Description Christian Hergert 2016-03-25 22:09:32 UTC
I haven't proved this yet, but I'm pretty sure we are accidentally doing real builds in the background upon saving files when we shouldn't be.

My only evidence of this so far is that typing make in a terminal for an autotools project "does nothing" and sometimes seems to be racing on accessing .lo objects.

autotools: fix ctags building

When moving to subprocess launcher, we managed to miss the target name
we want to execute. In the common case, this was "ctags". So we were
executing "gmake" instead of "gmake ctags". Quite annoying, glad to have
tracked this one down!
