (e.g., "The usual way to define `FFLAGS' is to add AC_PROG_F77 to configure.ac"). * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_ac_macro_for_var): The code generated by AC_PROG_F77 uses FFLAGS, not F77FLAGS, as the variable where to look for switches for the Fortran 77 compiler: adjust accordingly.
* cosmetics: fix a botched comment in a maintainer checkStefano Lattarini2012-01-191-1/+2
| | | | | * Makefile.am (sc_tests_make_without_am_makeflags): Adjust botched description of this check.
* cmdline parsing: move into a dedicated perl moduleStefano Lattarini2012-01-186-143/+125
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this change, we delegate most of the automake and aclocal code for command-line options parsing to a new module "Automake::Getopt". This allows better code sharing between automake and aclocal, and also with Autoconf, which will sync the new module from us. See also autoconf commit 'v2.68-120-gf4be358' (2012-01-17, "getopt: new Autom4te::Getopt module"), and this mailing list discussion: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2012-01/msg00033.html> This change might interact with the behaviour described in automake bug#7434; for example, starting from now, "automake -Wfoo --version" will cause automake to emit diagnostic like "unknown warning category 'foo'" before actually printing the version number and exiting. This is not a big deal in practice, and the code sharing and simplifications introduced by this patch is certainly worth it. Still, we should revisited the issue in the future. * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm: New module, basically a slightly-edited copy of the 'lib/Autom4te/Getopt.pm' file from the autoconf devel repository (commit v2.68-120-gf4be358). It defines and exports ... (parse_options): ... this new function. * automake.in (parse_arguments): Use the new function. * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Likewise. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (dist_perllib_DATA): Add the new file. * tests/getopt.test: Remove. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update.
* cosmetics: move CheckListOfTests.am into tests/Stefano Lattarini2012-01-182-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | After the previous change 'v1.11-660-gfbeda3d', the makefile fragment 'CheckListOfTests.am' is used only by the Makefile.am in 'tests'; so keeping them two nearer makes sense. It also help in reducing potential confusion, since (after that same change) the whole Automake testsuite is expected to be (and remain) contained into the 'tests' subdirectory. * CheckListOfTests.am: Move ... * tests/CheckListOfTests.am: ... to this. * tests/Makefile.am (include): Adjust.
* tests: move all under the same hierarchy ('tests/' directory)Stefano Lattarini2012-01-1814-60/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This simplifies the organization of the Automake source tree and reduces the (lamentably high) number of Makefiles in the Automake build system by one. It also makes the maintainer check that verifies the consistency of list of tests more self-contained and simpler. Finally, it might be a first step forward the transition to a non-recursive build system for automake (if we ever decide to go down that road fully some day). * lib/Automake/tests: All the '*.pl' tests in here moved ... * tests/pm: ... into this new directory. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Remove, its meaningful contents moved ... * tests/Makefile.am: ... here, with obvious adjustments. (test_subdirs): New variable, for the sake of the recipe of 'maintainer-check-list-of-tests'. * CheckListOfTests (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): Enhance its recipe to make it able to deal with test script residing in subdirectories. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): Simplified. (TEST_SUBDIRS): Remove, no more needed. * tests/list-of-tests.mk (perl_TESTS): New variable, lists the '.pl' tests just moved into 'tests/pm'. (handwritten_TESTS): Add the contents of '$(perl_TESTS)'. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Update. * .gitignore: Adjust.
* gitlog-to-changelog: update from upstreamStefano Lattarini2012-01-181-8/+8
| | | | | * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Update from gnulib upstream. The only changes should be cosmetic and/or minor fixlets.
* changelog: don't cluster multiple entries under the same "date line"Stefano Lattarini2012-01-172-6/+15
| | | | | | | | | * lib/gitlog-to-changelog: Synced from gnulib. The new version has a new option '--no-cluster', that disables clustering of adjacent commit messages under the same "date line". * Makefile.am (gitlog_to_changelog_options): Add '--no-cluster'. Also add a proper '--format' specification to ensure we have a blank line between the summary line and the commit message body.
* fixup: contrib: really integrate in automake build systemStefano Lattarini2012-01-172-1/+2
| | | | | * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add 'contrib/Makefile'. * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add 'contrib'.
* contrib: new, a directory for non-mainstream functionalitiesStefano Lattarini2012-01-172-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This new 'contrib' hierarchy will be a good place were to move implementation/support for obsolescent features we are not yet ready to remove completely, or were to leave experimental or third-party features to cook before their eventual inclusion in the automake core. * contrib: New directory. * contrib/README: New file. * contrib/Makefile.am: New file. (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute README.

(check, recheck): Unify the implementation of their recipes, with different code paths taken depending on the name of the target. This makes the implementation of "recheck" less brittle in the process (especially when non-GNU make and AM_MAKEFLAGS overriding are involved). * lib/am/check-html.am (check-html, recheck-html): Likewise. * tests/check.test: Adjust to avoid spurious failure. * tests/parallel-tests2.test: Improve coverage.
| * check: separate .log -> .html conversion from core testsuite harnessStefano Lattarini2012-01-165-46/+115
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | That feature is to be deprecated in the 1.11.x series, and removed from the automake core in the 1.12 release, where it will instead be offered in a semi-independent extra '*.am' fragment. So let's start better separating the .log -> .html conversion from the "core code" of the parallel-tests harness. Reference: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-01/msg00005.html> * lib/am/check.am (.log.html, check-html, recheck-html): Move these targets ... * automake.in (handle_tests): ... and the initialization of the TEST_SUITE_HTML variable and the cleaning of the $(TEST_SUITE_HTML) file ... * lib/am/check-html.am: ... in this new file, with related (minor) refactorings, enhancements and simplifications. * lib/am/check.am (.MAKE.

* | vala: avoid potential useless remakes (minor bugfix)Stefano Lattarini2012-01-161-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): Ensure the timestamp file from which the C files generated from Vala sources depend on gets created with a modification time that is truly older than those of said generated C files. This prevents make from attempting useless rebuilds (which were bound to happen deterministically on systems with sub-second timestamp resolutions). It is worth noting that, luckily, those useless rebuild ended up being a no-op, since the Vala compiler is careful not to update the timestamp of an output file if its content has not changed from the previous version. Still, the useless rebuilds messed up "make -q" and "make -n" invocations, and were technically incorrect (despite being, as noted, inoffensive in practice). Problem revealed by failure of tests vala-mix.test and vala5.test on a fast Solaris 10 system whose filesystem had a sub-second timestamp resolution.

Throw in some cosmetic and consistency changes since we are at it. * tests/vala-mix.test: New test. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.
* tests: list some forgotten test cases in $(TESTS)Stefano Lattarini2012-01-161-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | This way, they will be properly executed by "make check", and properly distributed. Our previous commit 'v1.11-647-g27f1a1c' is already paying its dividends! * tests/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): Add check12.test, dist-missing-included-m4.test, dist-missing-am.test, and dist-missing-m4.test.
* maintcheck: consistency of list of test scriptsStefano Lattarini2012-01-164-1/+90
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is basically a backport of commit 'v1.11-358-g7b6ab07' and its follow-ups. The possibility of easily checking that the list of test scripts listed in a Makefile equals that of the tests on the filesystem has proved itself so useful that it's worth taking the annoyance of backporting it to maint. * CheckListOfTests.am: New file, backported from master (commit 'v1.11-1736-g083a75b') with minor adjustments. (maintainer-check-list-of-tests): New target, check for consistency between the list of tests defined in the including Makefile and the list of tests on the filesystem. (clean-maintcheck-testslist-tmp): New rule, to clean up temporary files that might be left around by the rules associated with the previous target. (clean-local): Depend on it. * lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Include `CheckListOfTests.am'. * tests/Makefile.am: Likewise. * Makefile.am (maintainer-check-list-of-test): New target, calling recursively into `tests/' and `lib/Automake/tests/', using ... (TEST_SUBDIRS): ... this new variable. (maintainer-check): Added dependency from the new target `maintainer-check-list-of-tests'.
* build: explicitly declare some targets as .PHONYStefano Lattarini2012-01-151-1/+4
| | | | | * Makefile.am (fetch, git-dist, git-release, maintainer-check): Declare as ".PHONY".
* maint: remove obsolete/broken maintainer targetsStefano Lattarini2012-01-151-21/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Makefile.am (git-diff): Remove. First, we don't distribute diffs between an automake version and the next one anyway, so this target is pointless. Moreover, its recipe has been broken for quite a long time now, always generating an empty diff due to the spurious '$(PACKAGE)' argument that was passed to the "git diff" invocation. (path-check): Remove. The 'pathchk' program running in this check complains about any file with name longer than 14 characters, which is a ridiculously low limit for today standards. Also, we already had several test scripts (no less than 195!) that were exceeding that limit, and nobody ever complained (not even on MinGW/MSYS nor Cygwin).
* build: improve silencing of automake build systemStefano Lattarini2012-01-152-11/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | In this change, we continue the silencing of the automake build system that has been started in commit v1.11-642-g17542c3, but which has been left incomplete there for an (absent-mindness) mistake. * Makefile.am (INSTALL): Silence the recipe. (automake, aclocal): Likewise, and improve them a little since we are at it. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (Config.pm): Likewise.
* tests: move list of tests in its own Makefile fragmentStefano Lattarini2012-01-153-900/+925

(release-stats): Be silent by default *but not unconditionally*, thanks to the use of $(AM_V_GEN).

* gnupload: moved to gnulibStefano Lattarini2012-01-153-14/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the gnupload script is not required by automake-generated code (be it configure or Makefile content), and is not specifically tied to automake in any way, it is better to have its master copy installed in the gnulib repository, as is already done for similar generally-useful, maintainer-oriented scripts. We can them sync it from there. See also gnulib commit v0.0-6822-gf8b7120, and: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-01/msg00222.html> * Makefile.am (FETCHFILES): Added 'gnupload'.

| | | | | | * automake.in (lang_vala_finish_target): In the generated rules, use '$(am__cd)', not bare 'cd', to chdir into $(scdir). Issue revealed by the maintainer check 'sc_cd_relative_dir'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change fixes automake bug#10470. On MSYS (1.0.17) it is not possible to remove a directory that is in use, and this, together with timing issues, could cause spurious failures in the cleanup code of the "distcheck" recipe. In fact, it should be noted that assuming a directory can be removed while it the CWD of a running process is a POSIX violation: "If the directory is the root directory or the current working directory of any process, it is unspecified whether the function succeeds, or whether it shall fail and set errno to [EBUSY]." * lib/am/distdir.am (am__remove_distdir): If rm fails, sleep some seconds and retry, to give potential "pending" processes some time to exit and "release" the directory. * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 'distcheck-pr10470.test'.

* dist: do not wrap calls to 'tar' with the 'missing' scriptStefano Lattarini2012-01-066-195/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The `missing' script is meant to allow non-developers to build a package in the face of slightly-skewed timestamps (as might happen e.g. when the package is obtained from a VCS checkout rather than from a distribution tarball). It is *not* the business of the `missing' script to try to provide wrappers for all the maintainer tools (in this case, to tool being a decent tar program). Such wrapping of `tar' was not only inappropriate, but it was also preventing the legitimate overriding (at make runtime) of the `tar' program used in the creation of the distribution tarballs. See also automake bug#9822. * lib/missing: Don't try to specially wrap `tar' invocations anymore. * m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): In the definitions of the `AMTAR' variable, do not wrap the `tar' invocation with the `missing' script anymore. Instead, allow the user to override the intended tar program at make runtime, by defining the `TAR' environment variable. [$1 == v7]: Similarly for the definitions of the `am__tar' and `am__untar' variables. Since we are at it, don't make them depend anymore on the definition of the obsolescent `AMTAR' variable. * NEWS: Update. * tests/missing-tar.test: Remove, it's obsolete. * tests/tar-override.test: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.

* parallel-tests: avoid issue with overly long lines in sed inputStefano Lattarini2012-01-052-17/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | See automake bug#10437: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10437> and coreutils bug#10427: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10427#8> * lib/am/check.am (recheck, recheck-html): In order to strip trailing whitespace from the definition of the `$list' variable, we used to invoke sed in a way that could cause it to get passed overly long input lines, causing spurious failures. So rework the logic of the recipe to avoid any sed invocation, relying on simpler shell idioms instead. (check-TESTS): Reorganize the recipe to be more similar to the one of `recheck', for consistency and simplicity. * NEWS: Update. Report and analysis by Paul Eggert.

* install: pkglibexec_SCRIPTS is a valid prefix/primary combinationStefano Lattarini2012-01-036-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It makes little sense for `libexec_SCRIPTS' to be accepted as valid while `pkglibexec_SCRIPTS' is not. So fix this inconsistency by explicitly allowing `pkglibexec_SCRIPTS' as well. It is worth noting that the inconsistency has been there for a long time, but only the quite recent commit `v1.11-373-g9ca6326' "Warnings about primary/prefix mismatch fixed and extended" has made it noisy enough to be noticed. * automake.in (handle_scripts): Also list `pkglibexec' among the prefixes valid for the `SCRIPTS' primary. * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Likewise. * tests/primary-prefix-valid-couples.test: Update. * THANKS: Likewise. * NEWS: Likewise.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Backported from commit `v1.11-377-g6edafbb'. The feature implemented by that change is quite unobtrusive, so adding it to a maintenance release is acceptable. Also, there have been requests from real-world users for this feature since it has been implemented in master; see automake bug#9320: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9320> and this short discussion on the automake list: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2010-11/msg00099.html> It would be a pity to make such users wait even more (until Automake 1.12 is out) before they could start using this feature. Thus we backport it, so that it will appear in the next maintenance version of automake (1.11.3). * automake.in (handle_programs, handle_libraries) (handle_ltlibraries): Mark EXTRA_*_DEPENDENCIES as recognized. * doc/automake.texi (Linking, Program and Library Variables) (LIBOBJS): Document EXTRA_*_DEPENDENCIES. * lib/am/library.am (%LIBRARY%): Also depend on $(EXTRA_%XLIBRARY%_DEPENDENCIES). * lib/am/ltlibrary.am (%LTLIBRARY%): Also depend on (%XLTLIBRARY%_DEPENDENCIES). * lib/am/program.am (%PROGRAM%%EXEEXT%): Also depend on $(EXTRA_%XPROGRAM%_DEPENDENCIES). * tests/extradep.test, tests/extradep2.test: New tests. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. * NEWS: Update.
* tests: fix spurious failures in 'pr300*.test'Stefano Lattarini2012-01-032-5/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | This change fixes automake bug#10426. * tests/pr300-lib.test: Call configure with an explicit '--libdir' option, to avoid spurious failures due to users possibly overriding '${libdir}' in ther config.site files. * tests/pr300-ltlib.test: Likewise. Reported by Bruno Haible.
