[syslinux] I cannot build syslinux-5.11-pre8 from git (No rule to make target `../core/ldlinux.bss')
Hi, I am trying to build syslinux-5.11-pre8 but it will fail: /tmp/foo # cat /etc/debian_version jessie/sid /tmp/foo # pwd /tmp/foo /tmp/foo # git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/boot/syslinux/syslinux.git Cloning into 'syslinux'... remote: Counting objects: 47602, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (12273/12273), done. remote: Total 47602 (delta 35454), reused 46954 (delta 34994) Receiving objects: 100% (47602/47602), 14.71 MiB | 3.18 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (35454/35454), done. /tmp/foo # cd syslinux /tmp/foo/syslinux (git)-[master] # git checkout syslinux-5.11-pre8 Note: checking out 'syslinux-5.11-pre8'. You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again.

Hi, OK, I solved the problem. Before calling "make installer", I first have to call "make spotless" and "make". Then I can call "make installer". Is that documented, somewhere? -- Regards, Igor
