The latter is not officially "wrong", but *is* terribly anachronistic.
I think automake documentation or comments call that syntax obsolescent.
* cfg.mk (_makefile_at_at_check_exceptions): Exempt @SCHEMADIR@
and @SYSCONFDIR@ uses -- there are no Makefile variables for those.
* docs/Makefile.am: Use $(INSTALL), not @INSTALL@.

Commit 66137344fe changed the Python detection
mechanism in configure to use AM_PATH_PYTHON. This results in a changed
install location for the Python bindings, at least on Fedora 12 64bit systems.
Before this commit libvirt.py and libvirtmod.so were installed to
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages
After this commit they are installed to
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages
Mixed Python packages (containing *.py and *.so files) should be installed to
the pyexecdir directory detected by AM_PATH_PYTHON.
This restores the install location from before the AM_PATH_PYTHON commit.
* configure.in: remove unnecessary pythondir export
* python/Makefile.am: switch from pythondir to pyexecdir
Using AM_PATH_PYTHON solves the site-packages directory problem. At least
in Ubuntu with Python 2.6 and later site-packages is renamed to dist-packages
and site-packages is not part of sys.path anymore. So installing the libvirt
Python bindings to site-packages renders them unusable, because they can be
imported from there without manually including site-packages into sys.path.
AM_PATH_PYTHON detects the correct site-packages/dist-packages directory.
python-config --includes gives the correct include path for the Python header
files. The old probing code stays there as fallback mechanism.
* configure.in: use AM_PATH_PYTHON and python-config
* python/Makefile.am: remove -I because PYTHON_INCLUDES contains it now
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Public API contract for
virStreamPtr object
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export data stream APIs
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export internal helper APIs
* src/libvirt.c: Data stream API driver dispatch
* src/datatypes.h, src/datatypes.c: Internal helpers for virStreamPtr
object
* src/driver.h: Define internal driver API for streams
* .x-sc_avoid_write: Ignore src/libvirt.c because it trips
up on comments including write()
* python/Makefile.am: Add libvirt-override-virStream.py
* python/generator.py: Add rules for virStreamPtr class
* python/typewrappers.h, python/typewrappers.c: Wrapper
for virStreamPtr
* docs/libvirt-api.xml, docs/libvirt-refs.xml: Regenerate
with new APIs
* README: New file describing what each file is used for
* livvirt-override.c, libvirt-override.py, libvirt-override-api.xml,
libvirt-override-virConnect.py: Manually written code overriding
the generator
* typewrappers.c, typewrappers.h: Data type wrappers
* generator.py: Automatically pre-prend contents of libvirt-override.py
to generated libvirt.py. Output into libvirt.py directly instead of
libvirtclass.py. Don't generate libvirtclass.txt at all. Write C
files into libvirt.c/.h directly
* Makefile.am: Remove rule for creating libvirt.py from libvirt-override.py
and libvirtclass.py, since generator.py does it directly
python/libvir.py python/libvirt_wrap.h python/types.c:
adds support for events from the python bindings, also
improves the generator allowing to embbed per function
definition files, patch by Ben Guthro
* examples/domain-events/events-python/event-test.py: also
adds a programming example
Daniel
* python/libvir.c, python/libvir.py: Make Python aware that
the C bindings module is called cygvirtmod.dll when compiled
by CYGWIN.
* python/Makefile.am: Remove symlink libvirtmod.dll -> cygvirtmod.dll
no longer necessary because of the above.
* configure.in: Remove AM_CONDITIONAL(CYGWIN).
* configure.in: Added CYGWIN_EXTRA_LDFLAGS, CYGWIN_EXTRA_LIBADD,
CYGWIN_EXTRA_PYTHON_LIBADD, CYGWIN automake conditional.
* src/Makefile.am: Extra flags required to build DLL of libvirt
for Cygwin.
* python/Makefile.am: Extra flags and rule required to build
Python module for Cygwin.
* Makefile.am: Expand some "*" wildcards, and (for now) disable
the relatively unimportant, distuninstallcheck target.
Fix a few redirect-directly-to-target bugs.
Add a few $(srcdir)/ prefixes and add an uninstall-local rule.
* docs/Makefile.am: More of the same. Split some long lines.
* python/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* python/tests/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* qemud/Makefile.am: Likewise.
* tests/Makefile.am: Remove the directories already listed in SUBDIRS.
* docs/examples/index.py: Adapt to produce the desired changes in
docs/examples/Makefile.am. Also, sort *.c, so results are reproducible,
and emit a comment telling emacs and vi that the file is read-only.
* docs/examples/Makefile.am: Regenerate.
Author: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
* src/remote_internal.c, python/Makefile.am: Python bindings
fixed, and now building virConnect.getHostname and
virConnect.getURI. Fixed a problem which stopped
libvirt.py from being (re-)built. Rearranged
python/Makefile.am to make it cleaner and clearer.
* acinclude.m4: add LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS, copied from
GNOME but with a few more flags we'd been using.
* configure.in: use that instead of setting CFLAGS
directly.
* proxy/Makefile.am, python/Makefile.am, qemud/Makefile.am,
src/Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: use $(WARN_CFLAGS)
* python/Makefile.am python/generator.py python/libvir.c
python/libvir.py: improved python binding, raise exception
when an instance creation or lookup fails, and add support
for the global error handler, per conn handler still needed
* python/tests/error.py python/tests/Makefile.am: adding a
regression test
Daniel
version for python bindings, heavilly based on libxml2/libxslt
way of doing things, maybe this need to be revisited. Added packaging
too.
* src/hash.h: fixed the Copyright notice.
