I am pleased to announce the release of GNU M4 1.4.3, the GNU macro processor.

This release fixes two more long-standing bugs and, importantly, brings the
behaviour of m4 in the presence of missing files in line with the future 2.0
release:

New in 1.4.4: 20 October 2005

* ./configure --infodir=/usr/share/info now works correctly.
* When any file named on the command line is missing exit with status 1.

m4-1.4.4 is available now from ftp.gnu.org, along with diffs and xdeltas
against m4-1.4.3.  Please use a mirror to reduce stress on the main gnu machine:

  http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html

Here are the compressed sources:

  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.4.tar.gz
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.4.tar.bz2

Here are the xdeltas and diffs against m4-1.4.3:

  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.3-1.4.4.diff.gz
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.3-1.4.4.xdelta

Here are the gpg detached signatures:

  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.4.tar.gz.sig
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.4.tar.bz2.sig
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.3-1.4.4.diff.gz.sig
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/m4-1.4.3-1.4.4.xdelta.sig

You should download the signature named after any tarball or diff you download
and then verify its integrity with, for example:

  gpg --verify m4-1.4.4.tar.gz.sig

The fingerprint of the signature used to sign the files is:

  CFE2 BE70 7B53 8E8B 2675  7D84 1513 0809 2983 D606

Here are the MD5 and SHA1 checksums:

  3fb81c822ad4bfc6ab70f32c02b32d118389d633  m4-1.4.3-1.4.4.xdelta

This release was bootstrapped with autoconf-2.59, but is usable with any
previous versions of autoconf for your own projects.

Alternatively you can fetch the sources form anonymous cvs by using the
following commands (just hit return when you are prompted for the password):

  $ export CVS_RSH=ssh
  $ cvs -z3 -d :ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org:/cvsroot/m4 \
  co -r release-1_4_4 -d m4-1.4.4 m4

Please report any bugs to .

Enjoy!
        Gary.
