Hello!
On Mac OS X/macOS configure scripts leave conftest.dSYM subdirectories behind,
created by dsymutil:
checking for build system preprocessor... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a
directory
checking for build system executable suffix... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a
directory
checking whether build system compiler is ANSI... rm: conftest.dSYM: is
a directory
checking for build system compiler math library... rm: conftest.dSYM:
is a directory
Building GCC 10.3 with MacPorts the configure scripts produce 178 such reports
(and more than 11,000 checking lines without complaint). (The relation is worse
when building smaller software packages.)
Is it possible to replace the simple "rm" with "rm -r", at least on darwin, the
macOS/Mac OS X? Or create a special macro to be used when dsymutil gets
involved?
