I have a project that has a TESTS variable like this ('test_progs' is
defined elsewhere):
TESTS = run-bindtests \
$(sort \
$(patsubst %,%.bc,$(test_progs)) \
$(patsubst %,%.opt,$(test_progs)))
This breaks with automake 1.13.1. 'make' gives unterminated variable
errors. It is fairly obvious why when you look at the generated code:
run-bindtests.log: run-bindtests
@p='run-bindtests'; \
b='run-bindtests'; \
$(am__check_pre) $(LOG_DRIVER) --test-name "$$f" \
--log-file $$b.log --trs-file $$b.trs \
$(am__common_driver_flags) $(AM_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) $(LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) -\
- $(LOG_COMPILE) \
"$$tst" $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT)
$(sort.log: $(sort
@p='$(sort'; \
b='$(sort'; \
$(am__check_pre) $(LOG_DRIVER) --test-name "$$f" \
--log-file $$b.log --trs-file $$b.trs \
$(am__common_driver_flags) $(AM_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) $(LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) -\
- $(LOG_COMPILE) \
"$$tst" $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT)
$(patsubst.log: $(patsubst
@p='$(patsubst'; \
b='$(patsubst'; \
$(am__check_pre) $(LOG_DRIVER) --test-name "$$f" \
--log-file $$b.log --trs-file $$b.trs \
$(am__common_driver_flags) $(AM_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) $(LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) -\
- $(LOG_COMPILE) \
"$$tst" $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT)
%,%.bc,$(test_progs)).log: %,%.bc,$(test_progs))
This used to work fine in automake <= 1.12. I also tried jamming the
whole thing into a single line, but that didn't help.
