for a number of years. Much of what it said was outdated, or
plain wrong with reference to modern autotools. This change
represents a first pass edit to clean up the obviously wrong.
`configure.ac' to be more like AC_INIT and accept a space
delimited list of options. Instead of calling `AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN;
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL', we now recommend `LT_INIT([dlopen])':
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
(AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): Removed. Added AU_DEFUNs.
(LT_INIT): Replace with an Autoconf like interface which accepts a
version number as a minimum required libtool release at configure
time.
* m4/ltoptions.m4: New file inspired by automake/m4/amoptions.m4,
which additionally flags an error if the configuring libtool
macros are not new enough according to LT_INIT.
(LT_OPTION_DEFINE): New macro to declare option handlers.
(dlopen, win32-dll, shared, disable-shared, static)
(disable-static, fast-install, disable-fast-install, pic-only)
(no-pic): Newly LT_OPTION_DEFINEd option handlers that use...
(_LT_ENABLE_SHARED, _LT_ENABLE_STATIC, _LT_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL)
(_LT_WITH_PIC, _LT_WIN32_DLL): New macros to handle
LT_LIBTOOL_INIT options...
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_ENABLE_SHARED, AC_ENABLE_STATIC)
(AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN, AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL):
...to replace these user interface macros, now defined as
AU_DEFUNs.
(AC_DISABLE_SHARED, AC_DISABLE_STATIC, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL):
Removed. No longer required with LT_INIT_LIBTOOL interface.
Added AU_DEFUNs.
(AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC)
(AM_DISABLE_STATIC): Changed AU_DEFUNs to match new interface.
(_LT_SETUP): Internal to LT_INIT, replaces AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP.
* m4/lt~obsolete.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, _AC_PROG_LIBTOOL)
(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): More AC_DEFUNs that have been retracted.
* configure.ac: Use new interface.
* doc/libtool.texi: Document new interface.
* NEWS: Updated.
removing initial '1.' from the revision, replace @MACRO_SERIAL@
with this new variable.
* m4/ltversion.in: Use @MACRO_SERIAL@ for the serial number
as some shells don't like a '.' when using test.
build directory not the source directory, where they won't exist
during 'make distcheck'.
* ltmain.in: Revert one line of previous intendation clean-up
to enable one of the sh.test checks to pass.
maintainers only out of the Makefile we distribute and into one
that we only need keep in CVS.
* README-alpha: Add -fMakefile.maint to the instructions where
needed.
* ltmain.in: Fix typo: duplcations -> duplications,
Fix indentation of a handful of badly indented blocks,
Fix last remaining use of 'grep' to $GREP,
Remove unnecessary trailing slash where we break a line on a
command separator.
* m4/libtool.m4: Also remove unnecessary trailing slash where
we break a line on a command separator.
$SED from definitions of $dirname and $basename and prefix each
use with it instead. Some shells (zsh) treat the expansion as
a single command instead of a command with arguments.
on IRIX 6.5. On IRIX 6.4+, sh is ksh but when the shell is invoked
as "sh" and the current value of the _XPG environment variable is
not equal to 1 (one), the special positional parameter $0, within
a function call, is the name of the function. So, rather than
using "$0" in functions, we set $progpath in the body and use that
everywhere instead (incase of code refactoring later).
(EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE, EXIT_MISMATCH): For clarity.
* m4/lt~obsolete.m4, tests/cdemo/configure.ac: Arghh. cvsapply just
went crazy and committed a bunch of stuff that shouldn't have been
in the last changeset. The patch backs it all out.
are being used.
* Makefile.am (m4/ltversion.m4): New rule to create it from
m4/ltversion.in.
(nodist_pkgmacro_DATA): Add m4/ltversion.m4.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add m4/ltversion.in.
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): AC_REQUIRE LTVERSION_VERSION
from ltversion.m4.
* bootstrap: Call the Makefile.am to create an initial
m4/ltversion.m4.
* ltmain.in: Diagnose version mismatches of various flavours.
* TODO: Remove mismatch item.
* NEWS: Updated.
* configure.ac (CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES): This substitution is
how automake-1.8 now informs all Makefiles when config.status
needs to be rebuilt.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz <adl@src.lip6.fr>
beginning with LT_ and _LT_.
* configure.ac (LT_MAJOR, LT_MINOR, LT_MICRO, LT_ALPHA): Renamed
to lt_major, lt_minor, lt_micro, lt_alpha to save triggering the
unexpanded macros error.
and config.sub executable after they are installed as _DATA.
We can't use _SCRIPTS because the various program name
transforms may be applied to them.
(dist_pkgdata_DATA): List config.guess and config.sub here
(pkgdata_SCRIPTS): instead of here.
rather than running chmod afterwards, preventing a race
condition where the directory could be replaced with a symbolic
link in the time between the two commands.
