Description Peter Hjalmarsson 2008-01-10 13:53:34 UTC 
This is a problem due to the usage of "install-exec-local"  wich makes the Makefile sometimes try to 'ln -s gedit gnome-test-editor' before all install-exec really has installed everything (and fail becouse gedit does not exist in the right place yet). By using "install-exec-hook" instead the Makefile will not try to run 'ln -s' until install-exec really has done its job.

sometimes as in "it can occur if you run make -j or make -j${NUMBER}" on a compile farm or a multi proc/core system. Thanks for considering.

Patch against trunk.

As this is something that breaks SMP/distcc builds, could you please apply it?
