+* Deprecated distribution formats:

+ - The 'shar' and 'compress' distribution formats are deprecated, and
+ scheduled for removal in Automake 2.0. Accordingly, the use of the
+ 'dist-shar' and 'dist-tarZ' will cause warnings at automake runtime
+ (in the 'obsolete' category), and the recipes for the Automake-generated
+ targets 'dist-shar' and 'dist-tarZ' will unconditionally display
+ (non-fatal) warnings at make runtime.
