* HACKING (Administrivia): Make the git-merge-changelog notes more helpful. (Test suite): Don't say lalr1.cc is not exercised in the test suite. (Release Procedure): Update for git and add numerous details that were previously missing. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove Makefile.cfg and Makefile.maint. * maint.mk (announcement): Don't list bison as a bootstrap tool so that announcements don't claim we bootstrapped with whatever bison happened to be in PATH. Add flex as a bootstrap tool. * Makefile.maint: Remove, previously replaced by maint.mk. * Makefile.cfg: Remove, and migrate settings to... * cfg.mk: ... here for the sake of `make announcement'. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add announce-gen. * README: Say GNU Bison instead of just Bison. Suggested by Karl Berry.
This package contains the GNU Bison parser generator. See the file INSTALL for generic compilation and installation instructions. See the section FAQ in the documentation (doc/bison.info) for frequently asked questions. The documentation is also available in PDF and HTML, provided you have a recent version of Texinfo installed: run "make pdf" or "make html". Bison requires GNU m4 1.4.3 or later. See: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.3.tar.gz Bison can work with pre-1.4.3 distributions of GNU m4 if they are sufficiently patched, but if you encounter a bug with an older distribution and report a bug we will probably suggest that you upgrade to 1.4.3 as the first step in trying to fix it. Please send bug reports to <bug-bison@gnu.org>. Please include the version number from `bison --version', and a complete, self-contained test case in each bug report. If you have questions about using Bison and the documentation does not answer them, please send mail to <help-bison@gnu.org>. ----- Copyright (C) 1992, 1998, 1999, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
