Distcheck fails because of config.lt not being removed
Last modified: 2010-08-13 11:44:30 UTC
ERROR: files left in build directory after distclean: ./config.lt
Created attachment 166838 [details] [review] Add 'rm -f config.lt' to distclean-local Libtool 2.2.8, pulled by jhbuild as of today, doesn't remove the autogenerated config.lt in distclean. Add it explicitely to distclean-local to avoid breaking distcheck. http://www.mail-archive.com/automake-patches@gnu.org/msg01321.html
Actually, it seems to be an issue of automake, not libtool.
It has been fixed in automake 1.10.3 but autogen.sh requires only automake 1.8 or newer.
Created attachment 167745 [details] [review] Replace autogen.sh by a newer version It pulls automake 1.10 or 1.11. Greatly inspired from GLib's.
