Also, look for LT_INIT, not + AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, in the error message (bug introduced with commit + v1.11-315-gd51e7b7 "libtool: suggest LT_INIT if LTLIBRARIES + primary is used"). + From a report by Patrick Welche. + +2011-03-04 Stefano Lattarini + + tests: fix bug (comments-in-var-defn.test + autoconf 2.62) + * tests/comments-in-var-defn.test: The configure.in stub created + by default, which has the AC_INIT first argument obtained by the + test name, causes autoconf 2.62 to fail with a spurious error + message like: "configure.in:1: error: defn: undefined macro:". + Thus, to prevent this, the test is renamed to ... + * tests/comments-in-var-def.test: ... this. + * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Updated. + +2011-03-04 Stefano Lattarini + + cosmetics: convert encoding from ISO-8859 to UTF-8 + * ChangeLog.03: Convert encoding to UTF-8. + * ChangeLog.96: Likewise. + * ChangeLog.98: Likewise. + * NEWS: Likewise. + * TODO: Likewise. + +2011-03-01 Peter Rosin + + test defs: unindent without temporary file + * tests/defs.in (commented_sed_unindent_prog): Commented Sed program + that strips the "proper" amount of leading whitespace. + (unindent): Lazily strip comments from the above program and use it + to unindent without using a temporary file. + +2011-02-26 Stefano Lattarini + + libtool: suggest LT_INIT if LTLIBRARIES primary is used + When the LTLIBRARIES primary was used, but $(LIBTOOL) wasn't + defined, automake suggested to add a call to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL + in configure.ac. But that macro is deprecated since Libtool + version 1.9b (2004-08-29), in favor of the newer LT_INIT. So + suggest the use of this latter macro instead. + * lib/Automake/Variable.pm (%_am_macro_for_var): Pair 'LIBTOOL' + with 'LT_INIT', not with 'AC_PROG_LIBTOOL'. + * libtool4.test: Adjust and extend. Also, add a call to macro + AC_PROG_CC in configure.in, to help ensuring that automake does + not fail for the wrong reasons. + * ltinit.test: New test, ensure that automake's libtool support + works with LT_INIT-based interface. + Thanks to Jack Kelly for the suggestion. + +2011-02-20 Stefano Lattarini + + tests: tempdirs with restrictive permissions are cleaned correctly + Before this change, the removal of a temporary test directory + containing subdirectories with restrictive permissions (such as + 'r--r--r--') could fail. + * tests/defs: Ensure that all the subdirectories of a temporary + test directory have the 'read', 'write' and 'execute' bits set, + before trying to remove it with `rm -rf'. + * tests/Makefile.am (clean-local-check): Likewise. + +2011-02-16 Stefano Lattarini + Ralf Wildenhues + + test defs: add subroutine for input unindenting + * tests/defs.in (unindent): New subroutine. + +2011-02-15 Stefano Lattarini + + python: report the 'PYTHON' influential environment variable + * m4/python.m4 (AM_PATH_PYTHON): Call AC_ARG_VAR on PYTHON. + * doc/automake.texi (Python): Update and extend. + * tests/help-python.test: New test. + * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update. + * THANKS (Jack Kelly): Update e-mail address. + Suggestion by Jack Kelly. + +2011-02-10 Stefano Lattarini + + tests defs: clear TESTS_ENVIRONMENT variable + * tests/defs.in (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Unset it, so that values + from environment won't interfere with the testcases. + Suggestion by Ralf Wildenhues. + +2011-02-06 Stefano Lattarini + + tests: tweak few tests on simple and parallel test drivers + * tests/check-exported-srcdir.test: Improve heading comments. + * tests/check-tests-in-builddir.test: Likewise.
