yup, I've faced it when updating debs...
that reminds me that my mail announcing that is still in my draft box.
well, following the 2.4.0 release, and some Debian packaging update, I've
uncovered the major issue you've mentioned. I'll explain the thing here
since it's an issue that I thought was addressed...
the current make rules for the USB files are bad.
these generated files shouldn't be part of MOSTLYCLEANFILES, nor any
*CLEANFILES target.
the thing is that when we generate these files, we overwrite existing ones.
so we have to address more finely the issue and the following cases:
./configure && make clean && ./configure
./configure && make distclean && ./configure
make distcheck
for the 2 first, we have nothing to do (thus we don't list these files in
*CLEANFILES).
for the latter, we have to clean these 3 remaining files.
for that, we need to use distcleancheck_listfiles, ie:
http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Dist.html#Dist
see ?14.4
I've just commited that to the trunk, and it will be part of 2.4.1 (out by
next monday)
thanks again Alexey.
cheers,
Arnaud
