Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-14 17:50:07 UTC
The patch in summary is touching both Makefile.in and Makefile.am, probably to avoid autotools rebuild.

This treatment is usually reserved for a few selected system packages that cannot have their autotool scripts rebuilt.

This _could_ cause maintainermode-driven rebuild (see http://blog.flameeyes.eu/articles/2008/06/13/maintaner-mode ), which is something we should be avoiding as much as possible.

Please just patch Makefile.am and/or configure.in/.ac and rebuild autotools, unless you have very good reasons not to.
Comment 1 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-10-28 23:48:52 UTC
False positive. Only Makefile.am and configure.ac are touched by this patch. Closing
