Hi,
I've just been trying to submit this as a PR at sources.redhat.com, but
I can't get that system to work (get a "Submitter-Id is 'unknown'" error).
So:
Synopsis: Optional subdirectories cause make distcheck to fail
Release: cvs automake (Aug 30 2000)
Environment:
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2
autoconf version 2.13
Description:
If a project has optionally compiled subdirectories, and a make distcheck
is performed on a copy of the project with those subdirectories turned
off, then make distcheck will fail. This is due to make distcheck's check
that make distclean removes all files: make distclean leaves the Makefile
(and .deps/*.Plo, .deps/*.Po) files in the optionally turned off
subdirectories.
File Attachments:
automake_testcase.tgz
How-To-Repeat:
tar zxvf automake_testcase.tgz;
aclocal;automake --add-missing;autoconf;./configure;make distcheck
Fix:
Either use $(DIST_SUBDIRS) instead of $(SUBDIRS) in the rule for make
distclean (and make maintainerclean), or make make distcheck not mind
leftover Makefiles and makefile parts.
