Support for `install-dvi', `install-html', `install-ps', and
`install-pdf', as recently introduced into the GNU Coding
Standard.
* automake.in (handle_factored_dependencies): Reject
uninstall-dvi-local, uninstall-html-local, uninstall-info-local,

* lib/Automake/Rule.pm (%dependencies): Add new install rules,
and remove uninstall-info.
* /cvs/automake/automake/lib/am/texinfos.am (install-dvi,
install-dvi-am, install-dvi-recursive, install-html,

* lib/Automake/Rule.pm (reset) <%dependencies>: Add `.MAKE'.
* automake.in (target_cmp): Move all `.XYZ' target last, not
only `.PHONY'.

* doc/automake.texi (gettext): Move the paragraph about
dist_list_LISP...
(Emacs Lisp): ... here.
Report from Bruno Haible.

* doc/automake.texi: Correct several misuses of @xref and @pxref.
2004-12-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
* install-sh: Use `(exit N); exit N', not `(exit N); exit'.
Otherwise, install-sh could exit with improper exit status when
exiting via a trapped interrupt. Thanks to a report from Bob Proulx.
2004-12-14 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* doc/automake.texi (Options): Englishoes.

2004-12-08 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com>
Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm (dir_has_case_matching_file,
reset_dir_cache): New functions.

2004-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* lib/mdate-sh: Don't use "set - x`$ls_command /`", as zsh mishandles
the spaces inside $ls_command. Problem reported by Loulou Pouchet in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2004-12/msg00074.html>.
Don't use "set - x"; plain "set x" is enough, and simplifies debugging.
2004-12-05 Toshio Kuratomi <toshio@tiki-lounge.com>
* lib/py-compile: Add --destdir switch to py-compile that takes a
path argument that is not compiled into the file when byte compiling.
* lib/am/python.am: Use the new py-compile arguments to not include
DESTDIR in the byte compiled files.
* tests/python12.test: Test that DESTDIR won't be byte compiled into
python files.
2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (Clean): Typo.
* doc/automake.texi: Use @acindex for Autoconf macros, and @vindex
for variables (@cvindex was previously used for both). Separate
these two indices in the output. Use @code, @file, and @command
in @cindex lines wherever appropriate so they render nicely.
2004-12-05 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
* doc/automake.texi (renamed objects, CVS): Typos.
2004-12-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

Report from Eric Blake.
2004-11-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

with missing argument, and support `--'.
* aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Diagnose options with missing
argument.
* tests/aclocal.test: More checks.
* tests/automake.test: New file.
* tests/postprog.test: Use `--' for fun.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add automake.test.
Report from Eric Blake.
* lib/am/progs.am (installcheck-%DIR%PROGRAMS): Run programs with
/dev/null as input, so we do not hang on programs that read their
input without supporting --help and --version.
* lib/am/scripts.am (installcheck-%DIR%SCRIPTS): Likewise for scripts.

Report and fix from James Youngman.
2004-11-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* aclocal.in (%file_seen): Rename as ...
(%file_added): ... this, and move it close to add_file(), the only
function that uses it.

the layout of automake --version. From Art Haas.
* aclocal.in (%file_type, FT_USER, FT_AUTOMAKE_SYSTEM): New variables.

Patrick Welche.
2004-11-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Fix the invocation of
AC_PATH_PROGS to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no interpreter
is found (this worked correctly only when a minimal version was
passed to AM_PATH_PYTHON). Report from Stepan Kasal.
(_AM_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_LIST): Define using m4_define_default,
so we can easily override the list from the test suite.
* tests/python11.test: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add python11.test.
* doc/automake.texi (Libtool Modules): Make clearer that -module
should appear explicitly in _LDFLAGS.
2004-11-09 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correctly recognize --print-ac-dir.
* tests/aclocal.test: Check --print-ac-dir and a unknown option.
* aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Fix detection of unexisting default
$(datadir)/aclocal. Report from Akim.
2004-11-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

@system_includes instead of filling a unique @dirlist array.
("MAIN"): Adjust to scan m4 files in @user_includes,
@automake_includes, and @system_includes.
2004-11-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Correct comment. From Akim.
2004-11-04 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* aclocal.in: Use Automake::ChannelDefs, and adjust all output
to be done via `fatal', `msg', `verb', or `prog_error'.
(version): New function.
(parse_arguments): Rewrite using Getopt::Long, call &version, and
honor -W and --warning.
($verbose): Remove.
(trace_used_macros): Do not trace the first arguments of macros
for which we do not need it. This caused failures because of
unexpected newlines in the output.
* doc/automake.texi (aclocal options): Document -W and --warning.
* tests/defs.in (ACLOCAL): Always use -Werror, to catch Perl
warnings about uninitialized variables.
2004-11-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* tests/defs.in: Do not distinguish VERBOSE=x from
VERBOSE=anything_but_x, always turn on shell traces.
* aclocal.in (write_aclocal): Make sure $map_traced_defs{$m} exists
before using it. Suppress a warning observable in test/acloca16.test.
Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
2004-11-01 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* lib/Automake/XFile.pm (lock): Make sure $ENV{'MAKEFLAGS'} exists
before inspecting it; this fixes "uninitialized value in
concatenation" diagnostics when flock fails.
Report from Gary V. Vaughan.
* aclocal.in: Use strict and -w. Declare local variables with `my',
and get rid of `local'.
(scan_m4_files, add_macro): Reindent these functions while we are
at it.
* lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
* doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Spelling and grammar corrections
from Ralf Wildenhues.
2004-10-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (LIBOBJS): Augment with an example setup.
(LTLIBOBJ): Rename as ...
(LTLIBOBJS): ... this. Link to LIBOBJS, and mention LTALLOCA.
2004-10-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi: Untabify, tabs in the examples are poorly
rendered.
* Makefile.am (maintainer-check): Grep tabs in the manual.
* tests/comment8.test: Use $MAKE, not make.
2004-10-24 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* tests/distcom3.test: Typo.
2004-10-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (Libtool Convenience Libraries): Explain how
to force the linker selection.
* lib/install-sh: Fix the dirname emulation to ignore trailing
slashes, i.e., the direname of `a/b/' is `a', not `a/b/'. This
caused `install-sh a/b/' to fail.
* tests/instsh2.test: Augment.
Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
2004-10-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* automake.in (get_object_extension): The extension to use is know
by the caller, and cannot be selected by looking only at the
target name. Simplify this function to simply conditionally
prepend $U to the given extension.
(handle_programs, handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Hard-code
the extension to use. This way Automake won't mistake a program
named `foo.la' as a libtool library.
* tests/primary3.test: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add primary3.test.
2004-10-12 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (Install): Link to node Extending for examples.
(Extending): More comments about install-data-hook vs
install-exec-hook, and link to Install.
* configure.ac: Export @am_AUTOCONF@.
* tests/defs.in (AUTOCONF): Define as @am_AUTOCONF@, not @AUTOCONF@,
so the test suite runs `autoconf' and not `missing --run autoconf'.
* tests/missing.test, tests/missing2.test: Arrange for missing
to be used in front of autoconf even if the user has exported
AUTOCONF. This fixes two spurious failures reported by
Mark D. Baushke.
* lib/compile: Handle output.obj in addition to output.o.
* tests/compile.test: Check for this.
2004-10-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (Sources): Typo, reported by Karl Berry.
2004-10-10 Kelley Cook <kcook@gcc.gnu.org> (tiny change)
Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* aclocal.in ($ac_defun_rx): Match AC_DEFUN_ONCE.
(trace_used_macros): Trace AC_DEFUN_ONCE.
* tests/aclocal5.test: Use AC_DEFUN_ONCE.
2004-10-10 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz> (tiny change)
* doc/automake.texi (Extending): Typo.
2004-10-10 Martin Waitz <tali@admingilde.org> (tiny change)
* m4/as.m4 (AM_PROG_AS): Check dependency tracking mode for CCAS.
* automake.in (cppasm): Use the dependency tracking more for CCAS.
* doc/automake.texi (Assembly Support): Note that *.S are
preprocessed with CPPFLAGS.
2004-10-10 Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
* automake.in (Languages): Split .s (asm) and .S (cppasm) into
separate languages. Make cppasm (Preprocessed Assembler) aware
of CPPFLAGS, AM_CPPFLAGS.
(handle_languages): Fix typo.
(lang_cppasm_rewrite): New function.
2004-09-29 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* tests/subobj9.test: Adjust regexes after previous patch.
2004-09-28 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* automake.in (handle_languages, define_compiler_variable): Output
Libtool's --tag= option before --mode=compile, because depcomp use
--mode=compile as end marker for libtool arguments.
(define_linker_variable): Likewise before --mode=link, for
uniformity.
* tests/pr307.test: Make sure dependency files are updated. That
was not the case because depcomp thought `--tag=CC' was the
compiler to get dependencies from.
Report from Пухальский Юрий Андреевич.
2004-09-26 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* configure.ac: Require Perl 5.6.
* lib/Automake/Config.in: Require Perl 5.6 (not done in
lib/Automake/General.pm because it is shared with Autoconf),
and use `our' instead of `use vars'.
* aclocal.in (rel2abs): Remove.
(scan_configure_dep): Use File::Spec->rel2abs instead.
* tests/compile.test, tests/instsh2.test, tests/instspc.test: Use
two consecutive spaces in filename instead of one, to catch mistake
like `echo $val | ...`.
* tests/README: Suggest this.
Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
2004-09-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (Clean): Document -local targets.
2004-09-25 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
* doc/automake.texi: Typos.
2004-09-21 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* doc/automake.texi (Timeline): Typos and other English mistakes
reported by Jim and Gary.
* lib/Automake/VarDef.pm (append): Strip comments from augmented
variables.
* tests/comment8.test: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add comment8.test.
Report from Stepan Kasal.
2004-09-19 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* tests/compile.test: Fix rm usage.
* INSTALL, lib/INSTALL, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess,
lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream versions.
* doc/automake.texi (Timeline): New node. Thanks to Karl and Tom
for their comments on a preliminary version of this, Akim for
digging out some old mails, and Jason Molenda for sending the note
about Automake in Alias to Tom.
(Releases): Rename `ac' to `acl', suggested by Akim.
2004-09-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
* AUTHORS, automake.in, aclocal.in: Add Alexandre Duret-Lutz as

for AM_PROG_CC_C_O errors.
(handle_single_transform): Pass $var to &$subr so it can
print locations.

2004-08-08 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm (new): Precompute 'string' and 'conds'
in place instead of as a side-effect of calling ->string and ->conds.

this way.
2004-08-05 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
Speed up make_paragraphs.

DERIVED-EXT, and DIST_SOURCE, because the new transform() will
abort on unknown tokens.

transform all template tokens instead of doing as much passes as
possible token.

when ylwrap is installed in a default aux dir found in a parent
package.

* configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.9.
* automake.in (generate_makefile): Update misleading comment about
libtool scripts.

2004-07-25 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Remove `.' from the mkdir_p
definition, it causes `make install' to fails for user with no
right to write in the source-tree.
* automake.in (handle_configure): Do not use mkdir_p in the
definition for $(mkdir_p).
Report from Harlan Stenn.
* lib/am/texi-vers.am (%STAMPVTI%): Typo in comment.
2004-07-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

2004-07-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8e.
* configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8d.
* lib/config-ml.in, lib/config.sub, lib/config.guess, lib/texinfo.tex:
New upstream versions.
* lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Use $(X), not ${X}.
* tests/installdir.test: installdirs-local should appear three times,
since the change from 2004-07-11 will make it PHONY.
* lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Always use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) now
that it is always defined. This is less confusing for users
reading the generated Makefiles.
* automake.in (handle_dist): Do not substitute DIST_SUBDIR_NAME.
* lib/am/texibuild.am (?GENERIC?%SOURCE_SUFFIX%.html,
?!GENERIC?%DEST_PREFIX%.html): Output .htp, and then rename to .html
on success. In case the target is a directory, this ensures its
time stamp is updated and the no files are left over inside.
* tests/txinfo21.test: Augment to test missing timestamp update
reported by Akim Demaille.
* doc/automake.texi (Top level): Rename as ...
(Directories): ... this, and split into ...

headers are not distributed.
2004-07-12 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> (tiny change)

2004-07-11 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
For PR automake/428:
Support for conditionally defined -hook and -local rules.
* automake.in (user_phony_rule): New function.
(handle_dist, handle_install, handle_all, do_check_merge_target,
handle_factored_dependencies): Use user_phony_rule before
adding a user -hook or -local rule as a dependency to ensure
it is always defined an phony.
* tests/cond37.test, tests/condhook.test: New files.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add them.
Report from Simon Josefsson and Nik A. Melchior.
2004-07-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* doc/automake.texi (Install): Warn that you should create
/tmp/staging before installing into it, to avoid security problems.
* lib/install-sh: Remove support for -b= and -t= options; this
has been moribund for a decade.
Add support for -t and -T options (new in coreutils install).
-c option now does nothing (the default is to copy), for
compatibility with BSD and coreutils 'install'.
Fix usage message; it referred to nonexistent variables.
Don't assume 'lasterr' is unset in environment.
* tests/instsh2.test: Don't assume that install-sh without -c
moves (it now copies). Add tests for new -t and -T options.
2004-06-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
For Debian Bug#254372:
* doc/automake.texi (Invoking aclocal): Rewrite the paragraph
explaining m4_include is used for relative files.
2004-06-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
For Debian Bug #251820:
* aclocal.in (scan_file): Keep track of the location where each
file is included, and display it when reporting a missing file.
Pass this location to scan_file as a second argument.
(scan_m4_files): Adjust calls to scan_file.
* tests/acloca14.test: Add a test for this diagnostic.
2004-06-07 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Split the definition of $_am_tools
so it works with Solaris and Tru64 /bin/sh.
Report from Nicolas Joly.
2004-06-06 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): Introduce $_am_tools to work around a
bug in NetBSD /bin/sh.
Report from Nicolas Joly.
2004-06-03 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* tests/defs.in (required=icc): Use `-V -help' instead of
`-V -dryrun'. icc 8.0 fails on the latter.
* tests/depcomp5.test: Require depmode=icc for icc 7.x, and
depmod=gcc otherwise.
Report from Ralf Wildenhues.
* lib/am/clean.am (distclean-generic): Do no
`rm -f $(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' if `$(CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES)' is empty.
Report from Nicolas Joly.
2004-05-31 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* NEWS: Make clearer that we do not output partial Makefile.ins on
error.
Suggested by Akim Demaille.
* lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Use $dir$base.o.d instead
of $dir.libs/$base.o.d. Libtool 1.5 causes both to be output,
and we will clean the second automatically during distclean.
Using the latter and leaving the former as we did before cause
"files left in build directory" failures during distcheck.
Suggested by Nicolas Joly.
* doc/automake.texi (Built sources example): Explain what
nodist_foo_SOURCES is (not) useful to, and use it in all the
examples.
(Tags): Mention nodist_noinst_HEADERS and nodist_prog_SOURCES.
Suggested by Akim Demaille.
2004-05-23 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8c.
* configure.ac, NEWS: Bump version to 1.8b.
* m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR) <cpio>: Specify -o and -i option first,
by POSIX; and use option -d in am_untar.
* tests/defs.in (PATH): Export it.
* lib/am/multilib.am: Add $(MAKE) comments to multido and
multiclean lines, to enable parallel make. Based on a patch
by Alexandre Oliva applied to newlib on 2003-10-15.
2004-05-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace for LT_SUPPORTED_TAG
instead of AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, since that how CVS Libtool has been
changed.
* tests/libtool3.test: Do not grep for --tag=CC, since CVS
Libtool (unlike Libtool 1.5) does not has any CC tag.
* tests/tar2.test: Skip the test if no pax archiver were found.
* NEWS: Sync with branch-1-8, and reorganize current entry.
* automake.in (handle_libraries): Make the diagnostic about
non standard libraries a warning in foreign packages. This
is already the case in handle_ltlibraries.
(handle_libraries, handle_ltlibraries): Suggest a standard
library name in the diagnostic, to help newcomers.
* tests/stdlib.test, tests/stdlib2.test: Check for these
suggestions.
Check directory names for unportable names. Shaking the code
to check this also led to the removal of the no-"/"-in-SUBDIRS
restriction, and a fix to _do_recursive_traversal.
* automake.in (check_directory): New function extracted from
handle_subdirs, and augmented to check for reserved W32/DOS name.
(check_directories_in_var): New function.
(handle_subdirs): Call check_directories_in_var. Doing so also
suppress the restriction that SUBDIRS should not contain slashes.
(scan_autoconf_traces) <AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR>: Call check_directory
to ensure the argument exists and is safe.
* doc/automake.texi (Top level): Do not say that src/subdir
cannot be put in SUBDIRS.
(Dist): Mention that distdir and top_distdir can be absolute.
* lib/Automake/Variable.pm (_do_recursive_traversal) Support
undefined $fun_collect, and fix two bugs introduced with
skip_ac_subst on 2004-03-07.
* lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Use absolute distdir and
top_distdir when recursing, because we can no longer prepend only
`..' in case of SUBDIRS with `/'.
* tests/auxdir4.test, tests/subdir9.test: New files.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add auxdir4.test.
* tests/cond2.test, tests/subdir7.test: Augment to check location
in diagnostics.
2004-05-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> (tiny changes)
* tests/txinfo22.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Use aux1, not aux, for
cygwin compatibility.
* tests/yacc6.test (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Likewise.
* tests/conflnk3.test: Isolate checking for working `test -e' into
a subshell, to skip this test on broken /bin/sh of solaris.
2004-05-17 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* m4/cond.m4 (AM_CONDITIONAL): Double-quote diagnostic.
* tests/condd.test: Define a macro with the same name as a
conditional.
* tests/pr220.test: Modernize, and make sure the diagnostics
contains the macro name.
Report from Volker Boerchers.
2004-05-16 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* lib/texinfo.tex: New upstream version.
2004-05-15 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* automake.in (handle_dist): Always define DIST_SUBDIRS, even when
the no-dist or cygnus options are used.
* tests/clean2.test: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add clean2.test.
Report from Daniel Jacobowitz.
* aclocal.in (add_macro): Do not error out on undefined required
macros. We are not sure they are really used, and Autoconf
already diagnoses them.
(scan_configure_dep): Diagnose missing AM_ macros as warnings rather
than errors.
* tests/aclocal3.test, tests/ammissing.test: Adjust to expect a
warning instead of an error.
* tests/aclocal8.test: AC_REQUIRE an undefined macro in an unused
macro, and ensure aclocal works anyway.
* tests/acloca17.test: New file.
* tests/error.test: Delete, superseded by tests/acloca17.test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acloca17.test and remove error.test.
Report from Jim Meyering.
* lib/am/texibuild.am (?!GENERIC_INFO?%DEST_INFO_PREFIX%%DEST_SUFFIX%):
Fold a few lines to reduce the output by 5 lines.
Suggested by Karl Berry.
* automake.in (parse_arguments, MAIN): Give more precise
diagnostics when no input file is found.
* tests/output5.test: Adjust.
Suggested by Jens Petersen.
2004-05-14 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* lib/am/libs.am (AR, ARFLAGS): Move these definition ...
* automake.in (handle_libraries): ... here, so that they are
output even for EXTRA_LIBRARIES.

Report from Kevin Ryde.
2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

errors.
* tests/werror2.test: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add werror2.test.
* tests/substtarg.test, tests/cond36.test, tests/backsl4.test:
Adjust to run automake with -Wno-error when the output is expected
in spite of the error.
Report from Harlan Stenn.
* doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): Remove
doubled word in footnote.
* automake.in (handle_source_transform): Also check for a
$(srcdir)/old_source rule when computing the default source name.
Propagate this $(srcdir) prefix in Automake variables.
* tests/ltlibsrc.test (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): Explicitly refer to
$(srcdir)/zoo_d_old2_la.c. This fixes another failure with BSD Make.
2004-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* Makefile.am (fetch): Work even with FreeBSD "make", which
uses sh -e and thus errors-out if a simple-command fails.
* lib/am/check.am (check-TESTS): Likewise.
* lib/am/ltlib.am (clean-%DIR%LTLIBRARIES): Likewise.
* lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Likewise.
2004-05-13 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>
* tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
Report from Mark D. Baushke.
2004-05-10 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* tests/pluseq3.test, tests/pluseq8.test: Adjust.
Report from Simon Josefsson.
* lib/am/tags.am (TAGS): Pass `.' to Exuberant Ctags if
--etags-include is used but no other files are supplied, so it
creates the TAGS file anyway.
Report from Akim Demaille.
* lib/depcomp (tru64) [libtool]: Nicolas Joly reported on
2002-06-12 that dependencies were output in $dir.libs/$base.lo.d.
Teun Burgers reported on 2004-03-30 they were in
$dir.libs/$base.o.d. Try both.

* lib/install-sh: If "mv -f" works, use it, and fall back to
the old "test -f" + "rm -f" + "mv" method only if "mv -f" does
not work. This improves performance in the usual case where
"mv -f" works. It also lets us install the "mv" command
without worrying about a small window where "mv" does not
exist (this problem was reported by Raul Nunez de Arenas
Coronado).

Report from Miloslav Trmac.
2004-01-22 Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@gnu.org>

Automake variable definition. Ensure consistent :=/+=/=
definitions only for variables that have been and are defined by
Automake, and make it an internal error. Ignore Automake
attempts to touch a user variable, even with += assignments.

and do not output .o/.obj rules for libtool libraries. This is
about explicit rules only, not inference rules.
* automake.in (handle_single_transform_list): Rename as ...
(handle_single_transform): ... this. Take a single file
to transform (it was only called this way) and accept a new
%transform argument. Fill %lang_specific_files with list
references instead of strings, and append %transform to each
of these lists.
(define_objects_from_sources, handle_source_transform):
