(AC_INIT): Dispatch your arguments either to _AC_INIT_PACKAGE or
to AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR.
(AU::AC_INIT): New.
* configure.in: Adjust.
Use `#', not `dnl'.
* doc/autoconf.texi (configure.in Layout): Document the new form
of AC_INIT.
Document AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR.
(Obsolete Macros): Document the old one.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_PACKAGE): New macro.
(_AC_COPYRIGHT_SEPARATOR): Remove.
(AC_COPYRIGHT): Adjust.
(_AC_INIT_HELP, _AC_INIT_VERSION): Name the package you configure
when you want.
(_AC_INIT): Adjust.
* configure.in (AC_PACKAGE): Add.
Some CVS tricks were used so that history is kept in both the top
directory, and in doc/.
* doc/Makefile.am: New file.
* Makefile.am: Adjusted.
* configure.in: Adjusted.
* autoconf.texi: Moved from here to...
* doc/autoconf.texi: here.
* make-stdts.texi: Likewise.
* install.texi: Likewise.
* texinfo.tex: Likewise.
Introduce a new style of testing, independent from DejaGNU.
Introduce the logistics.
* configure.in: Initialize AT, and output tests/atconfig, and
tests/Makefile.
* m4/atconfig.m4: New file.
* m4/Makefile.am: Adjusted.
* aclocal.m4: Include atconfig.m4.
* Makefile.am: Adjusted.
* tests/Makefile.am: New file.
* tests/atgeneral.m4: Likewise.
* tests/atconfig.in: Likewise.
Write tests.
* tests/syntax.m4: New file, in charge of checking the validity of
the sh code produced by the macros defined in acspecific.m4.
acgeneral.m4 is not checked here, because these macros require
arguments.
* tests/suite.m4: New file. Run syntax.m4.
Require GNU m4 1.4 (well 1.3 in fact).
Because we are ready to handle the case where there are no frozen
files, we *have* to pass a -I, which is dangerous in conjunction
with the silent including of `aclocal.m4': you may include things
that were not expected. Since anyway handling pre 1.3 complicates
the task, just require an m4 which supports reloading of frozen
files.
* acspecific.m4 (AC_PROG_GNU_M4): Check for --reload.
* autoconf.sh: Likewise
* autoheader.sh: Likewise.
* configure.in: Explicitly state the m4 version you want.
Create man pages for the executables.
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add `man' and prepend `.' so that
executables be built before help2man is run.
* configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): Add man/Makefile.
AC_MSG_ERROR, not AC_ERROR.
Check for missing help2man.
* man/Makefile.am: New file.
* man/autoconf.x: Likewise.
* man/autoreconf.x: Likewise.
* man/autoheader.x: Likewise.
* man/autoscan.x: Likewise.
* man/autoupdate.x: Likewise.
* man/ifnames.x: Likewise.
* man/common.x: Likewise.
Allow standard beta version numbers.
* configure.in: Declare version 2.14a.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_UNGNITS): New macro which transform version
numbers to pure digits (2.14a to 2.14.0.1, 2.15z to 2.15.0.26
etc.).
(AC_PREREQ): Normalize argument and AC_ACVERSION via AC_UNGNITS.
* configure: Regenerate.
* aclocal.m4: New generated file.
* Makefile.in: Regenerate with Automake.
* testsuite/Makefile.in: Likewise.
1999-10-31 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
Use Automake. Based on files from Ben Elliston.
* acgeneral.m4: No longer define AC_ACVERSION, include
acversion.m4.
* acversion.m4.in: New AC_CONFIG_FILE.
* acspecific.m4: Few formating changes.
* autoconf.texi: No longer define EDITION, VERSION and UPDATED:
include version.texi.
AC_OUTPUT the Makefiles mentioned below and acversion.m4.
* configure.in: Use AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
Do not AC_ARG_PROGRAM: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE does it.
* Makefile.am: New file.
* mdate-sh: Likewise.
* missing: Likewise.
* testsuite/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* configure.in: Check if an appropriate version of GNU m4 is
installed at configure-time rather than at runtime. From Pavel
Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>. Fix for autoconf/2.
