* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Add extra blackslash
in front of all the inner double-quotes as this is removed
on Solaris, IRIX and AIX leading to broken definitions
in config.status.
bumping the version to 1.6 for the next release) is committed, the
timestamp in ChangeLog is updated, but ltmain.sh and libtoolize
inherit the pre-commit build number from config.status. This
delta notes the change in build number in the unstamped ChangeLog
and forces a rerun of configure etc. to roll a new ltmain.sh with
the correct TIMESTAMP:
* Makefile.am (stamp-vcl): We actually need a new config.status to
force the correct timestamp into libtoolize and ltmain.sh,
rerunning autoconf has no effect at all if configure.ac hasn't
changed.
libtoolize scripts to update when the TIMESTAMP changes in
ChangeLog, but the file modification time doesn't (e.g in cvs
commit). Otherwise we'll carry on releasing tarballs with the
wrong version numbers in the tools!
* configure.ac: Make the banner more like suggestions in
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards_toc.html Section 4.6.
* libtoolize.in: Make --version output conform to the GNU
standard.
* ltmain.in: Ditto. And tweak the generated file headers to
match.
isn't enough, because the TIMESTAMP in configure is still out
of date.
(configure): We actually need a new configure to force the
correct timestamp into ltmain.sh.

truthfully, and the difference between bootstrap and user
dependencies.
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): List AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS here.
* Makefile.am, doc/Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am
(AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Removed from here.
AC_PACKAGE_VERSION.
* Makefile.am (distdir): Remove dependency on timestamps so that
it is possible to roll a dist without contacting the cvs server.
Use `make cvs-release' for that.
(cvs-news): Extracted from cvs-dist.
(cvs-dist): Depend on cvs-news.
(CHECK_LASTRELEASE): Check LASTRELEASE has been set.
(prev-tarball): New rule. Use LASTRELEASE to make sure the
previous release tarball is present.
(cvs-diff): Use CHECK_LASTRELEASE.
(xdelta): Ditto.
(cvs-release): Depend on prev-tarball, timestamps, cvs-news and
fetch. Provided you set LASTRELEASE appropriately, making a full
cvs release is just a matter of `make cvs-release', and submitting
the files to ftp-upload.
_LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS.
(_LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG, AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Accumulate tag generation
for `config.status' using _LT_CONFIG_SAVE_COMMANDS. Remove
AC_MSG_NOTICE noise now that libtool is generated by a single
config.status tag.
* Makefile.am (libtool): Specify CONFIG_COMMANDS properly now that
libtool is generated in one pass.
tests/Makefile.am.
(DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST): Adjust to compensate for having removed the
`tests/' part in CONF_SUBDIRS.
* tests/Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): Distribute these directories.
(SUBDIRS): Set to `.', a NOP, to workaround an automake bug which
ignores DIST_SUBDIRS unless SUBDIRS is also set.
* Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): Don't try to distribute the tests
subdirectories from here, since the recursive automake dist rule
only works with direct child directories. Defer to
tests/Makefile.am in this case.
-prefer-pic and -prefer-non-pic until after tagged configuration
has been read. In link mode, read tagged configuration before
parsing any arguments. These arguments will now work when using
a non-C compiler.
tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Declare just
the tags we need using AC_LIBTOOL_TAGS, reducing the size of the
configure script by 50% in most cases.
then tweak the results by hand:
* m4/libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): In common with all the other
AC_PROG_ macros, AC_SUBST the discovered LD.
(AC_PROG_NM): Similarly for NM.
(LT_AC_PROG_SED): Similarly for SED.
* configure.ac: No need to SUBST NM and LD manually any more.
(AC_PREREQ): Conservatively downgrade from 2.59 to 2.54.
* tests/cdemo/configure.ac, tests/demo/configure.ac,
tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac: Ditto.
* m4/libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL, AM_ENABLE_SHARED,
AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED, AM_DISABLE_STATIC,
AM_PROG_LD, AM_PROG_NM): AU_DEFUN these macros so autoupdate can
use the newer definitions.
are in fact now rather complicated. This delta updates the
release instructions to the describe the new process, and updates
the maintainer rules to help automate many of the steps:
* README-alpha: Updated release instructions.
* Makefile.am (GPG): Name of the program for generating signatures
for files to be uploaded.
(XDELTA, XDELTA_OPTIONS): Invocation of xdelta.
(cvs-dist): Run distcheck before tagging the cvs tree incase
distcheck fails, and then generate the gpg signature files.
(cvs-diff): Generate the gpg signature files for the diff.
(xdelta): New rule for generating the xdelta diffs and associated
gpg signature files.
(cvs-release): New rule to do all of the above, if you don't mind
typing your gpg passphrase over and over again. :-)
(fetch): New rule inspired by automakes similar rule for updating
files maintained outside the project.
* config/config.guess, config/config.sub: Updated with the new
fetch rule.
added to the list, in exchange for appending loaders to the list
with O(N) rather than O(1). The longest the loader list can ever
get is 4 (on cygwin with dld installed) so it probably constitutes
a small speedup, in addition to making the code much more readable.
ltmain unconditionally.
(_LT_PROG_LTMAIN): New macro to ensure that the
shell variable `ltmain' actually points at a suitable `ltmain.sh'.
(_AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Require it.
(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG, _LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Invoke it.
* Makefile.am (libtool): ltmain.sh is in the build tree.
* libltdl/configure.ac: Ditto.
and $finalize_deplibs for programs) when found on the command line
or in a .la file's dependency_libs (but don't place them there) so
they are honoured when linking both programs and libraries.

AC_ENABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL, AM_PROG_LIBTOOL,
AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC, AM_DISABLE_SHARED,
AM_DISABLE_STATIC): These macros must be AC_DEFUNed after all,
otherwise aclocal can't find them when it tries to construct
`aclocal.m4'.
* Adjust ChangeLog dates to be when I committed, not when I posted
the patches.
* Adjust name/e-mail in ChangeLog to be the authors of the patches.
* Add missing NEWS entry for Owen's patch.
