Changelog for make-4.4.1-3.152.x86_64.rpm :

* Thu Apr 06 2023 fcrozatAATTsuse.com- Update license tag, tarball contains GPL-3.0-or-later code.
* Mon Feb 27 2023 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to make 4.4.1
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! In previous releases it was not well-defined when updates to MAKEFLAGS made inside a makefile would be visible. This release ensures they are visible immediately, even when invoking $(shell ...) functions.
* New feature: Parallel builds of archives Previously it was not possible to use parallel builds with archives. It is still not possible using the built-in rules, however you can now override the built-in rules with a slightly different set of rules and use parallel builds with archive creation.
* Previously target-specific variables would inherit their \"export\" capability from parent target-specific variables even if they were marked private. Now private parent target-specific variables have no affect.- sigpipe-fatal.patch: removed
* Mon Nov 21 2022 schwabAATTsuse.de- reset-sigpipe.patch: Removed- sigpipe-fatal.patch: Handle SIGPIPE as a fatal signal
* Wed Nov 02 2022 schwabAATTsuse.de- reset-sigpipe.patch: Reset SIGPIPE in children
* Mon Oct 31 2022 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to make 4.4
* WARNING: Future backward-incompatibility! In the NEXT release of GNU Make, pattern rules will implement the same behavior change for multiple targets as explicit grouped targets
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! GNU Make now uses temporary files in more situations than previous releases.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Previously each target in a explicit grouped target rule was considered individually: if the targets needed by the build were not out of date the recipe was not run even if other targets in the group were out of date. Now if any of the grouped targets are needed by the build, then if any of the grouped targets are out of date the recipe is run and all targets in the group are considered updated.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Previously if --no-print-directory was seen anywhere in the environment or command line it would take precedence over any --print-directory. Now, the last setting of directory printing options seen will be used, so a command line such as \"--no-print-directory -w\" _will_ show directory entry/exits.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Previously the order in which makefiles were remade was not explicitly stated, but it was (roughly) the inverse of the order in which they were processed by make. In this release, the order in which makefiles are rebuilt is the same order in which make processed them, and this is defined to be true in the GNU Make manual.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Previously only simple (one-letter) options were added to the MAKEFLAGS variable that was visible while parsing makefiles. Now, all options are available in MAKEFLAGS. If you want to check MAKEFLAGS for a one-letter option, expanding \"$(firstword -$(MAKEFLAGS))\" is a reliable way to return the set of one-letter options which can be examined via findstring, etc.
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Previously makefile variables marked as export were not exported to commands started by the $(shell ...) function. Now, all exported variables are exported to $(shell ...). If this leads to recursion during expansion, then for backward-compatibility the value from the original environment is used. To detect this change search for \'shell-export\' in the .FEATURES variable.
* WARNING: New build requirement GNU Make utilizes facilities from GNU Gnulib: Gnulib requires certain C99 features in the C compiler and so these features are required by GNU Make: https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/C99-features-assumed.html The configure script should verify the compiler has these features.
* New feature: The .WAIT special target If the .WAIT target appears between two prerequisites of a target, then GNU Make will wait for all of the targets to the left of .WAIT in the list to complete before starting any of the targets to the right of .WAIT.
* New feature: .NOTPARALLEL accepts prerequisites If the .NOTPARALLEL special target has prerequisites then all prerequisites of those targets will be run serially (as if .WAIT was specified between each prerequisite).
* New feature: The .NOTINTERMEDIATE special target .NOTINTERMEDIATE disables intermediate behavior for specific files, for all files built using a pattern, or for the entire makefile.
* New feature: The $(let ...) function This function allows user-defined functions to define a set of local variables: values can be assigned to these variables from within the user-defined function and they will not impact global variable assignments.
* New feature: The $(intcmp ...) function This function allows conditional evaluation controlled by a numerical comparison.
* New feature: Improved support for -l / --load-average On systems that provide /proc/loadavg (Linux), GNU Make will use it to determine the number of runnable jobs and use this as the current load, avoiding the need for heuristics.
* New feature: The --shuffle command line option This option reorders goals and prerequisites to simulate non-determinism that may be seen using parallel build. Shuffle mode allows a form of \"fuzz testing\" of parallel builds to verify that all prerequisites are correctly described in the makefile.
* New feature: The --jobserver-style command line option and named pipes A new jobserver method is used on systems where mkfifo(3) is supported.
* GNU Make has sometimes chosen unexpected, and sub-optimal, chains of implicit rules due to the definition of \"ought to exist\" in the implicit rule search algorithm, which considered any prerequisite mentioned in the makefile as \"ought to exist\". This algorithm has been modified to prefer prerequisites mentioned explicitly in the target being built and only if that results in no matching rule, will GNU Make consider prerequisites mentioned in other targets as \"ought to exist\".
* GNU Make was performing secondary expansion of all targets, even targets which didn\'t need to be considered during the build. In this release only targets which are considered will be secondarily expanded.
* If the MAKEFLAGS variable is modified in a makefile, it will be re-parsed immediately rather than after all makefiles have been read.
* The -I option accepts an argument \"-\" (e.g., \"-I-\") which means \"reset the list of search directories to empty\".
* New debug option \"print\" will show the recipe to be run, even when silent mode is set, and new debug option \"why\" will show why a target is rebuilt (which prerequisites caused the target to be considered out of date).
* The existing --trace option is made equivalent to --debug=print,why
* Target-specific variables can now be marked \"unexport\".
* Exporting / unexporting target-specific variables is handled correctly, so that the attribute of the most specific variable setting is used.
* Special targets like .POSIX are detected upon definition, ensuring that any change in behavior takes effect immediately, before the next line is parsed.
* When the pipe-based jobserver is enabled and GNU Make decides it is invoking a non-make sub-process and closes the jobserver pipes, it will now add a new option to the MAKEFLAGS environment variable that disables the jobserver.
* A long-standing issue with the directory cache has been resolved: changes made as a side-effect of some other target\'s recipe are now noticed as expected.- jobserver-noinherit.patch, jobserver-fifo.patch: Removed- test-driver.patch: Removed- fix-57962.patch: Removed- make-testcases_timeout.diff: Removed

* Sat Feb 22 2020 bjorn.lieAATTgmail.com- No longer recommend -lang: supplements are in use.
* Mon Jan 20 2020 schwabAATTsuse.de- Update to make 4.3
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility! Previously appending using \'+=\' to an empty variable would result in a value starting with a space
* NOTE: Deprecated behavior. Contrary to the documentation, suffix rules with prerequisites are being treated BOTH as simple targets AND as pattern rules
* New feature: Grouped explicit targets
* New feature: .EXTRA_PREREQS variable
* Makefiles can now specify the \'-j\' option in their MAKEFLAGS variable and this will cause make to enable that parallelism mode
* Error messages printed when invoking non-existent commands have been cleaned up and made consistent.
* A new option --no-silent has been added, that cancels the effect of the -s/--silent/--quiet flag
* A new option -E has been added as a short alias for --eval
* All wildcard expansion within GNU make, including $(wildcard ...), will sort the results
