We interrupt your regularly scheduled posts with an important news flash:
I am proud to present patch release 1 from the automake-1.4 maintenance
branch. The main purpose of this release is to have a stable automake which
is compatible with the latest stable libtool. It is available now from:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-1.4-p1.tar.gz
...and from all up to date GNU mirror sites. Or else directly from anonymous
CVS using the tag `Release-1-4-p1'.
The changes in this release since version 1.4 consist of the following
patches backported from the CVS trunk:
* This version works with the latest libtool release (1.4) and
cvs snapshots from the libtool multi-language-branch as well
as the libtool-1.3.x releases.
* The GNITS standard has been extended to allow fork identifiers
in release numbers. This release of automake has a fork identifier
of `p1' for instance.
* 'automake --add-missing --copy' no longer generated bogus
error messages if the missing files were successfully copied.
* Directories listed in EXTRA_DIST are now correctly included
in the generated distribution tarball.
* Installed info files are correctly removed by `make uninstall'.
Please download, compile, install and enjoy. We now return you to your
regular programming...
Cheers,
Gary.
