AFAIK AM_MAINTAINER_MODE disables those rules by default in the first place, requiring --enable-maintainer-mode to be passed to configure to enable them again. AFAIR this is to avoid the rules triggering spuriously from disted tarball trees. Is that still an issue these days? If so, the change is probably fine, as it's what most autotools projects seem to do. But the commit message is slightly misleading. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
