In support of Kevin's statement: Out-of-source builds make sense if you want to build from the source multiple times, or if you want to ensure that the source is immutable (for the build process).
None of this seems to be the goal of the Change which was motivated solely by general "you should do out-of-source builds". In fact, in Fedora we would need to either make the source immutable after %prep, or do the %prep step when building the source rpm and then build binaries from that srpm, or in keep the prepped source tree in the lookaside cache (in addition to the upstream source; this requires the packer to prep). So, "pointless" describes this Change really well, until there is more to build upon this change. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
