Please report bugs to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
Bugs fixed in 1.9.4:
* Longstanding bugs:
- Portability nits in install-sh and mdata-sh.
- Don't let `make install' fails if a _JAVA primary becomes empty
because of conditionals.
- Do not confuse CHANGELOG with ChangeLog on case-insensitive
case-preserving file systems (likewise for all automatically
distributed files).
- Do not embed $DESTDIR in Python's byte-code files.
- Work around programs that read stdin when checking for --version
and --help options (when the `std-options' is used).
- Fix AM_PATH_PYTHON to correctly define PYTHON as `:' when no minimum
version was supplied and no interpreter is found.
* Noteworthy manual updates:
- Conditional Subdirectories: more comments about non-distributed
subdirectories.
- Flag Variables Ordering: new FAQ entry.
- Per-Object Flags: new FAQ entry.
