Description Yeti 2003-10-12 17:43:43 UTC 
The example Makefile.am (examples/Makefile.am) doesn't provide an
uninstall-local target.  So packages using it as a template doesn't
uninstall cleanly (and must fail make distcheck) unless package maintainer
invents one (and this happens rarely).

Please provide also a ChangeLog entry.
Comment 3 Owen Taylor 2003-11-03 22:45:01 UTC 
I generally donn't consider a ChangeLog entry necessary
as long as the bug report describes the changes...

Writing ChangeLog entries for a patch when the patch goes
through multiple iterations is confusing and easy to mess
up; it's generally easy enough for the person commiting
to CVS to write the ChangeLog entry.

However, the right fix is to update the example to use
gtk-doc.make and the gtkdocize tool. While this requires
a recent version of automake, it makes things *much*
simpler. (And gtk-doc.make does have an uninstall rule)
Comment 4 Damon Chaplin 2004-02-15 15:07:03 UTC 
The docs need updating as well. Upping to high priority.

Marking the patch as obsolete,
gtk-doc.make has a uninstall-local target
Comment 7 Damon Chaplin 2004-09-10 14:11:20 UTC 
I've updated the example Makefile.am and docs in cvs, so closing this.
