Hi! As »make dist« in some places just considers the current configuration, it really is flawed. That's also the reason that you don't notice the missing files (but just do a diff of the tarball built by it and the source directory) -- they're not used in your configuration (for example, without console-client/ncursesw.c, no nfs/nfsd, only the x86 architecture in libthreads and pfinet), and for the missing *.h files (such as libthreads/i386/cthreads.h), GCC is probably picking up those from the system installation's /usr/include (which definitely is not correct either). Instead of fixing this system, I really think we should switch to using »git archive« and some pre-dist hooks (rebuild documentation, etc.). Compare to what glibc is doing. Any counter arguments?
Grüße, Thomas
