The error messages are associated with the wrong targets.

I thought I reported this already...

Thanks,

Thank for the report.  I've applied a fix that will appear in the next
automake release.

<0001-dist-adjust-warning-messages-about-shar-and-tarZ-dep.patch>

It looks like the warning content for those two targets are reversed to me...

Cheers,

Sure, in the diff that Aharon reported they were (which is why he opened
the bug :-) My patch (attached to the message you replied to) fixes that.
