roman asked why zexy installs a large number of never-before-seen
files,
and i told him that they can safely be deleted.
so the "problem" is that they are pointless files, lying around on
the
filesystem doing no good, and only lead to confusion.
if you prefer to have the files around, feel free to keep them.
I prefer to not have global kludges in the build system. Yes there
are still many, but we should be reducing them not adding them. I
don't really care either way about the .la files.
If zexy is causing this problem, then this find/rm thing should be
part of the zexy_install target, instead of global.
Fair enough. And sorry for adding another global kludge.
IOhannes and me agreed that those files generally are unnecessary.
That's why I put the line to the global install target. However, I
very
much understand your preference not to add more of those global
'solutions'.
If that's ok with you, I'll move it to zexy_install and make it a zexy
only solution.

Why not make it part of zexy's build system? If zexy shouldn't
install them anyway, that seems like the best place for the fix.
Debian's pd-zexy also should not include those files, so it would be
fixing that problem also.
