GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 635503
Allow clean builds from outside the source tree
Last modified: 2018-05-22 13:48:25 UTC
Created attachment 175014 [details] [review] Patch fixing the reported issue Vala fails to if you do a clean build in a directory that is not the source root (ie. "clean" as in "not from tarball, but from a clean source tree"). This is fx. the case if you do a jhbuild with buildroot!=None like we do in Unity. The attached patch fixes this. DISCLAIMER: I've not checked 'make distcheck' after this, but I'm quite sure it shouldn't break.
Created attachment 175015 [details] [review] Patch - now git enaled And why not attach the patch I made with git format-patch instead? ;-)
(for the record - I've now tested that distcheck indeed still passes)

@ole: This won't work that easily since we need to ship the generated c-code in the tarball.
@Rico: Ooh right, I totally didn't think of that. Sorry.
