Im not suggesting to kill what it does (building without running checks). Im suggesting that we get module and toplevel targets to be consistent. Right now they are IIRC: | top-level | module make (default goal) | build unitcheck | build unitcheck make build-nocheck | build | ERROR -- no such target make build | build unitcheck | build make all | build unitcheck | build make check | build unitcheck slowcheck | unitcheck slowcheck | subsequentcheck | I dont think that to trigger the same thing (plain build) there are different commands is not particularly consistent or obvious and assume its a frequent frustration for people not knowing the history[1]. So I would suggest to remove build-nocheck and have "make build" and "make all" do the same on top-level as on module level then[1]. Best, Bjoern [1] "make build" from toplevel just ignores the users obvious intend and goes "HAHA, I know what is good for you and will just run tests anyway." Its an entirely useless target on topl-level that we only have, so we can hide build-nocheck behind its back. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
