| Done in automake 1.13.2: |
| ------------------------ |
| |
| I have discouraged the use of '.txi' and '.texinfo' suffixes for |
| Texinfo inputs (see commit 'v1.13.1-6-ge1ed314') and the generation |
| of suffix-less info files (commit 'v1.13.1-4-g2af418d'). |
| |
| This is done to ease transition to Automake-NG (see commits |
| 'v1.12.1-416-gd5459b9' and 'v1.12.1-392-ga0c7b6a' there), and |
| (to a lesser degree) to discourage use of seldom-tested setups. |
| |
| |
| The Future: |
| ----------- |
| |
| I have no plans to do the further step of removing support for those |
| usages in future Automake versions. That would be a gratuitous |
| incompatibility (in Automake-NG, they have been useful because have |
| allowed further refactorings and improvements, but those were |
| based on GNU make features, and as such have no place in mainline |
| Automake). |
