I have just finished what I planned to do, mainly: - More tests. See the 'TESTS' file in the top-directory for the details. - Commit patches reported by Ingo on the 1st automake branch. - Cherry pick commit 694305d77b3dccb62921fccf7d403a8852a82742 from master, because it fixes the build on Mac OS. - Several bug fixes/re-implementation. - A little draft documentation on how to use automake in the groff project (not automatically generated yet, I attach it). With commit a88127a4fecb307f26f2e217213d4a90e300d220 the automake2 branch is now ready for more testing from other members of the list. Quick start: git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/groff.git git checkout automake2 ./bootstrap mkdir build cd build ../configure make -j Then you can check in the TESTS file for the other targets. Please note that compared to the current build system: - There are 2 new targets, 'make check' and 'make distcheck' - Parallel build is supported. This branch was created from master 985b1eacaf24981f29bb4a5d53b8961dbafcdfef, and need to be rebased before merging it into master. I'll start to check this locally but will proceed only when the branch is ready. Regards, -- Bertrand Garrigues
