+
+ docs: "aclocal --install -I /abs/dir" actually copies files
+
+ This change is for automake bug#8407.
+
+ In the past, there had been some debate and confusion about
+ whether "aclocal --install" should copy third-party .m4 files
+ in the first directory passed to the `-I' option even when
+ such directory was given as an absolute path, or whether it
+ was better to do so only for directories specified with a
+ relative path.
+
+ The rationale for this latter behaviour was that, before the
+ existence of the `ACLOCAL_PATH' variable, the only way (a poor
+ way, I might add) for a common user to extend the search path
+ of a system-wide installation of aclocal was to export something
+ like ACLOCAL="aclocal -I /my/extra/macros" in the environment.
+ Today, the correct way to proceed is undoubtedly through the
+ use of ACLOCAL_PATH, so we can settle the question once and for
+ all, and start verifying the correct behaviour of `-I' with a
+ new test.
+
+ * tests/aclocal-install-absdir.test: New test.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
+ * doc/automake.texi (aclocal Options): Be more explicit about
+ this part of `--install' semantics.

+
+ docs: fix node names for automake and aclocal invocations
+
+ With the older node names, an "info automake" command issued
+ from the command line would have opened the node about the
+ invocation of the automake program, rather than the Top node
+ of the automake documentation. To invoke the Top node, one
+ had to issue the command "info Automake" instead (note the
+ different capitalization). This was suboptimal, and certainly
+ confusing.
+
+ With this change, "info automake" will open the Top node of the
+ automake documentation; to access the nodes about the invocation
+ of the automake and aclocal program, one has now to issue "info
+ automake-invocation" and "info aclocal-invocation" respectively.
+
+ This change fixes automake bug#8071.
+

+
+ tests: fix handling of gettext macros requirement
+
+ The code introduced in the earlier change `v1.11-581-gb7d67d5'
+ and aimed at automatically fetching all the .m4 files provided by
+ gettext has proven inadequate, since it hasn't managed to truly
+ and always get *all* the required .m4 files. For example, it has
+ failed to fetch the file `intldir.m4' (present in gettext 0.18.1,
+ and where the macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR' is defined),
+ which in turn has caused spurious SKIPs of at least the test
+ `gettext3.test'.
+
+ The reason for this debacle is that autopoint looks at the version
+ specified in AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION to decide which version of the
+ gettext infrastructure to bring in; since we were unconditionally
+ specifying the older 0.10.35 version, the newer `.m4' files weren't
+ brought in.
+
+ * tests/gettext-macros.test: In AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION, instead
+ of unconditionally specifying the older 0.10.35 version, specify
+ the version of the available `gettextize' or `autopoint' program,
+ dynamically extracted with the help of ...
+ (extract_program_version):... this new function, and saved ...
+ ($autopoint_version): ... in this new variable.

+ tests: avoid spurious failure of libtool and gettext tests
+

+
+ tests: better handling of gettext and libtool requirements
+
+ This change fixes automake bug#9807.
+
+ Before this change, the automake testsuite only looked for the
+ `.m4' files containing libtool and gettext macros definitions in
+ the directory `${prefix}/share/aclocal' (and in the directories
+ specified by the `dirlist' file in there, if any), where ${prefix}
+ was the configure-time automake installation prefix (defaulting
+ to `/usr/local').
+
+ This approach had various shortcomings and disadvantages. Let's
+ briefly describe the three major ones.
+
+ First, on most GNU/Linux systems, a libtool or gettext installed
+ from distro-provided packages (e.g., by dpkg on Debian/Ubuntu, or
+ by rmp on RedHat/Fedora) would have `/usr', not `/usr/local', as
+ its ${prefix}; so, trying to run the automake testsuite with a
+ simple "./configure && make && make check" would have failed to
+ execute the libtool and gettext tests on most GNU/Linux distros.
+ It's true that it was quite easy to work around this issue, by
+ creating a proper `/usr/local/share/aclocal/dirlist' file with
+ an entry pointing to `/usr/share/aclocal' (a workaround in fact
+ used by most automake developers); but the typical user wasn't
+ aware of the necessity of this trick, so the libtool and gettext
+ tests was usually skipped on testsuite runs "in the wild", thus
+ needlessly reducing coverage.
+
+ Second, the older testsuite behaviour made more difficult for
+ the developers to run the testsuite with non-default libtool or
+ gettext. For example, assume the developer is working on a system
+ that has a default libtool version 1.5 installed in the /usr/local
+ hierarchy; to improve coverage, the developer installs also a more
+ modern libtool version, say 2.4, in its home directory, let's say
+ in ~/libtool-2.4; he then tries to run the automake testsuite with
+ this more modern libtool by doing an (apparently) simple:
+ $ PATH=$HOME/libtool-2.4:$PATH make check
+ But the automake testsuite would still look for libtool macros in
+ /usr/local/share/aclocal, not in ~/libtool-2.4/share/aclocal, so
+ the wrong version of the macros would be picked up, and the tests
+ would either fail spuriously or (which would be worse) pass without
+ truly covering the libtool version the developers was thinking to
+ be testing with.
+ Worse again, the automake testsuite would *unconditionally* look
+ for libtool macros in /usr/local/share/aclocal, so even something
+ like:
+ $ export ACLOCAL_PATH=$HOME/libtool-2.4/share/aclocal
+ $ PATH=$HOME/libtool-2.4:$PATH make check
+ wouldn't work.
+
+ Third and last, during a "make distcheck", automake is configured
+ with a ${prefix} pointing to a proper subdirectory of the build
+ directory (usually `pwd`/_inst), which gets created on-the-fly;
+ in this case, with the old approach, the automake testsuite never
+ found the libtool and gettext macro files, ans so the libtool and
+ gettext tests was *always* skipped in a "make distcheck".
+
+ * tests/libtool-macros.test: New helper test, looking (with the
+ help of the `libtoolize' script) for libtool macro files required
+ by most libtool tests, and making them easily accessible.
+ * tests/gettext-macros.test: New helper test, looking (with the
+ help of the `libtoolize' script) for libtool macro files required
+ by most libtool tests, and making them easily accessible.
+ * tests/defs.in: Update to make it rely on the results and setups
+ of `libtool-macros.test' and `gettext-macros.test'.
+ * tests/Makefile.am: Declare dependency of all the logs of libtool
+ tests from `libtool-macros.log', and all the logs of gettext tests
+ from `gettext-macros.log'.
+ (TESTS): Add the new tests.

+
+ tests: report useful system information in 'test-suite.log'
+ It has already happened various times that a user has run the
+ automake testsuite, experienced a failure, read the messages
+ telling him "See tests/test-suite.log" and "Please report to
+ bug-automake@gnu.org", and done exactly that -- sending us only
+ the contents of `tests/test-suite.log', which are usually not
+ enough to start debugging the reported failure. So we have to
+ ask him for more details, and usually also for the `config.log'
+ file generated by configure. It's time to fix this recurring
+ feedback inefficiency. We do so by creating a dummy test case
+ that takes care of copying the contents of `config.log', plus
+ other useful system information, in the final `test-suite.log'.
+ * tests/get-sysconf.test: New test, gathering system information
+ and then always terminating with a SKIP, so that its output gets
+ copied in `test-suite.log'.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.

+ devel: help in comparing Makefile.in from different commits
+ Now that the generated Makefile.in, configure and aclocal.m4 files
+ are no longer committed in Automake's git repository, a simple
+ "git diff" or "git log" no longer shows if and how a change in
+ Automake results in changes to the Makefile.in files and/or
+ configure script of its own build system. Still, the ability to
+ peek so easily at such differences has proved itself quite useful
+ in the past, often revealing inconsistencies and blunders, and
+ sometimes even bugs; so it would be a pity to lose that altogether.
+ With this change, we add a new maintainer recipe that re-introduces
+ much of that capability, by generating and comparing on the fly the

+ repo: don't commit generated files in the git repository anymore
+ It has been quite some time since autoconf and libtool have stopped
+ committing the generated autotools files in their git repositories,
+ with no significant ill effects we're aware of. It's true that the
+ autoconf bootstrap process has now the minor annoyance that a
+ pre-installed autoconf is required to complete it; but luckily
+ automake will not have a similar annoyance, since our bootstrap
+ script take care, through some hoops, to use the very automake and
+ aclocal versions from the current git checkout to generate the
+ required aclocal.m4 and Makefile.in files. In fact, this has been
+ a necessity also in the past, because automake has been known to
+ use in its own build system new development features that hadn't
+ been present in any previously released automake distribution.
+ * .gitignore: Ignore configure, aclocal.m4, and all the
+ Makefile.in files.

+ semantics (and maybe even create a somewhat corrupted tarball).
+ Also, it's worth noting that the main purpose of the `missing'
+ script is to allow a non-developer to build the package in the
+ face of slightly-skewed timestamps, not to provide wrappers for
+ all the maintainer tools -- so we don't have to try too hard
+ when `missing' is just called to wrap `tar'.

+ disadvantages: it slowed down our already-too-slow testsuite even
+ more, and, much worse, caused a lot of extra failures with FreeBSD,
+ all due to automake bug#7884, which is already exposed by the test
