- Update to 1.15: New in 1.15: * Improvements and refactorings in the install-sh script: - It has been modernized, and now makes the following assumptions unconditionally: (1) a working 'dirname' program is available; (2) the ${var:-value} shell parameters substitution works; (3) the "set -f" and "set +f" shell commands work, and, respectively, disable and enable shell globbing. - The script implements stricter error checking, and now it complains and bails out if any of the following expectations is not met: (1) the options -d and -t are never used together; (2) the argument passed to option -t is a directory; (3) if there are two or more SOURCEFILE arguments, the DESTINATION argument must be a directory. * Automake-generated testsuites: - The default test-driver used by the Automake-generates testsuites now appends the result and exit status of each "plain" test to the associated log file (automake bug#11814). - The perl implementation of the TAP testsuite driver is no longer installed in the Automake's scripts directory, and is instead just distributed as a "contrib" addition. There should be no reason to use this implementation anyway in real packages, since the awk+shell implementation of the TAP driver (which is documented in the manual) is more portable and has feature parity with the perl implementation. - The rule generating 'test-suite.log' no longer risk incurring in an extra useless "make all" recursive invocation in some corner cases (automake bug#16302). * Distribution: - Automake bug#18286: "make distcheck" could sometimes fail to detect files missing from the distribution tarball, especially in those cases where both the generated files and their dependencies are explicitly in $(srcdir). An important example of this are generated makefile fragments included at Automake time in Makefile.am; e.g.: ... $(srcdir)/fragment.am: $(srcdir)/data.txt $(srcdir)/preproc.sh cd $(srcdir) && $(SHELL) preproc.sh <data.txt >fragment.am include $(srcdir)/fragment.am ... If the use forgot to add data.txt and/or preproc.sh in the distribution tarball, "make distcheck" would have erroneously succeeded! This issue is now fixed. - As a consequence of the previous change, "make distcheck" will run using '$(distdir)/_build/sub' as the build directory, rather than simply '$(distdir)/_build' (as it was the case for Automake 1.14 and earlier). Consequently, the './configure' and 'make' invocations issued by the distcheck recipe now have $(srcdir) equal to '../..', rather than to just '..'. Dependent and similar variables (e.g., '$(top_srcdir)') are also changed accordingly. Thus, Makefiles that made assumptions about the exact values of the build and source directories used by "make distcheck" will have to be adjusted. Notice that making such assumptions was a bad and unsupported practice anyway, since the exact locations of those directories should be considered implementation details, and we reserve the right to change them at any time. * Miscellaneous bugs fixed: - The expansion of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE ends once again with a trailing newline (bug#16841). Regression introduced in Automake 1.14. - We no longer risk to use '$ac_aux_dir' before it's defined (see automake bug#15981). Bug introduced in Automake 1.14. - The code used to detect whether the currently used make is GNU make or not (relying on the private macro 'am__is_gnu_make') no longer risks causing "Arg list too long" for projects using automatic dependency tracking and having a ton of source files (bug#18744). - Automake tries to offer a more deterministic output for generated Makefiles, in the face of the newly-introduced randomization for hash keys order in Perl 5.18. - In older Automake versions, if a user defined one single Makefile fragment (say 'foo.am') to be included via Automake includes in his main Makefile.am, and defined a custom make rule to generate that file from other data, Automake used to spuriously complain with some message like "... overrides Automake target '$(srcdir)/foo.am". This bug is now fixed. - The user can now extend the special .PRECIOUS target, the same way he could already do with the .MAKE .and .PHONY targets. - Some confusing typos have been fixed in the manual and in few warning messages (automake bug#16827 and bug#16997). - Remove automake-fix-ac_aux_dir-used-before-initialized.patch as the change is incorporated now. - Refresh automake-SuSE.patch and automake-require_file.patch so that they apply cleanly.
