GNU Automake 1.7.9 released

[Alexandre Duret-Lutz]

We're pleased to announce the release of Automake 1.7.9.

Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in's
suitable for use with Autoconf, compliant with the GNU Makefile
standards, and portable to various make implementations.

This ninth bug fix release will probably be the last of the 1.7
series.  We are heading towards a first beta of Automake 1.8 this
week.
