Hi, I'm finding that sometimes during make install the po/ directory in the source directory gets changed:
in /home/dgilbert/try $ make -j 12 && make install .... make -C po install make[1]: Entering directory `/home/dgilbert/try/po' GEN tr.mo GEN /home/dgilbert/git/qemu/po/de_DE.po GEN de_DE.mo GEN /home/dgilbert/git/qemu/po/it.po GEN it.mo GEN /home/dgilbert/git/qemu/po/hu.po GEN hu.mo GEN /home/dgilbert/git/qemu/po/fr_FR.po GEN fr_FR.mo for obj in tr.mo de_DE.mo it.mo hu.mo fr_FR.mo; do \ base=`basename $obj .mo`; \ install -d /home/dgilbert/try/share/locale/$base/LC_MESSAGES; \ install -m644 $obj /home/dgilbert/try/share/locale/$base/LC_MESSAGES/qemu.mo; \ done make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dgilbert/try/po' My git checkout is in /home/dgilbert/git/qemu and my build dir is /home/dgilbert/try; this gently upsets git since it now sees modified files. Configured with: /home/dgilbert/git/qemu/configure --disable-strip --target-list=x86_64-softmmu --prefix=/home/dgilbert/try This is in 2.1.0-rc5 but it's been happening for a while (F20 host); I can't quite pin down when it happens, it doesn't happen every time, but it's not just directly after rebases.
