Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm not too sure about it, because some of those files we do want shipped in source tarballs; and they are definitely cleaned in the builddir by maintainer-clean. I didn't want to get into the detail of what's the ultimate distclean charter; my immediate problem was that "make -C doc maintainer-clean" was not getting rid of the stamp files and thus I was getting bit by the problem that openjade was running all the time, even after I maintainer-cleaned. By Peter's recent decree that tarballs are supposed to be built in non-vpath-builds only, I am not really sure what should actually happen here, both on build and on the various clean targets. > The references to man files in srcdir in nonsql_manpage_files and > adjacent macros seem a tad suspicious as well. I agree, it probably merits more investigation. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
