automake runs distcheck in make all, not make install
This means make is picking up DESTDIR from the environment
This means the variable needs to be unset
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
automake runs distcheck using DESTDIR, however if it is overridden
on the command line it overrides it for all sub-make invokations.
So it runs its distcheck in our DESTDIR. It then does not clean
up after itself, so we get automake.build/... in the chunk.
The defaulting of overriding DESTDIR is because it has no ill effects
on most projects, and it fails to work if not specified on some others

Or maybe this situation is the consequence of a minor blunder in

On newer Cygwin versions (at least 1.7.x), the 'transform2.test'
test has been failing spuriously; the gist is the following:
some *purposefully* rigged install rules there try something
like:
install bla.exe .../inst/bin/foo.exe
install script.sh .../inst/bin/foo
and the second install command fails (trying to overwrite the
'.../inst/bin/foo.exe' file, likely due to overly aggressive
appending of '.exe' suffix when copying/renaming Windows
executables). Since this is a Cygwin issue rather than an
Automake one (and since the use case we are testing is a really
corner-case anyway, making it unworthy to attempt to work
around it in automake proper), we simply hack the test case
to avoid the failure.

* tests/deleted-am.test: Sleep between the removal of the included

If automake detected an usage like "AC_CONFIG_FILES([./Makefile])"
in configure.ac, it warned that such an usage was unportable to
non-GNU make implementations. But the truth is actually worse:
that is actually *unportable to GNU make* itself, since it breaks
the automatic remake rules in subtle ways.
So we now reveal this breakage in a new test case, and enhance
the warning by giving it a more precise and correct wording, and
by moving it from the category 'portability' to the category
'unsupported'.
* automake.in (scan_autoconf_config_files): Improve the warning.
* tests/conffile-leading-dot.test: New test.
* tests/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.

The older Makefile rules used to create and tag the releases were
based on an approach we now consider flawed: they over-mechanized
some delicate operations that are better performed manually *and*
double-checked by a developer, and at the same time they did not
run enough safety checks.

still relevant.

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.

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.
|
| | | |

| | |
| | |

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 ...

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.

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).

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

* 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.

* tests/vala.test: Extend test. Throw in some cosmetic and
consistency changes since we are at it.
* tests/vala5.test: Avoid uselessly requiring libtool. Ensure a
failure happens in case VALAFLAGS are not supported as expected.
Extend test in some ways. 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.

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.
