If you are going to run 'make distclean' or 'make maintainer-clean' you
should do it *before* the CVS update. Otherwise files in the make
processes' run might have been removes, Makefile.am files could have
been changed (leading to changed Makefiles) and so the right files will
not be cleaned and so on and so on. Your current method arbitrarily
changes a bunch of code and then hopes that the old Makefile will still
be relevant. Not always a good assumption.
Also, the attached file may prove useful if your tree is a little
confused. Run 'python super-clean.py .' inside the gimp directory. It
will remove all files that are not known to CVS from your local copy
(without running out on the network -- it just looks at the local CVS
control files). You can run this, then 'cvs update' to get any new files
and be assured that you have a pristine CVS copy.
