Update to 1.8:
* New features
- Default source file names in the absence of a _SOURCES declaration
are made by removing any target extension before appending `.c', so
to make the libtool module `foo.la' from `foo.c', you only need to
do this:
lib_LTLIBRARIES = foo.la
foo_la_LDFLAGS = -module
For backward compatibility, foo_la.c will be used instead of
foo.c if this file exists or is the explicit target of a rule.
However -Wobsolete will warn about this deprecated naming.
- AR's `cru' flags are now set in a global ARFLAGS variable instead
of being hard-coded in each $(AR) invocation, so they can be
substituted from configure.ac. This has been requested by people
dealing with non-POSIX ar implementations.
- New warning option: -Woverride. This will warn about any user
target or variable definitions which override Automake
definitions.
- Texinfo rules back up and restore info files when makeinfo fails.
- Texinfo rules now support the `html' target.
Running this requires Texinfo 4.0 or greater.
`html' is a new recursive target, so if your package mixes
hand-crafted `Makefile.in's with Automake-generated
`Makefile.in's, you should adjust the former to support (or
ignore) this target so that `make html' recurses successfully. If
you had a custom `html' rule in your `Makefile.am', it's better to
rename it as `html-local', otherwise your rule will override
Automake's new rule (you can check that by running `automake
-Woverride') and that will stop the recursion to subdirectories.
Last but not least, this `html' rule is declared PHONY, even when
overridden. Fortunately, it appears that few packages use a
non-PHONY `html' rule.
- Any file which is m4_included from configure.ac will appear as a
configure and Makefile.in dependency, and will be automatically
distributed.
- The rules for rebuilding Makefiles and Makefile.ins will now
rebuild all Makefiles and all Makefile.ins at once when one of
configure's dependencies has changed. This is considerably faster
than previous implementations, where config.status and automake
were run separately in each directory (this still happens when you
change a Makefile.am locally, without touching configure.ac or
friends). Doing this also solves a longstanding issue: these
rebuild rules failed to work when adding new directories to the
tree, forcing you to run automake manually.
- For similar reasons, the rules to rebuild configure,
config.status, and aclocal.m4 are now defined in all directories.
Note that if you were using the CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES and
CONFIGURE_DEPENDENCIES (formerly undocumented) variables, you
should better define them in all directories. This is easily done
using an AC_SUBST (make sure you prefix these dependencies with
$(top_srcdir) since this variable will appear at different
levels of the build tree).
- aclocal will now use `m4_include' instead of copying local m4
files into aclocal.m4. (Local m4 files are those you ship with
your project, other files will be copied as usual.)
Because m4_included files are automatically distributed, it means
for most projects there is no point in EXTRA_DISTing the list of
m4 files which are used. (You can probably get rid of
m4/Makefile.am if you had one.)
- aclocal will avoid touching aclocal.m4 when possible, so that
Autom4te's cache isn't needlessly invalidated. This behavior can
be switched off with the new `--force' option.
- aclocal now uses Autoconf's --trace to detect macros which are
actually used and will no longer include unused macros simply
because they where mentioned. This was often the case for macros
called conditionally.
- New options no-dist and no-dist-gzip.
- compile, depcomp, elisp-comp, install-sh, mdate-sh, mkinstalldirs,
py-compile, and ylwrap, now all understand --version and --help.
- Automake will now recognize AC_CONFIG_LINKS so far as removing created
links as part of the distclean target and including source files in
distributions.
- AM_PATH_PYTHON now supports ACTION-IF-FOUND and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND
argument. The latter can be used to override the default behavior
(which is to abort).
- Automake will exit with $? = 63 on version mismatch. (So does
Autoconf 2.58) missing knows this, and in this case it will
emulate the tools as if they were absent. Because older versions
of Automake and Autoconf did not use this exit code, this change
will only be useful in projects generated with future versions of
these tools.
- When using AC_CONFIG_FILES with multiple input files, Automake
generates the first ".in" input file for which a ".am" exists.
(Former versions would try to use only the first input file.)
- lisp_DATA is now allowed. If you are using the empty ELCFILES
idiom to disable byte-compilation of lisp_LISP files, it is
recommended that you switch to using lisp_DATA. Note that
this is not strictly equivalent: lisp_DATA will install elisp
files even if emacs is not installed, while *_LISP do not
install anything unless emacs is found.
- Makefiles will prefer `mkdir -p' over mkinstalldirs if it is
available. This selection is achieved through the Makefile
variable $(mkdir_p) that is set by AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE to either
`mkdir -m 0755 -p --', `$(mkinstalldirs) -m 0755', or
`$(install_sh) -m 0755 -d'.
* Obsolete features
- Because `mkdir -p' is available on most platforms, and we can use
`install-sh -d' when it is not, the use of the mkinstalldirs
script is being phased out. `automake --add-missing' no longer
installs it, and if you remove mkinstalldirs from your package,
automake will define $(mkinstalldirs) as an alias for $(mkdir_p).
Gettext 1.12.1 still requires mkinstalldirs. Fortunately
gettextize and autopoint will install it when needed. Automake
will continue to define the $(mkinstalldirs) and to distribute
mkinstalldirs when this script is in the source tree.
- AM_PROG_CC_STDC is now empty. The content of this macro was
merged in AC_PROG_CC. If your code uses $am_cv_prog_cc_stdc, you
should adjust it to use $ac_cv_prog_cc_stdc instead. (This
renaming should be safe, even if you have to support several,
versions of Automake, because AC_PROG_CC defines this variable
since Autoconf 2.54.)
- Some users where using the undocumented ACLOCAL_M4_SOURCES
variable to override the aclocal.m4 dependencies computed
(inaccurately) by older versions of Automake. Because Automake
now tracks configure's m4 dependencies accurately (see m4_include
above), the use of ACLOCAL_M4_SOURCES should be considered
obsolete and will be flagged as such when running `automake
-Wobsolete'.
* Bug fixes
- Defining programs conditionally using Automake conditionals no
longer leads to a combinatorial explosion. The following
construct used to be troublesome when used with dozens of
conditions.
bin_PROGRAMS = a
if COND1
bin_PROGRAMS += a1
endif
if COND2
bin_PROGRAMS += a2
endif
if COND3
bin_PROGRAMS += a3
endif
...
Likewise for _SOURCES, _LDADD, and _LIBADD variables.
- Due to implementation constraints, previous versions of Automake
proscribed multiple conditional definitions of some variables
like bin_PROGRAMS:
if COND1
bin_PROGRAMS = a1
endif
if COND2
bin_PROGRAMS = a2
endif
All _PROGRAMS, _LDADD, and _LIBADD variables were affected.
This restriction has been lifted, and these variables now
support multiple conditional definitions as do other variables.
- Cleanup the definitions of $(distdir) and $(top_distdir).
$(top_distdir) now points to the root of the distribution
directory created during `make dist', as it did in Automake 1.4,
not to the root of the build tree as it did in intervening
versions. Furthermore these two variables are now only defined in
the top level Makefile, and passed to sub-directories when running
`make dist'.
- The --no-force option now correctly checks the Makefile.in's
dependencies before deciding not to update it.
- Do not assume that make files are called Makefile in cleaning rules.
- Update .info files in the source tree, not in the build tree. This
is what the GNU Coding Standard recommend. Only Automake 1.7.x
used to update these files in the build tree (previous versions did
it in the source tree too), and it caused several problems, varying
from mere annoyance to portability issues.
- COPYING, COPYING.LIB, and COPYING.LESSER are no longer overwritten
when --add-missing and --force-missing are used. For backward
compatibility --add-missing will continue to install COPYING (in
`gnu' strictness) when none of these three files exist, but this
use is deprecated: you should better choose a license yourself and
install it once for all in your source tree (and in your code
management system).
- Fix ylwrap so that it does not overwrite header files that haven't
changed, as the inline rule already does.
- User-defined rules override automake-defined rules for the same
targets, even when rules do not have commands. This is not new
(and was documented), however some of the automake-generated
rules have escaped this principle in former Automake versions.
Rules for the following targets are affected by this fix:
clean, clean-am, dist-all, distclean, distclean-am, dvi, dvi-am,
info, info-am, install-data-am, install-exec-am, install-info,
install-info-am, install-man, installcheck-am, maintainer-clean,
maintainer-clean-am, mostlyclean, mostlyclean-am, pdf, pdf-am,
ps, ps-am, uninstall-am, uninstall-info, uninstall-man
Practically it means that an attempt to supplement the dependencies
of some target, as in
clean: my-clean-rule
will now *silently override* the automake definition of the
rule for this target. Running `automake -Woverride' will diagnose
all such overriding definitions.
It should be noted that almost all these targets support a *-local
variant that is meant to supplement the automake-defined rule
(See node `Extending' in the manual). The above rule should
be rewritten as
clean-local: my-clean-rule
These *-local targets have been documented since at least
Automake 1.2, so you should not fear the change if you have
to support multiple automake versions.
* Miscellaneous
- The Automake manual is now distributed under the terms of the GNU FDL.
- Targets dist-gzip, dist-bzip2, dist-tarZ, dist-zip are always defined.
- core dumps are no longer removed by the cleaning rules. There are
at least three reasons for this:
1. These files should not be created by any build step,
so their removal do not fit any of the cleaning rules.
Actually, they may be precious to the developer.
2. If such file is created during a build, then it's clearly a
bug Automake should not hide. Not removing the file will
cause `make distcheck' to complain about its presence.
3. Operating systems have different naming conventions for
core dump files. A core file on one system might be a
completely legitimate data file on another system.
- RUNTESTFLAGS, CTAGSFLAGS, ETAGSFLAGS, JAVACFLAGS are no longer
defined by Automake. This means that any definition in the
environment will be used, unless overridden in the Makefile.am or
on the command line. The old behavior, where these variables were
defined empty in each Makefile, can be obtained by AC_SUBSTing or
AC_ARG_VARing each variable from configure.ac.
- CONFIGURE_DEPENDENCIES and CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES are now
documented. (The is not a new feature, these variables have
been there since at least Automake 1.4.)

Update to 1.9.1:
Bugs fixed in 1.9.1:
This release fixes three longstanding bugs.
* Adjust #line directives in `parser.h' (when ylwrap is not used).
(PR/432)
* Fix definition of YLWRAP when ylwrap is installed in a default
aux directory found in a parent package.
* Properly recognize AC_CANONICAL_BUILD and AC_CANONICAL_TARGET.
New in 1.9:
* Makefile.in bloat reduction:
- Inference rules are used to compile sources in subdirectories when
the `subdir-objects' option is used and no per-target flags are
used. This should reduce the size of some projects a lot, because
Automake used to output an explicit rule for each such object in
the past.
- Automake no longer outputs three rules (.o, .obj, .lo) for each
object that must be built with explicit rules. It just outputs
the rules required to build the kind of object considered: either
the two .o and .obj rules for usual objects, or the .lo rule for
libtool objects.
* Change to Libtool support:
- Libtool tags are used with libtool versions that support them.
(I.e., with Libtool 1.5 or greater.)
- Automake is now able to handle setups where a libtool library is
conditionally installed in different directories, as in
if COND
lib_LTLIBRARIES = liba.la
else
pkglib_LTLIBRARIES = liba.la
endif
liba_la_SOURCES = ...
* Changes to aclocal:
- aclocal now ensures that AC_DEFUNs and AU_DEFUNs it discovers are
really evaluated, before it decides to include them in aclocal.m4.
This solves nasty problems with conditional redefinitions of
Autoconf macros in /usr/share/aclocal/*.m4 files causing extraneous
*.m4 files to be included in any project using these macros.
(Calls to AC_PROG_EGREP causing libtool.m4 to be included is the
most famous instance of this bug.)
- Do not complain about missing conditionally AC_REQUIREd macros
that are not actually used. In 1.8.x aclocal would correctly
determine which of these macros were really needed (and include
only these in the package); unfortunately it would also require
all of them to be present in order to run. This created
situations were aclocal would not work on a tarball distributing
all the macros it uses. For instance running aclocal on a project
containing only the subset of the Gettext macros in use by the
project did not work, because gettext conditionally requires other
macros.
* Portability improvements:
- Tar format can be chosen with the new options tar-v7, tar-ustar, and
tar-pax. The new option filename-length-max=99 helps diagnosing
filenames that are too long for tar-v7. (PR/414)
- Variables aumented with `+=' are now automatically flattened (i.e.,
trailing backslashes removed) and then wrapped around 80 colummns
(adding trailing backslashes). In previous versions, a long series
of
VAR += value1
VAR += value2
VAR += value3
...
would result in a single-line definition of VAR that could possibly
exceed the maximum line length of some make implementations.
Non-augmented variables are still output as they are defined in
the Makefile.am.
* Miscellaneous:
- Support Fortran 90/95 with the new "fc" and "ppfc" languages.
Works the same as the old Fortran 77 implementation; just replace
F77 with FC everywhere (exception: FFLAGS becomes FCFLAGS).
Requires a version of autoconf which provides AC_PROG_FC (>=2.59).
- Support for conditional _LISP.
- Support for conditional -hook and -local rules (PR/428).
- Diagnose AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR calls following AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE. (PR/49)
- Automake will not write any Makefile.ins after the first error it
encounters. The previous Makefile.ins (if any) will be left in
place. (Warnings will not prevent output, but remember they can
be turned into errors with -Werror.)
- The restriction that SUBDIRS must contain direct children is gone.
Do not abuse.
- The manual tells more about SUBDIRS vs. DIST_SUBDIRS.
It also gives an example of nested packages using AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS.
