This isn't working for VPATH builds, although I haven't had time to figure out why. I'm now getting large dumps like: > grep: ../../tests/Makefile.am: No such file or directory > : No such file or directory > grep: ../../src/symtab.c: No such file or directory > (standard input) > maint.mk: the above files do not call set_program_name > make: *** [sc_program_name] Error 1 > make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... > grep: ../../.gitattributes: No such file or directory > grep: ../../.gitignore: No such file or directory when I built in a subdirectory of the checkout. Somehow, the VPATH location of '../' got turned into '../../'. -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well! Eric Blake e...@byu.net
