2012-08-31maint: fixup: don't try to distribute a now-removed fileStefano Lattarini
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Drop 'check.mk', which has been removed (being merged into 'tests/Makefile.am') by recent changes.
2012-08-31doc: escape double quotes in autotools-install --helpErik Auerswald
* scripts/autotools-install: Fix --help so that we actually print the double quotes around "make check", in two places.
2012-08-31scripts: add autotools-install, for those stuck with outdated toolsJim Meyering
* scripts/autotools-install: New script, so you can always build from git-cloned sources, even when they require bleeding edge m4, autoconf, automake, etc.
2012-08-31build: fix syntax-check rules broken by test-added .sh/pl suffixesBernhard Voelker
* cfg.mk: We exempt a few test files that would otherwise trigger false-positive matches in syntax-check rules. The recent change that added a .sh or .pl suffix to each test script made it so some of the exclusion regexps would no longer match. Include the required \.sh suffix in each such regexp, too.
2012-08-30tests: get rid of the 'shell-or-perl' auxiliary scriptStefano Lattarini
It's now easier and faster to simply run the perl ans shell test scripts directly with the appropriate interpreter and options. * tests/shell-or-perl: Delete. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it. (SH_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct shell. (PL_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct perl interpreter ... (TESTSUITE_PERL_OPTIONS): ... with the correct options. (XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Use those options instead of inlining their expansion. (LOG_COMPILER): Delete, no longer needed.
2012-08-30tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectivelyStefano Lattarini
Not only this shrinks the size of the generated Makefile (from > 6300 lines to ~3000), but will allow further simplifications in future changes. * tests/Makefile.am (TEST_EXTENSIONS): Add '.sh' and '.pl'. (PL_LOG_COMPILER, SH_LOG_COMPILER): New, still defined simply to $(LOG_COMPILER) for the time being. (TESTS, root_tests): Adjust as described. * All tests: Rename as described.
2012-08-30tests: detect missing perl at configure runtimeStefano Lattarini
* configure.ac (AM_CONDITIONAL): Set the conditional 'HAVE_PERL' to true if the configure-time checks (as run by gl_PERL) have been able to find a working perl. * tests/no-perl: New script, report a diagnostic about "missing perl" and exit with status 77. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute it. (TESTSUITE_PERL): New, define to '$(PERL)' if a perl interpreter has been found at configure time (i.e., if the 'HAVE_PERL' automake conditional is true), and to '$(srcdir)/no-perl' otherwise. (LOG_COMPILER): Use $(TESTSUITE_PERL) instead of $(PERL). (XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Likewise. * tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify: no need to actually check whether perl is working.
2012-08-30tests: avoid use of '-T' in shebang line to enable perl taint modeStefano Lattarini
* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Rename ... * tests/rm/fail-eperm.xpl: ... like this * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Adjust. (TEST_EXTENSIONS): New, list '.xpl'. (XPL_TEST_LOGS): New, run a perl test in tainted mode. * tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify this script: we no longer need to parse the shebang line and adjust the flags in the perl invocation accordingly.
2012-08-30build: require Automake >= 1.11.2Stefano Lattarini
Now that we use AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, we must require Automake >= 1.11.2. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump version requirement to 1.11.2. * bootstrap.conf ($buildreq): Likewise.
2012-08-30tests: prefer AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT over TESTS_ENVIRONMENTStefano Lattarini
The latter should be reserved for user overrides. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Rename ... (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): ... like this.
2012-08-30tests: merge tests/check.mk into tests/Makefile.amStefano Lattarini
The separation has become unnecessary after all the ancient 'tests/*/Makefile.am' makefiles have been merged into the "more-top-level" one 'tests/Makefile.am'. * tests/check.mk: Merge ... * tests/Makefile.am: ... in here. Some comments tweaking while at it.
2012-08-30build: enable the 'subdir-objects' Automake option globallyStefano Lattarini
This is not strictly required now (it will be once we make more parts of the coreutils build system non-recursive), but enabling it early helps to ensure that we don't unwittingly introduce any incompatibility or subtle breakage later. * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Add 'subdir-objects'.
2012-08-30maint: update gitignore entriesStefano Lattarini
* doc/.gitinore: Here, adding the '.dirstamp' file generated by the Texinfo rules.
2012-08-30build: factor out a little more re list of *.texi filesJim Meyering
We may well want to switch from checking all *.texi to checking only version-controlled .texi files, so encapsulate this concept in one place. * doc/local.mk (doc_srcdir): Delete. Use this instead: (texi_files): Define. All usages adjusted.
2012-08-30maint: adjust syntax check 'sc_option_desc_uppercase'Stefano Lattarini
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Here, by grafting the 'man/' prefix to the manpages obtained from $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT) and listed as prerequisites for this rule.
2012-08-30maint: adjust syntax check 'check-x-vs-1'Stefano Lattarini
* cfg.mk (check-x-vs-1): Here, by stripping 'man/' prefix from $(dist_man1_MANS) entries before comparing them with the list of expected programs.
2012-08-30maint: move man-related syntax checks in cfg.mkStefano Lattarini
This is more natural, now that the top-level Makefile has access to all the variables and rules once defined only in 'man/Makefile.am' * man/local.mk (all_programs, sc_option_desc_uppercase, sc_man_file_correlation check-x-vs-1, check-programs-vs-x): Move from here ... * cfg.mk: ... to here. Adjust some comments in the process.
2012-08-30build: don't use recursive make to build the 'man' subdirectoryStefano Lattarini
* Makefile.am: Include 'man/local.mk'. (SUBDIRS): Remove 'man'. * configure.ac ($MAN): Adjust so that each of its entries has a leading 'man/' component. (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'man/Makefile'. * man/Makefile.am: Rename ... * man/local.mk: ... like this. With further adjustments: each 'foo.1' target renamed like 'man/foo.1', each '../src/foo.c' dependency as 'src/foo.c', and each '$(srcdir)' usage as '$(srcdir)/man'. Also ... (mandep): Adjust, removing the leading '../' component. Several whitespace adjustments while at it. (ASSORT): Remove, it's already defined in the top-level Makefile.am. * cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase, sc_man_file_correlation): Remove the associated recipes, they are now directly available from the included 'man/local.mk'. Actually, the other changes in this commit have made these recipes instable and not completely correct, but that will be fixed in later changes.
2012-08-30build: rework some recipes in man/Makefile.am, for future changesStefano Lattarini
This change is merely required to make future changes easier. In particular, since we are going to merge the contents of 'man/Makefile.am' into the top-level Makefile, we need to avoid conflicts with the rules and variables in 'dist-check.mk', and to prepare for changes in the value of the '$*' variable as used in the recipe of the '.x -> .1' suffix rule. * man/Makefile.am (t, mapped_name): Delete, inlining their use ... (.1.x): ... in the recipe of this suffix rule. Other adjustments to prepare to changes in the value of the '$*' automatic variable. While at it, made more resilient about unlikely but possible failure. Adjust and reorder few comments.
2012-08-30build: provide convenience target 'all_programs' also at top-levelStefano Lattarini
This will be mostly useful in future changes. * Makefile.am (all_programs): New, simply work by delegating to the same-named target in the 'src/' subdirectory. * cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Take advantage of it. (sc_man_file_correlation): Likewise.
2012-08-30build: make a rule less dependent on exact source tree layoutStefano Lattarini
This is mostly a preparatory change in view of future ones. * man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Use '$(abs_top_builddir)/src' to access the 'src' directory.
2012-08-30build: rely on VPATH capabilities in man/MakefileStefano Lattarini
* man/Makefile.am: In all the 'foo.1' targets, no need to depend explicitly on '$(srcdir)/foo.x': the '.x.1' suffix rule takes care of that automatically.
2012-08-30maint: typofix: s/it's/its/Stefano Lattarini
* man/Makefile.am: Here.
2012-08-30build: rename common_dep -> mandep in man/MakefileStefano Lattarini
This is mostly a preparatory refactoring in view of future changes. * man/Makefile.am (common_dep): Rename ... (mandep): ... like this. All usages adjusted.
2012-08-30build: fix a stray usage of uninitialized $(ME)Stefano Lattarini
* man/Makefile.am (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Here.
2012-08-30build: add an explanatory commentStefano Lattarini
* man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Describe portability issues of the idiom we now use. Reformat the definition a little while at it.
2012-08-30maint: simplify definition of $MAN in configure.acStefano Lattarini
* configure.ac: Here, by making less use of 'sed' and 'tr' munging, and relying on a smarter and simpler shell loop instead.
2012-08-30build: don't define $(SUFFIXES) explicitlyStefano Lattarini
* man/Makefile.am (SUFFIXES): Remove definition: Automake is smart enough to extract the list of suffixes from the '.x.1' suffix rule automatically.
2012-08-30build: don't use recursive make to build the 'doc' subdirectoryStefano Lattarini
* doc/Makefile.am: Rename ... * doc/local.mk: ... like this. With further adjustments ... (info_TEXINFOS): Prepend 'doc/' to all '*.texi' files listed in here. (coreutils_TEXINFOS): Likewise, and rename ... (doc_coreutils_TEXINFOS): ... like this. (constants.texi): Rename ... (doc/constants.texi): ... like this. Adjust the recipe to avoid spurious errors. (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Adjust, and extend with '+=' rather than setting it with '='. (ME): Delete. (find_upper_case_var): Use '$@', not '$(ME)', in error messages. * Makefile.am: Include 'doc/local.mk'. (SUBDIRS): Remove 'doc'. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'doc/Makefile'.
2012-08-30build: use 'check-local' to extend the 'check' targetStefano Lattarini
* doc/Makefile.am (check-local): Here, by making this depend on 'check-texinfo' ... (check): ... rather than this. While the old usage worked, it did so for an implementation detail rather than a documented behaviour, so relying on that was riskier a "unclean".
2012-08-30build: prefer '$(top_srcdir)/doc' over '$(srcdir)' in doc MakefileStefano Lattarini
This is just a preparatory refactoring that will become useful in a future change (in which the doc/Makefile.am makefile will be merged with the top-level one). * doc/Makefile.am (doc_srcdir): New, define to '$(top_srcdir)/doc'. Use it throughout instead of "bare" '$(srcdir)'.
2012-08-30build: add extra *.texi files to coreutils_TEXINFOS, not EXTRA_DISTStefano Lattarini
* doc/Makefile.am (coreutils_TEXINFO): List them here, instead of ... (EXTRA_DIST): ... listing them here. This ensures the rebuild rules will be more faithful. ($(DVIS), $(INFO_DEPS)): No need to depend on $(EXTRA_DIST) now.
2012-08-30maint: slightly improve .gitignoreStefano Lattarini
* .gitignore: Ignore '.deps' only when it's a directory. Ignore '*.trs' only if they are in a subdirectory of the 'tests/' directory.
2012-08-30build: don't abuse Automake internals (with its 'check-am' rule)Stefano Lattarini
* tests/check.mk (check-am): Remove; obtain the same effect by moving its dependency '.built-programs' ... (check_DATA): ... to this variable.
2012-08-30scripts: git commit message hook: prohibit use of "Signed-off-by:"Jim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Reject a commit log message that contains "Signed-off-by:".
2012-08-30tests: remove useless defn of REPLACE_GETCWD from TESTS_ENVIRONMENTStefano Lattarini
It's last use had been removed in commit v8.12-3-g3ed91fc of 2011-04-28, "tests: remove useless test: misc/pwd-unreadable-parent". * tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Adjust. Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
2012-08-30tests: fix misc/sort-exit-early to skip if rootNick Alcock
* tests/misc/sort-exit-early: skip_if_root_ as this test requires an unwritable input and an unreadable output.
2012-08-29tail,stat: improve support for ZFSJim Meyering
This change enables tail -f to use inotify and lets stat -f --format=%T report the file system type name, "zfs". * src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: zfs, 0x2fc12fc1. * NEWS (Improvements): Mention it. * THANKS.in: Update. Reported by Raimonds Miltins in http://bugs.gnu.org/12301.
2012-08-26build: update gnulib submodule to latestJim Meyering
2012-08-26maint: stop using @acronym{...} in texinfo sourcesJim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi: Remove all uses of @acronym{...}, per recommendation by Karl Berry. * doc/perm.texi: Likewise. * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove exemption, enabling the @acronym{-prohibiting syntax-check rule.
2012-08-26tests: don't require @acronym{...} around POSIXJim Meyering
* doc/Makefile.am (check-texinfo): Remove POSIX-checking part.
2012-08-26df: allow translators to reorder "1K-blocks" headerNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy
* src/df.c (get_header): Mark two "%s-%s" strings for translation and give translators a hint what each is for.
2012-08-24md5sum, sha*sum: add --tag to output a format indicating the algorithmOndrej Oprala
The format used is the BSD traditional format which looks like: MD5 (/dev/null) = d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e * NEWS: Add new feature info. * doc/coreutils.texi (md5sum invocation): Add detailed information about the new --tag option. * src/md5sum.c: Add the new --tag option for BSD-style output. (bsd_split_3): Add ESCAPED_FILENAME parameter. (print_filename): New function refactored from main(). (filename_unescape): New function refactored from split_3(). * tests/misc/md5sum-bsd: Add tests for the new feature.
2012-08-23rm: fix the new --dir (-d) option to work with -iRob Day
* src/remove.c (prompt): Hoist the computation of is_empty, since we'll need it slightly earlier. Before, this function would arrange to fail with EISDIR when processing a directory without --recursive (-r). Adjust the condition to exempt an empty directory when --dir has been specified. Improve comments. * tests/rm/d-3: New file, to ensure that rm -d -i dir works. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * THANKS.in: Update. Reported by Michael Price in http://bugs.gnu.org/12260
2012-08-22tests: correct print_ver_ arguments and add a rule to enforce thisBernhard Voelker
We use print_ver_ to run "PROG --version" for each program under test. Some tests have been derived from others, while the argument(s) to print_ver_ have not been adapted. Add a new cfg.mk rule to prohibit this. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_calls_print_ver_with_irrelevant_argument): New rule, to prohibit a test script from calling print_env_ for a program not actually used by that test. * tests/chown/basic: s/\(print_ver_\) chgrp/\1 chown/ * tests/cp/acl: s/\(print_ver_\) mv/\1 cp/ * tests/cp/capability: s/\(print_ver_\) ls/\1 cp/ * tests/cp/cp-parents: s/(print_ver_\) mv/\1 cp/ * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle: s/(print_ver_\) rm/\1 du/ * tests/misc/wc-parallel: s/(print_ver_\) md5sum/\1 wc/
2012-08-21du: handle bind-mounted directory cycles gracefullyOndrej Oprala
Before this change, a directory cycle induced by a bind mount would be treated as a fatal error, i.e., probable disk corruption. However, such cycles are relatively common, and can be detected efficiently, so now du emits a descriptive warning and arranges to exit nonzero. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * src/du.c: Include "mountlist.h". (di_mnt): New global set. (di_files): Rename global from di_set, now that there are two. (fill_mount_table): New function. (hash_ins): Add DI_SET parameter. (process_file): Look up each dir dev/ino pair in the new set. (main): Allocate, initialize, and free the new set. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle: Add a test for the fix. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * THANKS.in: Update. This implements the proposal in http://bugs.gnu.org/11844. Originally reported in http://bugs.debian.org/563254 by Alan Jenkins and more recently as http://bugzilla.redhat.com/836557 Improved by: Jim Meyering
2012-08-20maint: post-release administriviaJim Meyering
* NEWS: Add header line for next release. * .prev-version: Record previous version. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
2012-08-20version 8.19Jim Meyering
* NEWS: Record release date.
2012-08-19tests: port df/no-mtab-status to SolarisPaul Eggert
* tests/df/no-mtab-status: Include <mntent.h> in test program, so that the getmntent hack compilation fails on Solaris, as it should, since it's not compatible with Solaris. Reported by Stefano Lattarini in <http://bugs.gnu.org/12225>.
2012-08-19tests: avoid split/filter test failure on very low-mem systemJim Meyering
* tests/split/filter: Use xz -1 when compressing, to minimize memory usage. Otherwise, xz could fail due to insufficient virtual memory on a system with very little free memory.
