* Prefer https: URLsPaul Eggert2017-09-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is downstream of, which I'll patch separately. Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers, and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other countries browse US-based websites. See, for example: Aceto G, Botta A, Pescapé A, Awan MF, Ahmad T, Qaisar S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI 2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626 HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should take some care here.

* tests: remove exec bit from all of them ('micro' branch)Stefano Lattarini2013-05-161-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It gives the impression that they are directly runnable, as with "./t/foo.sh", but it has been a while since that was the case. Today, tests are runnable only through "make check" or "./runtest". This change is for the 'micro' branch (automake 1.13.2a). It will soon be followed by similar patches for the 'maint' branch (automake 1.13a) and the 'master' branch (automake 1.99a). * t/*.sh, t/*.tap: Remove executable bit. * maint.mk (sc_tests_executable): Remove. (syntax_check_rules): Adjust. * gen-testsuite-part: Set permissions of generated tests to '444' (-r--r--r--), rather than 555 (-r-xr-xr-x).

* tests: prefer including 'test-init.sh' rather than './defs'Stefano Lattarini2012-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8, "tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh" * All tests: To run the common setup, use the command: . test-init.sh instead of the older, "historical" one: . ./defs || exit 1 Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit' shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found (at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only mode that concerns us in the testsuite). * t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise. * gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

* tests: simpler workaround for shells losing the exit status in exit trapStefano Lattarini2012-06-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh). For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the Autoconf manual: <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap> The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following shells: - Bash 4.1 - Bash 3.2 - Bash 3.0 - Bash 2.05b - dash 0.5.5.1 - dash 0.5.2 - AT&T Ksh 93u (from official Debian package) - MirBSD Korn Shell 40.2 (from official Debian package) - Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /bin/ksh - Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh - NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh - NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh * t/ax/test-init.sh (Exit): Rename ... (_am_exit): ... like this. (exit): New alias for '_am_exit'. We cannot simply redefine 'exit' as a shell function, because some shells (dash 0.5.5.1, Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh) do not allow it. (_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we really invoke the 'exit' builtin and not our alias with the same name. * configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run our testsuite supports aliases named like shell builtins. * t/REAMDE: Adjust. * All tests: Adjust, by simply using 'exit' instead of 'Exit'. * t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Adjust: the first usage of 'exit' after it has been redefined as an alias must be on a new line w.r.t. that where the alias is defined, in order for the redefinition to be honored. * syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Delete. (sc_tests_exit_not_Exit): New. (syntax_check_rules): Adjust. (sc_tests_automake_fails): Simplify the recipe a little. * Several tests: Remove now useless spurious quoting once required to placate the 'sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check. * gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. Also, avoid uses of 'Exit' in the generated scripts. Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
* maint: deprecate 'configure.in' as autoconf inputStefano Lattarini2012-06-011-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been years since that has been deprecated in the documentation, in favour of 'configure.ac': Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name configure.in, which is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to process this file is not described by its extension), and introduces a slight confusion with config.h.in and so on (for which '.in' means "to be processed by configure"). Using configure.ac is now preferred. It's now time to start giving runtime warning about the use of 'configure.in', so that support for it can be removed in future versions of autoconf/automake. See also, in the Autoconf repository, commit 'v2.69-4-g560f16b' of 2012-05-23, "general: deprecate 'configure.in' as autoconf input". * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Issue a warning in the 'obsolete' category if 'configure.in' is detected. Since this module is synced from Automake, this change is to be backported there (and will be soon). * t/help.sh: Adjust. * t/configure.sh: Adjust and enhance.

* tests: rename 'tests/' => 't/', '*.test' => '*.sh'Stefano Lattarini2012-04-061-0/+46
When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information. Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test' script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test' will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters. * tests/: Rename ... * t/: ... to this. * t/*.test: Rename ... * t/*.sh: ... to this. * t/.gitignore: Removed as obsolete. * t/defs: Adjust. * t/gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Likewise. * t/ccnoco.sh: Likewise. * t/ccnoco3.sh: Likewise. * t/self-check-cleanup.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-dir.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-me.tap: Likewise. * t/self-check-reexec.tap: Likewise. * README: Likewise. * bootstrap: Likewise * configure.ac: Likewise. * Makefile.am: Likewise. * .gitignore: Likewise. * syntax-check.mk: Likewise.
