That seems like it might work - then you can change a single line in cfg.mk to choose which RULESET you prefer. > > Would be nice to get maint.mk to include a local syntax.mk (if it > exists) provided by the maintainers where customized rules could be > defined making use of _sc_search_regexp. That already exists, although it is named cfg.mk, not syntax.mk. Any rule you create in cfg.mk is automatically used during make syntax-check. Coreutils in particular makes heavy use of local customized syntax checks. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
