Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in' files compliant with the GNU Coding Standards. This package contains the latest version of the automake system in the automake-1.9.x series, automake-1.9.6.
This cygwin package, automake1.9, can be installed without conflict alongside the existing automake1.10, automake1.8, automake1.7, automake1.6, automake1.5, and automake1.4 cygwin packages. This is the first release specific for cygwin-1.7; the only differences between this package and the simultaneously-released automake1.9-1.9.6-3 for cygwin-1.5 are documentation related (the README references cygport-0.9.2 and cygwin-1.7.0-30, and the /usr/share/doc/ layout is influenced by the cygport changes between 0.4.0 and 0.9.2). Changes (automake1.9-1.9.6-2 ---> automake1.9-1.9.6-10) * This version marks the beginning of cygwin-1.7 specific ports. Releases 1.9.6-3 thru 1.9.6-9 are reserved for cygwin-1.5. * Update packaging to use stock cygport-0.9.2 * Fix setup.hint * Import fixes from gentoo * Ensure distcheck passes when using libtool-2.2 and the LT_OUTPUT macro appears in configure.ac. * Ensure /usr/share/aclocal directory is preserved Testsuite results: ===================================== 0 of 545 tests failed (23 tests were not run) ===================================== (results differ from those reported for cygwin-1.5 because this was run as Administrator) -- Charles Wilson volunteer automake maintainer for cygwin
