From 6cbab7c1590dd882474450ebf5314d963d9f346e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Blake Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 17:14:19 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] build: avoid corrupted gnulib/tests/Makefile Running 'make check' can sometimes fail in the gnulib/tests subdirectory, when doing an incremental build, because ./bootstrap generates a Makefile.am that tries to refer to ../../.. instead of ../.., and gets lost. This may be an upstream gnulib bug, where a more elegant solution will present itself in the future: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/24898 But in the meantime, I was able to reproduce both the issue, and this solution to work around it. * bootstrap.conf (bootstrap_epilogue): Ensure that no stray ../../.. components remain in gnulib/tests/Makefile.in.
