Justification: no longer builds from source

Trying to builf madwifi version 0.svn20060207-4 on mipsel, I have seen
it now fails to build from source:

  rm -rf debian/patched
  /usr/bin/make -C tools clean
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/aurel32/madwifi/madwifi-0.svn20060207/tools' ../Makefile.inc:203: ../hal/public/mips-elf.inc: No such file or directory make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../hal/public/mips-elf.inc'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/aurel32/madwifi/madwifi-0.svn20060207/tools'
  make: *** [clean] Error 2

The problem was already there in the previous version, but the error was
ignored. Therefore I suggest to make the following change:

diff -u madwifi-0.svn20060207/debian/rules madwifi-0.svn20060207/debian/rules
--- madwifi-0.svn20060207/debian/rules
+++ madwifi-0.svn20060207/debian/rules
@@ -41 +41 @@
-    $(MAKE) -C tools clean
+    -$(MAKE) -C tools clean


My intention was to make the upstream tools/Makefile _never_ call Makefile.inc. I will look into this some more this weekend.

Thanks for the report.

Kel.


Okay, the clean target is being called first, before the dirty Makefile is patched. Ignoring this error is okay (for now) with the suggested fix. Will make that change for the next upload, thanks.

madwifi-ng has been cleaned up in this regard, therefore this will not cause problems when we switch to those sources.

Thanks, Kel.
