[Openvip-users] UPF Makefile buglet

[Tom T. <tr...@re...>]

From upf/Makefile.am:

SUBDIRS = tools/omniidl include src tools tests examples

This is technically wrong, and newer versions of automake will
complain about it.

One fix would be to rearrange directories so that omniidl is its own
top-level directory.  Another possible fix would be to arrange it so
that all of "tools" can be built first.

How do you define "technically wrong"? In my book, it's that something=20
doesn't work.

Last time I checked it only warned about it, but still produces=20
working makefiles, i.e. it does work -- did something change since=20
then?

No, but the warnings are there for a reason.  It means this isn't
supported, and might break in the future.

I didn't check recently but in the past things like this could prevent
the automatic rebuild rules from working.
