It seemed odd to me that the buildd's do not seem to have a problem. On investigation, if one does an apt-get source make, ./config/texinfo.tex is still there: merely removing it from my working tree does not remove it from the unpacked, patched source tree, since diff merely ignores file deletions. I worked for me, since the file was actually gone from my working dir; it worked on buildd's, since they never remake the arch independent parts. So, now we aggressively delete ./config/texinfo.tex all through the build and clean process.

In the new version, this has been fixed for real, as opposed to just having a workaround. closes: Bug#160174 * depend on coreutils rather than the deprecated fileutils closes: Bug#161449 * The new release also fixes this bug. closes: Bug#144306, Bug#80783 * A new feature exists: order-only prerequisites. These prerequisites affect the order in which targets are built, but they do not impact the rebuild/no-rebuild decision of their dependents. That is to say, they allow you to require target B be built before target A, without requiring that target A will always be rebuilt if target B is updated. Patch for this feature provided by Greg McGary . * For compatibility with SysV make, GNU make now supports the peculiar syntax $$@, $$(@D), and $$(@F) in the prerequisites list of a rule. This syntax is only valid within explicit and static pattern rules: it cannot be used in implicit (suffix or pattern) rules. Edouard G. Parmelan provided a patch implementing this feature; however, I decided to implement it in a different way. * The argument to the "ifdef" conditional is now expanded before it's tested, so it can be a constructed variable name. Similarly, the arguments to "export" (when not used in a variable definition context) and "unexport" are also now expanded. * A new function is defined: $(value ...). The argument to this function is the _name_ of a variable. The result of the function is the value of the variable, without having been expanded. * A new function is defined: $(eval ...). The arguments to this function should expand to makefile commands, which will then be evaluated as if they had appeared in the makefile. In combination with define/endef multiline variable definitions this is an extremely powerful capability. The $(value ...) function is also sometimes useful here. * A new built-in variable is defined, $(MAKEFILE_LIST). It contains a list of each makefile GNU make has read, or started to read, in the order in which they were encountered. So, the last filename in the list when a makefile is just being read (before any includes) is the name of the current makefile. * A new built-in variable is defined: $(.VARIABLES). When it is expanded it returns a complete list of variable names defined by all makefiles at that moment. * A new command-line option is defined, -B or --always-make. If specified GNU make will consider all targets out-of-date even if they would otherwise not be. * The arguments to $(call ...) functions were being stored in $1, $2, etc. as recursive variables, even though they are fully expanded before assignment. This means that escaped dollar signs ($$ etc.) were not behaving properly. Now the arguments are stored as simple variables. This may mean that if you added extra escaping to your $(call ...) function arguments you will need to undo it now. * The variable invoked by $(call ...) can now be recursive: unlike other variables it can reference itself and this will not produce an error when it is used as the first argument to $(call ...) (but only then). * New pseudo-target .LOW_RESOLUTION_TIME, superseding the configure option --disable-nsec-timestamps. You might need this if your build process depends on tools like "cp -p" preserving time stamps, since "cp -p" (right now) doesn't preserve the subsecond portion of a time stamp. * Updated translations for French, Galician, German, Japanese, Korean, and Russian. New translations for Croatian, Danish, Hebrew, and Turkish. * Updated internationalization support to Gettext 0.11.5. GNU make now uses Gettext's "external" feature, and does not include any internationalization code itself. Configure will search your system for an existing implementation of GNU Gettext (only GNU Gettext is acceptable) and use it if it exists. If not, NLS will be disabled. See ABOUT-NLS for more information. * Updated to autoconf 2.54 and automake 1.7. Users should not be impacted. -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 25 Oct 2002 15:34:16 -0500 make (3.79.1-15) unstable; urgency=low * use which instead of command -v * Removed the /usr/doc symlinks.

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. (an alternate solution is in upstream). closes: Bug#72414 -- Manoj Srivastava Tue, 30 Jan 2001 11:25:08 -0600 make (3.79.1-1.potato.1) stable; urgency=low * This is an update for potato. There are no changes made since the update for woody 45 days ago. The old make did not honour the MAKEFILES variable, this closes: Bug#71261 * I have heard rimours that the old make did not correctly build libc either, and one needs this version. I can't say for sure, since no bug was ever filed. -- Manoj Srivastava Mon, 11 Sep 2000 14:04:10 -0500 make (3.79.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release. closes: Bug#67862 * .SECONDARY with no prerequisites now prevents any target from being removed because make thinks it's an intermediate file, not just those listed in the makefile. * New configure option --disable-nsec-timestamps will keep make from using sub-second timestamps on systems which support it. 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. Closes: #67568. -- Adam Heath Fri, 21 Jul 2000 18:43:17 -0500 make (3.79-2) unstable; urgency=low * Hmm. 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. The bug report does not seem to have made its way into the bts yet. -- Manoj Srivastava Fri, 11 Feb 2000 18:07:20 -0600 make (3.78.1-5) frozen unstable; urgency=low * The postinst was vulnerable to being affected by symlinks (if, for some reason, the prerm failed). 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). Thaks go to Richard B. Kreckel for spotting the bug, and to Andreas Jaeger and Joel Klecker for the solution.

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.

This fixed Bug#1149 * Added architecture header in control * added section header * merged the package revision header into the revision header. * cleaned up the debian.rules. * added the Changelog. * Fixed the description field not to include multiple contiguous spaces -- Manoj Srivastava
