Theere is a workaround to this problem: (put the "include b.mak" _inside_ of the a.mak file, so that GNU make won't see it until after it includes a.mak, whereupon it will also know how to build b.mak). closes: Bug#62051 -- Manoj Srivastava Sat, 26 Jan 2002 00:01:26 -0600 make (3.79.1-11) unstable; urgency=low * Add a build dependency on texinfo, without which info files were not being provided on all architectures. closes: Bug#124165 * When make gets ready to build a target, it evaluates all commands needed to build that target at once, before the first line is invoked. Thus the behaviour displayed is not a bug closes: Bug#119663 * All variable and function expansion for targets and prerequisite lists occurs when the makefile is read in, well before any sort of pattern expansion occurs; so these functions are operating on the static string "%", not the string it will expand to after pattern matching. closes: Bug#110728 -- Manoj Srivastava Sun, 6 Jan 2002 01:45:51 -0600 make (3.79.1-10) unstable; urgency=low * Acknowledgement of NMU's closes: Bug#107943, Bug#107944, Bug#108632 * Don't drag in librt and libpthread unless we need to. closes: Bug#107704 * Make sure the documentation is included in the package. closes: Bug#109080 -- Manoj Srivastava Sun, 19 Aug 2001 23:44:55 -0500 make (3.79.1-9.2) unstable; urgency=low * NMU * Move gettext to Build-Depends (instead of -Indep).

That opens up /dev/kmem and /dev/mem to make processes in a mistaken assumption that one needs to be setgid kmem to read loadaverages on linux. This version has been built with a modified autoconf not to do that, and as a precaution does not install make setgid kmem. * Make sure the binary is stripped as per lintian requirements. -- Manoj Srivastava Tue, 30 Jan 2001 15:16:49 -0600 make (3.79.1-2) unstable; urgency=low * Added a CRLF patch that is already in make CVS, and has recieved extensive testing, and fixes an issue with reading files. * Added the patch that fixes a polish grammar issue with the informational messages make emits.

If your build process depends on proper timestamp-preserving behavior of tools like "cp -p" you might need this option, since "cp -p" (right now) doesn't preserve the sub-second portion of the timestamp. * Folded Adam Heath's fix for $(shell). closes: #67568 -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 28 Jul 2000 16:15:10 -0500 make (3.79-2.1) unstable; urgency=low * Set the first byte of buffer to 0, in func_shell.

Setting the install prefix to a relative value does not work; the locale files were not installed in debian/tmp/usr/share/locale, but locallyinto i18n/debian/tmp/usr/share/locale. This has been fixed now. closes: Bug#66237 -- Manoj Srivastava Wed, 12 Jul 2000 10:05:53 -0500 make (3.79-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release, adds fixes already present in Debian. This closes: Bug#62619 changes are: * GNU make optionally supports internationalization and locales via the GNU gettext (or local gettext if suitable) package. See the ABOUT-NLS file for more information on configuring GNU make for NLS. * Previously, GNU make quoted variables such as MAKEFLAGS and MAKEOVERRIDES for proper parsing by the shell. This allowed them to be used within make build scripts. However, using them there is not proper behavior: they are meant to be passed to subshells via the environment. Unfortunately the values were not quoted properly to be passed through the environment. This meant that make didn't properly pass some types of command line values to submakes. With this version we change that behavior: now these variables are quoted properly for passing through the environment, which is the correct way to do it. If you previously used these variables explicitly within a make rule you may need to re-examine your use for correctness given this change. * A new psuedo-target .NOTPARALLEL is available. If defined, the current makefile is run serially regardless of the value of -j. However, submakes are still eligible for parallel execution. * The --debug option has changed: it now allows optional flags controlling the amount and type of debugging output. By default only a minimal amount information is generated, displaying the names of "normal" targets (not makefiles) were deemed out of date and in need of being rebuilt. Note that the -d option behaves as before: it takes no arguments and all debugging information is generated. * The `-p' (print database) output now includes filename and linenumber information for variable definitions, to help debugging. * The wordlist function no longer reverses its arguments if the "start" value is greater than the "end" value. If that's true, nothing is returned. * Hartmut Becker provided many updates for the VMS port of GNU make. See the readme.vms file for more details. -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 28 Apr 2000 17:37:53 -0500 make (3.78.1-8) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Use absolute links when related links would not work, for the /usr/doc/ symlink. * Added a dependency on fileutiles >=4.0, since the package would fail to install with older fileutils. -- Manoj Srivastava Tue, 28 Mar 2000 01:58:05 -0600 make (3.78.1-7) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Fixed security fix to match upstream changes. Fixed an upgrade bug when /usr/doc happens to be a symlink, and does not point to /usr/share/doc. A couple of people were bitten by this. -- Manoj Srivastava Mon, 28 Feb 2000 22:27:05 -0600 make (3.78.1-6) frozen unstable; urgency=high * Use mkstemp where available. This fixes a security bug in make.

This has happended for latex2html; and created a grave bug. * There was a bug in the postinst in a case statement, that caused installation to fail for certain situations. * Also fixed an lintian warning -- Manoj Srivastava Tue, 8 Feb 2000 15:46:36 -0600 make (3.78.1-4) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Added a glibc fix to dir.c (the bug expressed itself as a wildards bug).

Reapplied patch. This should now not create a spurious dependency on libelfg0 even if the gremlins cause automake to be run to recreate configure. closes: BUG#29135 -- Manoj Srivastava Sat, 7 Nov 1998 23:29:40 -0600 make (3.77-3) frozen unstable; urgency=high * Appled more patches to fix the glob problem with the new glibc. patch provided by Christopher C Chimelis . closes: BUG#28723, BUG#28724 -- Manoj Srivastava Tue, 3 Nov 1998 17:47:55 -0600 make (3.77-2) unstable; urgency=low * Applied patch to correct glob problems that make has with glibc 2.0.9x. I had to additionally patch aclocal.m4 in ./glob/ in order to compile. Seems to work OK on i386. closes: BUG#26785 * Removed icon=none from the menuentry for the documentation. This saitsfies lintian. -- Manoj Srivastava Wed, 23 Sep 1998 14:32:08 -0500 make (3.77-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. Excerpted changes: * Implement BSD make's "?=" variable assignment operator. The variable is assigned the specified value only if that variable is not already defined. * Make defines a new variable, "CURDIR", to contain the current working directory (after the -C option, if any, has been processed). Modifying this variable has no effect on the operation of make. * Make defines a new default RCS rule, for new-style master file storage: ``% :: RCS/%'' (note no ``,v'' suffix). Make defines new default rules for DOS-style C++ file naming conventions, with ``.cpp'' suffixes. All the same rules as for ``.cc'' and ``.C'' suffixes are provided, along with LINK.cpp and COMPILE.cpp macros (which default to the same value as LINK.cc and COMPILE.cc). Note CPPFLAGS is still C preprocessor flags! You should use CXXFLAGS to change C++ compiler flags. * A new feature, "target-specific variable values", has been added. This is a large change so please see the appropriate sections of the manual for full details. Briefly, syntax like this: TARGET: VARIABLE = VALUE defines VARIABLE as VALUE within the context of TARGET. This is similar to SunOS make's "TARGET := VARIABLE = VALUE" feature. Note that the assignment may be of any type, not just recursive, and that the override keyword is available. COMPATIBILITY: This new syntax means that if you have any rules where the first or second dependency has an equal sign (=) in its name, you'll have to escape them with a backslash: "foo : bar\=baz". Further, if you have any dependencies which already contain "\=", you'll have to escape both of them: "foo : bar\\\=baz". * A new appendix listing the most common error and warning messages generated by GNU make, with some explanation, has been added to the GNU make User's Manual. * Updates to the GNU make Customs library support (see README.customs). * Updates to the Windows 95/NT port from Rob Tulloh (see README.W32), and to the DOS port from Eli Zaretski (see README.DOS). -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 31 Jul 1998 10:30:43 -0500 make (3.76.1-8) unstable; urgency=low * Move info page removal to prerm as per policy. -- Manoj Srivastava Wed, 25 Feb 1998 17:38:10 -0600 make (3.76.1-7) unstable; urgency=low * Mentioned the fact that the GPL is available on the filesystem in the copyright file. -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 13 Feb 1998 13:16:58 -0600 make (3.76.1-6) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed the old fsf version in the copyright file. * Read the new policy document. I think make complies with 2.4.0.0, so it has been upgraded. * That fixes all the problems reported by lintian. -- Manoj Srivastava Mon, 9 Feb 1998 13:07:56 -0600 make (3.76.1-5) unstable; urgency=low * Give a changed info dir descriotion, so that a simple "info make" does the right thing. closes:Bug#14879. -- Manoj Srivastava Sun, 16 Nov 1997 00:50:22 -0600 make (3.76.1-4) unstable; urgency=low * Make sure the copyright file is not compressed. closes:Bug#14426,Bug#14427 -- Manoj Srivastava Wed, 5 Nov 1997 11:53:03 -0600 make (3.76.1-3) unstable; urgency=low * With Stellar help from Stephen Zander , changed the aclocal.m4 file (already present in the upstream sources) to override the function that checks for libelf. This should now not create a spurious dependency on libelfg0 even if the gremlins cause automake to be run to recreate configure. -- Manoj Srivastava Wed, 29 Oct 1997 14:22:37 -0600 make (3.76.1-2) unstable; urgency=low * Removed dependency on libelf by convincinf configure that unlike Solaris, Linux does not need an explicit -lelf (again). -- Manoj Srivastava Sat, 25 Oct 1997 02:24:13 -0500 make (3.76.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * Small (but serious) bug fix. main.c (main): Arg count should be int, not char! Major braino. * changes to upstream Makefiles -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 3 Oct 1997 11:53:45 -0500 make (3.76-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream update. Changes: * GNU make now uses automake to control Makefile.in generation. This should make it more consistent with the GNU standards. * VPATH functionality has been changed to incorporate the VPATH+ patch, previously maintained by Paul Smith . See the manual. * Make defines a new variable, `MAKECMDGOALS', to contain the goals that were specified on the command line, if any. Modifying this variable has no effect on the operation of make. * A new function, `$(wordlist S,E,TEXT)', is available: it returns a list of words from number S to number E (inclusive) of TEXT. * Instead of an error, detection of future modification times gives a warning and continues. The warning is repeated just before GNU make exits, so it is less likely to be lost. * Fix the $(basename) and $(suffix) functions so they only operate on the last filename, not the entire string: Command Old Result New Result ------- ---------- ---------- $(basename a.b) a a $(basename a.b/c) a a.b/c $(suffix a.b) b b $(suffix a.b/c) b/c * The $(strip) function now removes newlines as well as TABs and spaces. * The $(shell) function now changes CRLF (\r\n) pairs to a space as well as newlines (\n). * Updates to the Windows 95/NT port from Rob Tulloh (see README.W32). * Eli Zaretskii has updated the port to 32-bit protected mode on MSDOS and MS-Windows, building with the DJGPP v2 port of GNU C/C++ compiler and utilities. See README.DOS for details, and direct all questions concerning this port to Eli Zaretskii or DJ Delorie . * John W. Eaton has updated the VMS port to support libraries and VPATH. * Make sure that the manual pages are installed. -- Manoj Srivastava Tue, 16 Sep 1997 23:23:27 -0500 make (3.75-6) unstable; urgency=low * Built with libc6 -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 16 May 1997 11:07:17 -0500 make (3.75-5) unstable; urgency=low * Improved postinst/postrm scripts * Added menu entry for the HTML files provided by make-doc * Added documentation package make-doc -- Manoj Srivastava Wed, 7 May 1997 18:17:47 -0501 make (3.75-4) unstable; urgency=low * Removed HTML files because of size considerations.
