This makes Emacs ask for confirmation like this:
The local variables list in /home/armbru/work/qemu/
contains values that may not be safe (*).
Do you want to apply it? You can type
y -- to apply the local variables list.
n -- to ignore the local variables list.
! -- to apply the local variables list, and permanently mark these
values (*) as safe (in the future, they will be set automatically.)
* eval : (setq auto-mode-alist (append (quote (("Makefile.*" .
makefile-gmake-mode) ("\\.mak\\'" . makefile-gmake-mode) ("\\.json\\'" .
python-mode))) auto-mode-alist))
Not a nice user experience. For detailed information why and how this
stuff works, see
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Safe-File-Variables.html
Why can't we simply use the usual file name extension like a normal
person?
If that's too much to ask, then I'd recommend adding modelines (like the
ones you delete) to the Makefiles that lack one.
