* Prefer https: URLsPaul Eggert2017-09-161-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | * When computing lispdir, don't load emacs site wide init file.Andrew Burgess2014-12-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When computing the lispdir emacs was previously invoked with the '-q' option to avoid loading the users initialisation files, however, the site wide initialisation file was still loaded, in some cases this can cause emacs to hang, with the result that a configure can also hang. The lisp code that aclocal causes to be executed reduces the load-path list (in emacs) to empty. The load-path is used by emacs to find packages which it wants to load. Currently, if emacs tries to auto load a package during shut down, and the package is not found, then emacs will hang. This does seem like an emacs bug, but protecting against this in aclocal is simply a case of not loading the site wide initialisation file. In this patch then the '-q' option to emacs is replaced with '-Q', this has the same, the '-Q' option is similar to '-q --no-site-file --no-splash'. * doc/automake.texi (Hard-Coded Install Paths): Update explanation of emacs code used to get lispdir. * m4/lispdir.m4 (AM_PATH_LISPDIR): Update emacs flags.

The fact that Automake-generated Makefiles places compiled object files in the current directory by default, also when the corresponding source file is in a subdirectory, is basically an historical accident, due to the fact that the 'subdir-objects' option had only been introduced in April 1999, starting with commit 'user-dep-gen-branchpoint-56-g88b5959', and never made the default, likely to avoid backwards-compatibility issues. Since we believe the behaviour enabled by the 'subdir-objects' is the only natural and most useful one, we make it the only only one available, simplifying the Automake implementation and APIs a little in the process. This change is basically an adjusted backport of Automake-NG commit 'v1.12.1-313-g14fe163' of 2012-06-07, "[ng] subdir-objects: enable unconditionally". * NEWS: Update. * doc/automake.texi (Program and Library Variables): The output object files are no longer placed in the current directory by default, but rather in the same directory of the source file. (LIBOBJS): Now the $(LIBOBJS) and $(ALLOCA) variables can also be used outside of the directory where their sources lie. (List of Automake options): Report the 'subdir-objects' option as a no-op, existing only for compatibility with older versions of Automake. Other related minor adjustments. * bin/automake.in (LANG_PROCESS): Remove, it's no longer needed. (handle_languages): Don't test whether option 'subdir-objects' is set (just assume it is), and do not use the '%SUBDIROBJ%' transform when processing '.am' fragments. (lang_sub_obj): Delete, it would just return 'LANG_SUBDIR' unconditionally now. (lang_lex_rewrite): Adjust. Don't test whether the option 'subdir-objects' is set (just assume it is). (lang_yacc_rewrite): Likewise. (handle_single_transform): Likewise. Remove an obsolete comment. Add a proper "FIXME" comments about a fragment of code that might have become dead code now. (handle_LIBOBJS_or_ALLOCA): Simplify assuming that the option 'subdir-objects' is always set. Accordingly, there's no need to warn anymore if '$(LIBOBJS)' or '$(ALLOCA)' are used outside the '$config_libobj_dir' directory (as specified by autoconf macro 'AC_CONFIG_LIBOBJ_DIR'). * lib/am/depend2.am: Assume the '?SUBDIROBJ?'
