We want to have an INSTALL file that contains installation instructions for the tarball users. These instructions are necessarily package specific, because they need to list the prerequisites or reference the DEPENDENCIES file. Additionally, many people who are not aware that tarballs are the primary means for source code distribution of GNU packages check out the git repository and then expect to see instructions for installing from that git checkout in the INSTALL file. See e.g. . Unfortunately, both Automake (with strictness option = 'gnu') and 'bootstrap' both contain code to copy the generic (not package specific) installation instructions to the file 'INSTALL'. This is not what we want, so we disable it. (Other packages handle this issue by putting part of the installation instructions into the README file. This is suboptimal, because this is not what the README file is for.) * autogen.sh: Import INSTALL.generic from gnulib. * INSTALL: Entirely rewritten, based on poke/INSTALL. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add INSTALL.generic. 2024-11-22 Bruno Haible Upgrade to libtool 2.5.4. * m4/libtool.m4: Update from libtool-2.5.4. * m4/ltversion.m4: Likewise. * build-aux/ltmain.sh: Likewise. 2024-11-07 Bruno Haible doc: Update the GFDL text. * doc/fdl.texi: Update from gnulib/doc/fdl-1.3.texi. 2024-10-28 Bruno Haible doc: Improve usability of generated PDF. * doc/libunistring.texi: Use a brown colour for interactive links. 2024-10-16 Bruno Haible Prepare for 1.3 release. * version.sh: Bump version number, date, gnulib version. * README: Update version. * lib/Makefile.am (LTV_*): Update to 7:0:2 (determined with help from gnulib's libtool-next-version). 2024-10-16 Bruno Haible Assume the target system has . * gnulib-local/lib/unistr.in.h.diff: Simplify. * gnulib-local/lib/unicase.in.h.diff: Remove file. * gnulib-local/lib/unictype.in.h.diff: Remove file. * gnulib-local/lib/unigbrk.in.h.diff: Remove file. * gnulib-local/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove them. * lib/stdbool.mini.h: Remove file. * lib/Makefile.am (nobase_nodist_include_HEADERS): Remove unistring/stdbool.h.
