Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in' files compliant with the GNU Coding Standards. This is routine packaging update for automake-1.5, and contains the latest version of the automake 1.5 series, automake-1.5.
This cygwin package, automake1.5, can be installed without conflict alongside the existing automake1.14 ... automake1.6, and automake1.4 cygwin packages. CHANGES SINCE 1.5-10 ====================================================================== * Rely on cygport to autogenerate setup.hints * Update config.sub/config.guess to latest standard (supports cygwin64) * Use 'alternatives' only for documentation; rely on wrapper to handle the tools themselves. * First cygwin64 release Testsuite Results ====================================================================== cyg32| 4 of 324 tests failed cyg64| 4 of 324 tests failed ====================================================================== Testsuite Details: ====================================================================== both| FAIL: installsh.test This appears to be due to a warning issued by new perl when parsing Wrap.pm: "Useless use of /d modifier in transliteration operator at .../lib/Automake/Wrap.pm line 60." This messes up the expected stderr output. both| FAIL: listval.test both| FAIL: subdircond.test both| FAIL: suffix2.test This version of automake does not understand new libtool's multi-m4 file structure, and so unexpected warnings are emitted. These errors all appear to be related to platform updates (perl, libtool) and do not actually represent regressions in automake itself, so to speak. -- Charles Wilson volunteer automake maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
