-2011-10-24 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- tests: ensure VPATH autom4te search path can find autotests.
- * Makefile.am (tests/testsuite): Passing only $(srcdir) include path
- to autom4te is unable to find tests/package.m4, and passing only
- $(srcdir)/tests breaks VPATH build searches for TESTSUITE_AT files,
- which are relative to $(srcdir)... so we pass both!
- * NEWS: Updated.
- Reported by Bob Friesenhahn.
-
-2011-10-24 Karl Berry <karl@gnu.org>
-
- doc: modernize libtool.texi.
- * libtool.texi (@copying): Use this instead of @ifnottex; format for

- instead of duplicating text.
- (@syncodeindex): Move all to the Texinfo header, where they belong.
- (@dircategory): Use "Software development" instead of "GNU programming
- tools", for consistency; and align individual entries to avoid

- bizarre.
-
-2010-09-26 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>

-
-2010-09-26 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>

- Makefile.

- adding the extra line to delete boilerplate variable settings
- from libltdl/config/general.m4sh that don't apply here.
- (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Use it.
-
-2010-09-25 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- maint: DRYing out `Makefile.am' file paths.
- * Makefile.am (aux_dir, macro_dir): Include `$(srcdir)' in
- declaration. Adjust all references.
- (doc_dir, ltdl_dir, m4sh_dir, tests_dir): New single location
- to hold directory paths, all including `$(srcdir)', to reduce
- typing.
- (LT_M4SH): Use `$m4sh_dir' as include directory.
- (defs): This one is for a file in the build-tree, so no
- leading `$(srcdir)'.
-
-2010-09-25 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- CLEANUP: fix error from pushing too far up the branch.
- * Makefile.am (install-data-local): Undo character transposition
- from too early push of untested v2.4-17-gaf74d58.
-
-2010-09-23 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- maint: use macro_dir consistently in all files.
- * Makefile.am: Replace all uses of m4dir with macrodir to
- match AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR.
- * libltdl/config/libtoolize.m4sh: Replace all uses of macrodir
- with macro_dir.
- * tests/defs.m4sh, tests/sh.test: Likewise.
-
- maint: use aux_dir consistently in all files.
- * Makefile.am, Makefile.maint: Replace all uses of auxdir
- with aux_dir to match AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR.
- * libltdl/config/libtoolize.m4sh: Likewise.
- * tests/defs.m4sh, tests/getopt-m4sh.at: Likewise.
-
-2010-09-24 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- Makefile: try to be robust against shell meta-chars in filenames.
- * Makefile.am: In each rule body, unless a make variable needs
- to be seen as multiple words by the shell (for word-splitting
- loops, or because it contains several commands), quote it. Use
- single quotes unless the shell needs to perform variable inter-
- polation, in which case use double quotes.
-
-2010-09-24 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- maint: let make employ user's `SED' setting.
- * Makefile.am: Replace hard-coded `sed' with `$(SED)' through-
- out.
-
-2010-08-30 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- maint: simplify and improve safety of bootstrap process.
- * Makefile.am (bootstrap_files): List files that need to be
- generated at bootstrap time before `./configure && make' can
- work. It turns out that this is considerably fewer files than we
- had thought necessary previously.
- (bootstrap-deps-prep): Ensure minimum set of required substitution
- variables are non-empty.
- (bootstrap-deps): Depend on `bootstrap' files.
- * bootstrap (Generate bootstrap dependencies): Now that
- `Makefile.am' is entirely responsible for rebuilding files at
- bootstrap time, we need only specify the new `bootstrap-deps'
- target, and supply values for the substitutions checked by
- `bootstrap-deps-prep'.
- * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR): `libtoolize.in' is not here yet
- right after running `bootstrap'. So rely on the presence of
- `libtoolize.m4sh', which is always there.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: eliminate superfluous temporary files from `Makefile.am'.
- * Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Remove temporary file entries.
- (libtoolize.in, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4)
- (tests/defs, tests/testsuite): Factor away temporary files.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: eliminate `ltmain.in' and `libtoolize.in' intermediate files.
- * Makefile.am (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libtoolize.in): Pipe
- the output of `$(LT_M4SH)' directly into `$(bootstrap_edit)' to
- avoid use of superfluous intermediate file.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: don't hardcode repeated long paths in Makefile rules.
- According to the DRY principle, scattering several copies of
- something across a file or project leads to pain. Let's not
- do that!
- * Makefile.am (Makefile_in, Makefile_inc, defs_in, defs_m4sh),
- (libtoolize_in, ltmain_m4sh, ltversion_in): New variables to
- hold the location of important files and targets.
- (EXTRA_DIST): Add the distributed ones by variable.
- (libtoolize, libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4)
- (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/stamp-mk, tests/defs)
- (tests/defs.in): Use the new variables to reduce noise and
- repetition.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: make better use of automatic variables in `Makefile.am'.
- * Makefile.am (libtoolize, libtoolize.in, libltdl/Makefile.am)
- (libltdl/config/mkstamp, libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh)
- (libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, tests/testsuite, tests/defs.in):
- Make better use of automatic variables.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: name temporary files in `Makefile.am' consistently.
- Sadly, we still have to jump through hoops for MICROS~1's very
- old, very broken 8.3 naming convention, so we have to be careful
- to be unique in the first 8 letters, and not to use two periods
- in a filename, otherwise we could use the much more elegent
- `temporary files use "$@T"' idiom:
- * Makefile.am (libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4): Rename temporary file
- to `ltversion.tmp'.
- (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Rename temporary file to
- `libltdl/config/ltmain.tmp'.
- (libtoolize): Rename temporary file to `libtoolize.tmp'.
- (tests/defs): Rename temporary file to `tests/defs.tmp'
- (tests/testsuite): Rename temporary file to `tests/testsuite.tmp'.
- (CLEANFILES): Append temporary files as we create rules that
- use them.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: factor Makefile.am `m4sh' invocations to LT_M4SH.
- * Makefile.am (LT_M4SH): Now that all directories are listed as
- fully qualified paths, the search path argument to M4SH is always
- the same, so factor it out into a variable. Adjust all callers.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: avoid unnecessary directory changes in Makefile rules.
- * Makefile.am (doc/notes.txt, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4,
- (libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libtoolize.in, libltdl/Makefile.am)
- (libltdl/config/mkstamp, tests/testsuite, tests/defs.in): Avoid
- unnecessary `cd' commands by using fully qualified paths to files
- outside of current directory.
-
-2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: compare `revision' rather than `correctver' in Makefile.am.
- * Makefile.am (rebuild): Set the shell variable `revision' rather
- than `correctver' for clarity of purpose.
- (bootstrap_edit, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Adjust.
- (libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4): Likewise, and alse, instead of munging
- the serial number comment line with set, extract `macro_version'
- from this file, and compare it directly with `revision'.
- (libtool): Likewise for `package_revision'.
-
-2010-10-20 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- build: avoid spurious bootstrap_edit call.
- * Makefile.am (tests/package.m4): @FOO@ substitutions have already
- been made by the time Makefile.am has been transformed into Makefile,
- so don't try to rerun the substitutions manually with
- $(bootstrap_edit) after the fact.
-

-5. Editing 'ChangeLog'
-======================
-
-* When in doubt, check that emacs can syntax-color properly in
- change-log-mode. And preferably use emacs 'C-x 4 a'
- (add-change-log-entry-other-window) to open ChangeLog with an
- appropriate new template.
-
-* If this change is by a different author, or on a different date to the
- last entry start a new entry at the top of the file with the format
- (note two spaces between each field):
-
-yyyy-mm-dd Name of Author <email@address>
-
-* If more than one person collaborated on the change, additional
- authors can be listed on subsequent lines, thus:
-
-yyyy-mm-dd Name of Main Author <email@address>,
- Name of Contributor <another@email.address>
-
-* Where a change author did not supply a copyright assignment, but the
- changes they submitted were sufficiently trivial to commit in any case
- (see the GCS for guidelines on this), then flag this against their
- name in the header, thus:
-
-yyyy-mm-dd Name of Author <email@address> (tiny change)
-
-* In ChangeLog.2004 and earlier, 'Name of Author' was sometimes the name
- of the author of the ChangeLog when the person who made the change
- being documented didn't supply one. In that case separated from
- the previous field by a blank line and indented by 1 tab (note, only
- 1 space between fields here) you will see:
-
- From Author of Actual Change <email@address>:
-
- As of now, don't do that anymore, since the GNU Coding Standards say
- that the author of the change must be credited in the main entry
- header for legal purposes.
-
-* Preferably the next part should be a description of the overall
- purpose of the change, separated from the header by a blank line,
- indented by 1 tab, and filled at column 72. The last character of the
- description should be a period. Ideally, this description fits on one
- line, or begins with a one-line summary.
-
-* Changes to each file come next. Each new file starts on a new line,
- indented by 1 tab and starting with an asterisk and a space. Multiple
- files can be listed here relative to $top_srcdir, and comma separated.
- Names of functions (or sections as appropriate) to which the change
- applies should be named inside parentheses and comma separated. If
- this goes beyond column 72, then parens should be closed and re-opened
- on the next line:
-
- * file, another/file, test/testcases/foo.test (func_foo)
- (func_bar, func_baz): Description of changes.
-
-* If the change does not apply to particular functions (or sections),
- the section list can be omitted:
-
- * file, another/file, test/testcases/foo.test: General changes.
-
-* If the changes are particular to certain architectures, they should be
- listed after the functions in square brackets:
-
- * file, another/file (func_foo) [linux, solaris]: Description of
- changes.
-
-* Subsequent changes in other files that are related to the same overall
- enhancement or bugfix should be listed concurrently, without blank
- lines. Always start a fresh line for a new file:
-
- * file, another/file (func_foo) [linux, solaris]: Description of
- changes.
- * doc/foo.texi (Invoking Foo): Document.
- * NEWS: Updated.

- This is the overall description of the purpose of this change
- and any useful background for a model ChangeLog entry.
-
- * HACKING: Updated copyright. This isn't attached to a
- particular section of the file, so it comes first.
- (Editing 'ChangeLog'): New section. This applies to the same
- file, but since it applies to a particular section it starts on
- a new line.
- (Introduction, Maintenance Notes, Test Suite, Naming)
- (Editing '.am' Files): If I had changed all these sections in
- the same way, I can list them like this, being careful to close
- and reopen the parentheses when starting a new line. The colon
- only comes after the last section before this description.
- * NEWS: Updated.

-11. Licensing Rules
+10. Licensing Rules
===================
GNU Libtool uses 3 different licenses for various of the files distributed
-11.1. Notice preservation
+10.1. Notice preservation
Autoconf macros and files used to generate them need this license, along
with files such as HACKING, NEWS, README, README.alpha, TODO and
-11.2. GPL
+10.2. GPL
Everything else in the distribution has the following license text
unless there is good reason to use one of the other license texts
-11.3. GPL with self extracting version
+10.3. GPL with self extracting version
Some of the sources built atop the getopt.m4sh framework use
func_version() to extract their --version output from the copyright
-11.4. GPL with self extracting version and Libtool exception clause
+10.4. GPL with self extracting version and Libtool exception clause
Although the libtool script is generated from `ltmain.m4sh' according
to the rules in the preceding subsection, it also needs the Libtool
-11.5. LGPL with Libtool exception clause
+10.5. LGPL with Libtool exception clause
Finally, not only is Libltdl is LGPLed, but it is routinely
redistributed inside projects that use it, so its sources need to use
projects / thirdparty / libtool.git / commitdiff
