| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Now, since Automake 1.12, the latter implementation is fully functional and already used in the wild, and in fact feature-par with the perl implementation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rationale for this change is that it is annoying to have to repeat the directory name when including a Makefile fragment. For deep directory structures these repeats can generate a lot of bloat. It also hinders reuse and easy directory restructuring if all Makefile fragments have to know exactly where they live. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn, and later discussed in bug#13524. In the course of discussion, the following notations were rejected: &{reldir}& - to hard to type, {reldir} - interferes with ${reldir}, {am_reldir} - short form {D} interferes with ${D}, @am_reldir@ - short form @D@ interferes with AC_SUBST([D]) as well as invading the config.status turf. Other notations were also suggested... * automake.in (read_am_file): Add third argument specifying the relative directory of this Makefile fragment compared to the main Makefile. Replace %reldir% and %canon_reldir% in the fragment with this relative directory (with slashes etc, or canonicalized). (read_main_am_file): Adjust. * t/preproc-reldir.sh: New test. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Augment. * doc/automake.texi (Include): Document the new feature. NEWS: Add new feature.
