Cleaning directories is partially the responsibility of the makefiles though - who else cleans the fpmake executables themselves? Looking at comments in packages/Makefile.fpc, the issue is apparently known. # In case of a distclean, perform an 'old'-style distclean. This to # avoid problems when the package is compiled using fpcmake prior to # running this clean using fpmake. It does not work well, though, since # the sub-directories are not cleaned at all.
