Agreed. It's a trade-off. Guards aren't bad, but in this case their benefit is questionable. It probably doesn't work completely anyway, since if the build framework uses Autotools, there likely are no pregenerated Makefiles, and only a successful run on the configure script will generate them. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
