By the way, it seems I'm missing an important piece of the puzzle
regarding how automake operates. Can someone explain the following?
?LZIP?DIST_TARGETS += dist-lzip
?XZ?DIST_TARGETS += dist-xz
?SHAR?DIST_TARGETS += dist-shar
?BZIP2?DIST_TARGETS += dist-bzip2
?GZIP?DIST_TARGETS += dist-gzip
Hello list,
attached is a patch that addresses several minor issues - in my
opinion - of make dist.
First, it removes the special flags used for the compressors. Why?
Because:
: xz -e
unreasonably slow for little to no benefit
: bzip2 -9
is the default, no need to set it explicitly
: xz/lzip -9
