Give an example + of where its use is legitimate. + Suggestions from Ralf Wildenhues and Eric Blake. + +2011-06-14 Stefano Lattarini + + ansi2knr: deprecate, it will go away in the next major release + * doc/automake.texi: Loudly and repeatedly state that the old + de-ANSI-fication features are now deprecated and will be removed + in the next major Automake release. Other related adjustments. + * lib/Automake/Options.pm (_process_option_list ): Give a warning + in the `obsolete' category when the `ansi2knr' option is used. + * m4/protos.m4 (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Deprecate this macro: a warning + in the `obsolete' category will be emitted it if is used. + * tests/ansi2knr-deprecation.test: New test. + * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. + * tests/ansi.test: Adjust, by calling autoconf and/or automake + with the `-Wno-obsolete' flag. + * tests/ansi10.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi2.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi3.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi3b.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi4.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi5.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi6.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi7.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi8.test: Likewise. + * tests/ansi9.test: Likewise. + * tests/cxxansi.test: Likewise. + * tests/libobj8.test: Likewise. + * NEWS: Update about the future planned backward-incompatibility + due to the removal of de-ANSI-fication feature. + +2011-06-19 Stefano Lattarini + + docs: primary/prefix combination "pkglib_PROGRAMS" is now invalid + * doc/automake.texi (Program Sources): pkglib_PROGRAMS is not a + valid combination anymore, so don't document it. Inconsistency + introduced in commit `v1.11-373-g9ca6326'. + +2011-06-19 Jim Meyering + + docs: replace obsolete @vindex entry with a useful one + * doc/automake.texi (Program Sources): Do not index obsolete + pkglib_PROGRAMS here. Do index pkglibexec_PROGRAMS. + +2011-06-13 Stefano Lattarini + + tests: optimize tests on primary/prefix mismatch for speed + * tests/primary-prefix-invalid-couples.test: Partial rewrite, in + order to use just a single automake invocation rather than one + invocation for each invalid primary/prefix couple. This improves + the test script execution time by an order of magnitude. + Since we are at it, throw in some other improvements to avoid + unrelated automake warnings and failures that could potentially + cause false positives w.r.t. the automake exit status. + 2011-06-13 Stefano Lattarini news: update w.r.t. introduction of AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS
