Description Theppitak Karoonboonyanan 2009-06-15 11:02:13 UTC 
When built from outside source tree, vino fails with following messages:

---8<---
dbus-binding-tool --prefix=vino_dbus_listener --mode=glib-server dbus-interface.xml > dbus-interface-glue.h
Unable to load "dbus-interface.xml": Failed to open file 'dbus-interface.xml': No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [dbus-interface-glue.h] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/thep/build/gnome_git/vino/server'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/thep/build/gnome_git/vino'
make: *** [all] Error 2
---8<---

This is because of this line in server/Makefile.am:

---8<---
dbus-interface-glue.h: dbus-interface.xml
        dbus-binding-tool --prefix=vino_dbus_listener --mode=glib-server dbus-interface.xml > dbus-interface-glue.h
---8<---

dbus-interface.xml is in srcdir. When builddir != srcdir, this file is just missing, unless VPATH is used in the rule.

Access via auto var

Access the source via auto variable, so VPATH is searched.
