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.
tests/depdemo/configure.ac, tests/f77demo/configure.ac,
tests/mdemo/configure.ac, tests/mdemo2/configure.ac,
tests/pdemo/configure.ac, tests/tagdemo/configure.ac:
s/AM_PROG_LIBTOOL/AC_PROG_LIBTOOL/. Marching boldly into the 21th
century :-$
checkout by generating ltmain.sh, using that to create libtool,
and then adding the tags to that, all from config.status.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Make config/ltmain.sh, and copy
it to libltdl.
* Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/config/ltmain.sh): This file is now
created by config.status. Adjust this rule.
(libtoolize): Set CONFIG_COMMANDS to empty to prevent regenerating
the libtool script as a side effect of running this rule.
* libtool.m4: Bump serial number. Fix comment typos.
(_LT_CONFIG_LIBTOOL_INIT, _LT_CONFIG_LIBTOOL,
_LT_CONFIG_SAVE_COMMANDS, _LT_CONFIG_COMMANDS: New macros. They
don't work for some reason - the variable value quoting in the
init section is all wrong. Not used at the moment.
(AC_LIBTOOL_CONFIG): Generate libtool from config.status.
(_LT_AC_TAG_CONFIG): Add the tags in config.status.
(compiler_DEFAULT): Save the compiler value for the DEFAULT tag,
or it gets overwritten by the other macros.
(EOF): Globally replace with _LT_EOF to avoid namespace pollution.
* tests/demo/configure.ac (STATIC): Check $enable_static instead
of running ./libtool which doesn't exist yet.
(BINARY_HELLDL): Check $lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe with case
instead of grepping ./libtool which doesn't exist yet.
* tests/pdemo/configure.ac (STATIC, BINARY_HELLDL): Ditto.
* doc/libtool.texi (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add some notes about trying
to get config details from `libtool --config'.
* NEWS: Updated.
tests/defs, and move the various demo directories out of
$top_srcdir, and into tests too. The refactoring showed up a
number of inconsistencies and latent bugs, as well as fixing (I
think!!) the long-standing annoyance with some of the tests giving
spurious failures intermittently. While I was here, emacs kindly
removed a lot of bogus whitespace and added copyright notices for
us:
* cdemo, demo, depdemo, f77demo, mdemo, mdemo2, pdemo, tagdemo:
Moved from here...
* tests/cdemo, tests/demo, tests/depdemo, tests/f77demo,
tests/mdemo, tests/mdemo2, tests/pdemo, tests/tagdemo: ...to
here.
* tests/defs: Factor much common functionality from the test
scripts into shell functions. Added a copyright notice.

* Makefile.am: Added a copyright notice.

* libtool.m4, ltdl.m4: Moved from here...
* m4/libtool.m4, m4/ltdl.m4: ...to here, respectively.
* configure.ac: Removed various acinclude.m4 hackery, as these
files are no longer needed with automake 1.8.
* Makefile.am: Removed various acinclude.m4 hackery, as these
files are no longer needed with automake 1.8.
(AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Require CVS automake.
(CONF_SUBDIRS, CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS, FFLAGS, FLIBS):
Automake now makes a Make variable from every AC_SUBST, so these
are NOP.
(aclocal_macros): These files are now in their own m4 subdir.
Changed all clients.
(EXTRA_DIST): mkstamp has moved to the new config subdir. Changed
all clients.
(pkgdata_SCRIPTS): Ditto wrt config.guess and config.sub.
(pkgdata_DATA): Ditto wrt ltmain.sh.

(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Declare that config helper scripts are now
kept in the new config subdir.
* libltdl/configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Removed. Defaults to
`.' anyway.
