Not feeling compelled to dig into the perl modules I have decided to use the following approach to this im my makefiles. There is always a .source .build e.t.c.... created in the build directory, for the sake of makefile dependencies. These files do not need to be in the actual source tree of the package, but can reside on top of it. Also these files need not be stubs but may contain information, thus instead of just touching .source I echo the root of the unpacked tarball into it, for example in openswan. OPENSWAN_DIR:=$(OPENSWAN_SOURCE:.tar.gz=) OPENSWAN_TARGET_DIR:=$(BT_BUILD_DIR)/openswan export USE_AGGRESSIVE=false export USE_XAUTH=true export USE_BASH=false export USE_EXTRACRYPTO=true .source: zcat $(OPENSWAN_SOURCE) | tar -xvf - echo $(OPENSWAN_DIR) > .source ..... clean: -rm -f .build rm -rf $(OPENSWAN_TARGET_DIR) for i in $(KARCHS); do \ rm -rf $(BT_STAGING_DIR)/lib/modules/$(BT_KERNEL_RELEASE)-$$i/kernel/net/ipsec ;\ done; make -C `cat .source` clean srcclean: clean rm -rf `cat .source` This allows to get rid of the redundant information in buildtool.mk while maintaining the current infrastructure. cheers Erich ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
