We want AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS in Makefile.in to be the combination of
configure.ac and Makefile.am options. Define a new variable owner
for this, because we need to override the Makefile.am value
unconditionally and never emit warnings.

Hi Stefano,
Hi Paolo, and thanks for the patches.
these patches add back support for obsolete dist-* options, by parsing
the AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS variable and distilling AM_DIST_FORMATS out of it.
The first two patches are required for this. They

Since I still have some gripes with the preparatory [PATCH 1/2], I'm
thinking about reworking this patch to make is independent from that.
Find my ideas below. Do you think they would be a good move? If
yes, would you mind

Hi Paolo.
After reading this patch carefully, I realize the issue is more complicated
and tricky than it appeared at first. To avoid getting stuck here, I think
we should re-work your other patch to be independent from this one (it can
be done quite easily, see my reply to that patch). Once

It depends. A rule of thumb is that, when Automake *must* process something

True, but in the make dist case, automake has otherwise no business in

But IMHO it makes sense to keep the need/ability to recognize those options

It is a bit ugly that _process_option_list has to know about the
no-dist-gzip option in order to give a warning. This way, I can give a
superior error message if somebody specifies no-dist-xz.

Looking at GNU Smalltalk, I see:

Turns out this has already been done for ages (at least since 2003).
I'll just remove support for it in Automake 1.13. See the patch
below.
OK?

This would require a new category of warnings that are are unconditionally
