Hello Jim,
your report mentions three problems:
1) The value of LIBOBJS can get very long.
I think the right fix here is to change this to multiline substitution:
LIBOBJS = ${LIBOBJDIR}backupfile$U.o \
${LIBOBJDIR}basename$U.o \
...
Autoconf is readu for multiline substitutions, thanks to Dan Manthey,
but Automake is not. I'll start a discussion on the Automake list soon.
2) LTLIBOBJS might get very long.
I think Automake should generate this:
LTLIBOBJS = $(LIBOBJS:@[EMAIL PROTECTED])
Again, I hope to submit a patch to Automake-patches soon.
3) am__DEPENDENCIES_1 = @LIBOBJS@
I think that Automake should generate $(LIBOBJS) here.
I have a patch, the testsuite is running. If it succeeds, I'll submit
the patch later today.
Finally, let me append a minor comment which is almost unrelated:
coreutils-5.90/lib/Makefile.am contains line:
libcoreutils_a_DEPENDENCIES = $(libcoreutils_a_LIBADD)
I think this line should be deleted; Automake generates an equivalent one.
Have a nice day,
Stepan
