Updated: automake-devel-1.7.6-2


[does NOT require cygwin-1.5.3+ -- I just never announced this upload]

Version 1.7.6-2 of the automake-devel package is now available. It contains GNU automake-1.7.6 installed into /usr/autotool/devel.

Changes from 1.7.6-1:

o move documentation to /usr/share/* and /usr/autotool/devel/share/*

Other important info:

o requires autoconf-2.54 or newer
o no testsuite regressions (that is, any test that existed in 1.7.5
  and was passed then, is still passed now in 1.7.6)
o Continued test failures (failed in both 1.7.5 and 1.7.6)
      subobj9

Summary: 1 failure + 13 skips out of 457 tests.
See NOTES section, below.
