Description: 
 make       - The GNU version of the "make" utility.
Closes: 62619
Changes: 
 make (3.79-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release, adds fixes already present in Debian. This
     closes: Bug#62619
     changes are:
      * GNU make optionally supports internationalization and locales via
        the GNU gettext (or local gettext if suitable) package.  See the
        ABOUT-NLS file for more information on configuring GNU make for
        NLS.
      * Previously, GNU make quoted variables such as MAKEFLAGS and
        MAKEOVERRIDES for proper parsing by the shell.  This allowed them to
        be used within make build scripts.  However, using them there is not
        proper behavior: they are meant to be passed to subshells via the
        environment.  Unfortunately the values were not quoted properly to be
        passed through the environment.  This meant that make didn't properly
        pass some types of command line values to submakes.
 .
        With this version we change that behavior: now these variables are
        quoted properly for passing through the environment, which is the
        correct way to do it.  If you previously used these variables
        explicitly within a make rule you may need to re-examine your use for
        correctness given this change.
      * A new psuedo-target .NOTPARALLEL is available.  If defined, the
        current makefile is run serially regardless of the value of -j.
        However, submakes are still eligible for parallel execution.
      * The --debug option has changed: it now allows optional flags
        controlling the amount and type of debugging output.  By default only
        a minimal amount information is generated, displaying the names of
        "normal" targets (not makefiles) were deemed out of date and in need
        of being rebuilt.
 .
        Note that the -d option behaves as before: it takes no arguments and
        all debugging information is generated.
      * The `-p' (print database) output now includes filename and linenumber
        information for variable definitions, to help debugging.
      * The wordlist function no longer reverses its arguments if the "start"
        value is greater than the "end" value.  If that's true, nothing is
        returned.
      * Hartmut Becker provided many updates for the VMS port of GNU make.
        See the readme.vms file for more details.
