 ==================================================================
 NEWS

 * New features added

   - In the testsuite summary, the "for $(PACKAGE_STRING)" suffix
     can be overridden with the AM_TESTSUITE_SUMMARY_HEADER variable.

 * Bugs fixed

   - Python 3.10 version number no longer considered to be 3.1.

   - Broken links in manual fixed or removed, and new script
     contrib/checklinkx (a small modification of W3C checklink) added,
     with accompany target checklinkx to recheck urls.

   - install-exec target depends on $(BUILT_SOURCES).

   - valac argument matching more precise, to avoid garbage in DIST_COMMON.

   - Support for Vala in VPATH builds fixed so that both freshly-generated
 and
     distributed C files work, and operation is more reliable with or
 without
     an installed valac.

   - Dejagnu doesn't break on directories containing spaces.

 * Distribution

   - new variable AM_DISTCHECK_DVI_TARGET, to allow overriding the
     "make dvi" that is done as part of distcheck.

 * Miscellaneous changes

   - install-sh tweaks:
     . new option -p to preserve mtime, i.e., invoke cp -p.
     . new option -S SUFFIX to attempt backup files using SUFFIX.
     . no longer unconditionally uses -f when rm is overridden by RMPROG.
     . does not chown existing directories.

   - Removed function up_to_date_p in lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm.
     We believe this function is completely unused.

   - Support for in-tree Vala libraries improved.
