      * Bug fix: "typo in make.1", thanks to LI Daobing (Closes: #375984).
      * Bug fix: "Please suggest make-doc", thanks to Moritz Muehlenhoff
                                                        (Closes: #362297).

  • make-dfsg (3.81-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "Please suggest make-doc", thanks to Moritz Muehlenhoff
                                                                 (Closes: #362297).
    
    make-dfsg (3.81-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release
    
    make-dfsg (3.80+3.81.rc2-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release candidate.
      * Bug fix: "Make always recompiles everything in the Linux Kernel.",
        thanks to Neil Brown. This is really a bug in the kernel build system,
        not make. However, this release defers the change so as not to trigger
        the bug.                                      (Closes: #356552, #356630).
                                          
    
    make (3.80+3.81.rc1-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release candidate.
      * Bug fix: "make: the '-W <file>' option used with VPATH does not work
        correctly", thanks to Jeff Sheinberg                  (Closes: #107624).
      * Bug fix: "make shows incorrect line number in error report", thanks to
        Nikita V. Youshchenko                                 (Closes: #274840).
      * Bug fix: "make: [doc] Implicit Rules: C++", thanks to LI Daobing
                                                              (Closes: #335044).
    
    make (3.80+3.81.b4-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream pre release
      * Bug fix: "FTBFS due to timestamp skews", thanks to Loïc Minier
        Use MAINTAINER_MODE instead.                        (Closes: #343069).
      * Bug fix: "make: Missing information about backward-incompatibility",
        thanks to Vincent Lefevre. As Ken Bloom pointed out, the correct
        section is command execution.                        (Closes: #343088).
      * Since there is a new texinfo.tex we use now, no longer remove it,
        since autoreconf shall fail if that file is missing.
    
    make (3.80+3.81.b3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream CVS HEAD (we are in a pre-release mode.
      * Bug fix: "make: new version breaks cdbs", thanks to Aurelien Jarno
                                                             (Closes: #342879).
    
    make (3.80+3.81.b3-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream pre-release.
      * Bug fix: "make: continued command lines are not passed to the shell
        correctly", thanks to Jeff Sheinberg. This has been fixed in this release.
        (http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=1332)  (Closes: #59311).
      * Bug fix: "make: bogus output of make -np", thanks to P�sztorSzil�rd I
        believe this bug is the result of a known, rare, and already-fixed
        problem with the parser that occurs if a line is exactly the right
        length.                                                      (Closes: #117566).
      * Bug fix: "make segfault with -t", thanks to Philipp Meier
        (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=1418)
                                                                     (Closes: #279900).
      * Bug fix: "make -f '' dumps core", thanks to Peter Maydell    (Closes: #164165).
      * Bug fix: "make: documentation of VPATH does not match behavior",
        thanks to Matthew Swift                                       (Closes: #176639).
    
    make (3.80-12) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "FTBFS: DVI file cannot be opened", thanks to Matt Kraai. 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.                                          (Closes: #334953).
    
    make (3.80-11) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "make: FTBFS with teTeX-3.0", thanks to Frank Küster. Remove
        the offending file (though not just in the clean target) (Closes: #322353).
    
    make (3.80-10) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "FTBFS: Cannot find HTML documentation", thanks to Matt Kraai
                                                               (Closes: #317859).
      * Bug fix: "make: [INTL:de] German PO file corrections", thanks to Jens
        Seidel                                                 (Closes: #313988).
      * Bug fix: "make: broken reference in info documentation", thanks to
        Jason McCarty                                          (Closes: #286766).
      * Bug fix: "make: eval function within 'ifeq... else... endif' causes
        error", thanks to François Duranleau                   (Closes: #296482).
    
    make (3.80-9) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "make: reads uninitialized memory", thanks to Steinar
        H. Gunderson                                    (Closes: #260468).
      * Bug fix: "XSI:ism in debian-scripts", thanks to David Weinehall
                                                        (Closes: #257578).
    
    make (3.80-8) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "make: Explanations file cut off on right", thanks to Ross
        Boylan                                             (Closes: #253357).
      * Removed the old dwww/menu entry. Now we use the preferred doc-base
        registration method.
    
    make (3.80-7) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Bug fix: "make: some options missing from manpage", thanks to Martin
        Pool. This also was previously raised in #233474. I added a note to
        the man page stating that the list of options is a partial list, and
        pointed to the info docs for an authoritative list. (Closes: #243845).
      * Bug fix: "make: German l10n: Updating po/de.po", thanks to Florian
        Ernst                                               (Closes: #244119).
    
    make (3.80-6) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * make_3.80-5(ia64/unstable): FTBFS: missing build-depends?, Actually,
        no. I got bitten by the non support of build-deps-indep again. I have
        now duplicated the indep dependencies into build depends, so this
        should now work. 
      * Added an explanation for the behaviour of make, which demonstrates
        that the dry-run of double colon rules and the behaviour of multi
        target rules is expected behaviour. 
      * Bug fix: "make: strange behavior with multi-target rules", thanks to
        Ian Zimmerman. Not a bug, as documented in the explanations file
        referred to above.                                  (Closes: #218367).
      * Bug fix: "dry-run of double-colon rules?", thanks to Fumitoshi UKAI
        Not a bug, as documented in the explanations file referred to above.
                                                           (Closes: #214592).
    
    make (3.80-5) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Moved to the new build system, and arch.
      * Updated to the latest policy version
      * Bug fix: "make uses a way old Polish translation", thanks to Michał
        Politowski. I actually updated a whole set of .po files from the
        translation project.                                (Closes: #229620).
    
    make (3.80-4) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Add AM_MAINTAINER_MODE to config.in, and regenerate all autoconf
        related files.
      * Mention that the documentation is distributed under the GFDL.
    
    make (3.80-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Fixed usage of chown root.root in the rules files.
      * Updates all the auto* files with the latest version of the tool
        chain. It should now work with the newest versions. Removed automake
        as build a dependency. Thanks to Santiago Vila <email address hidden> for
        noticing this, and providing a patch, though the patch was not used
        for this version.  closes: Bug#210881
    
    make (3.80-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * "*** virtual memory exhausted" fixed in mainline CVS. Backported
        thanks to Samium Gromoff. The fix involves saving and restoring
        varible buffer contexts around eval'd code.              closes: Bug#197886
    
    make (3.80-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream version with various bugs fixed.
      * This bug was forwarded back to make, but make had already been
        fixed. 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 <email address hidden>.
    
        * 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  <email address hidden> 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.
    
    make (3.79.1-15) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * use which instead of command -v
      * Removed the /usr/doc symlinks. Moved to the new cflag and optimization
        rules. Bumped the standards version
      * Hack Makefile.in not to run the automake/aclocal.autoheader/autoconf
        junk, since they suddenly changed the interface.
    
    make (3.79.1-14) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Include all the docs in the make-doc package             closes: Bug#144195
    
    make (3.79.1-13) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Incorporate a patch from "Paul D. Smith" <email address hidden> that fixes
        the problem in expansion of target specific variables.   closes: Bug#132646
    
    make (3.79.1-12) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Fixed lintian warnings. 
      * added upstream location to the description.
      * The upstream author has clarified that the behaviour described is not
        a bug, but a consciously chosen tone. 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 
    
    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
    
    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
    
    make (3.79.1-9.2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * NMU
      * Move gettext to Build-Depends (instead of -Indep).  Closes: #108632.
    
    make (3.79.1-9.1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Non maintainer upload on behalf of Manoj.
      * Added gettext to duild-depends.
    
    make (3.79.1-9) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * The french translation of this application translates 'free software'
        into 'logiciel gratuit' instead of 'logiciel libre'.     closes: Bug#106720
    
    make (3.79.1-8) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * s/#@/$@@/ in the texinfo file.                           closes: Bug#104130
    
    make (3.79.1-7) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Updated config.sub/config.gues from a recent version. This 
        closes: Bug#99122
    
    make (3.79.1-6) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Added a fix from "Paul D. Smith" <email address hidden> that fixes a problem
        with make not echoing commands correctly. closes: Bug#72802
    
    make (3.79.1-5) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * fixed command execution in make. closes: Bug#89310
    
    make (3.79.1-4) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * GNgngngng. The last upload is broken, thanks to the autoconf
        breakage. This also breaks fakeroot, since make tries to add/drop seteuid
        priviledges when it shouldn't. closes: #84201
        closes: Bug#84184, Bug#84182, Bug#84185, Bug#84179, Bug#84198 
    
    make (3.79.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * A bug in autoconf made make setgid kmem. 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. 
    
    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
    
    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. 
    
    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
    
    make (3.79-2.1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Set the first byte of buffer to 0, in func_shell.  Closes: #67568.
    
    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
    
    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.
    
    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.
    
    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.
    
    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. 
    
    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
    
    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.  Forwarded fix upstream.
    
    make (3.78.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Release to fold in NMU fixed bugs. closes: Bug#47686, #47362, #49137, #49381
      * Changed the root check to look for uid 0, not the username root (think
        sashroot or toor) 
    
    make (3.78.1-1.1) unstable; urgency=low
    
       * Non maintainer upload.
       * Changed debian/docentry to point to /usr/share/doc instead of
         /usr/doc (closes: #47686, #47362, #49137, #49381).
      
    
    make (3.78.1-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Updated to the latest version. closes: Bug#46902
      * New upstream deleted mention of where to find info files (/usr/info/
        or /usr/share/info). closes: Bug#49886
      * Fix location where the man page is installed. closes: Bug#47736
    
    make (3.78.1-1.1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Non maintainer upload.
      * Changed debian/docentry to point to /usr/share/doc instead of 
        /usr/doc (closes: #47686, #47362, #49137, #49381).
    
    make (3.78.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * New upstream release, which fixes a number of problems.
      * Moved to the FHS
    
    make (3.77-7) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Added patch from the author to correct ?= behaviour. closes: 37526
    
    make (3.77-6) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Added support fro doc base. closes: Bug#31184
      * Upgraded all maintainer scripts to my latest standards
      * Upgraded to the latest standards version (no changes were required)
    
    make (3.77-5) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Fixed a minor typo in documentation. fixes: BUG#31506
    
    make (3.77-4) frozen unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Somehow, aclocal.m4 got unpatched, and created a dependency on
        libelf. 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
    
    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 <email address hidden>. 
        closes: BUG#28723, BUG#28724
    
    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.
    
    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).
    
    make (3.76.1-8) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Move info page removal to prerm as per policy.
    
    make (3.76.1-7) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Mentioned the fact that the GPL is available on the filesystem in the
        copyright file.
    
    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.
    
    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.
    
    make (3.76.1-4) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Make sure the copyright file is not compressed. 
        closes:Bug#14426,Bug#14427 
    
    make (3.76.1-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * With Stellar help from Stephen Zander <email address hidden>, 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. 
    
    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).
    
    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
    
    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 <email address hidden>.  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                    <empty>
           * 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 <email address hidden> or DJ
             Delorie <email address hidden>.
           * John W. Eaton has updated the VMS port to support libraries and VPATH.
      * Make sure that the manual pages are installed.
    
    make (3.75-6) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Built with libc6
    
    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
    
    make (3.75-4) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Removed HTML files because of size considerations. This fixes Bug#7867.
    
    make (3.75-3) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Added more documents to the /usr/doc/make directory.
      * Added dww index
      * Added HTML documentation to /usr/doc/make
      * Removed dependency on libelf by convincinf configure that unlike
        Solaris, Linux does not need an explicit -lelf. This fixes Bug#7807
    
    make (3.75-2) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Moved to standards version 2.1.2.2
      * Removed extra root checks
      * Added error messages to failed root check
    
    make (3.75-1) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Use dpkg-shlibdep instead of hardcoding the dependency in the control
        file.
    
    make (3.75-0) unstable; urgency=low
    
      * Changed to the new format.
      * New upstream version
      
    
    make (3.74-12) unstable; urgency=low
      * Added patch to job.c to allow make to exec scripts which do not
        have the #! magic as the first line.  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
