Sorry, just realized that was the output of my filtering of the log. Here's what I should have quoted: >From git://git.linaro.org/people/pmaydell/qemu-arm + a872ea5...6315472 staging -> pmaydell/staging (forced update) warning: unable to rmdir capstone: Directory not empty error: pathspec 'capstone' did not match any file(s) known to git. Did you forget to 'git add'? make: Entering directory `/home/pm215/qemu/build/all' config-host.mak is out-of-date, running configure GIT ui/keycodemapdb dtc capstone make[1]: *** No rule to make target `all'. Stop. error: pathspec 'capstone' did not match any file(s) known to git. Did you forget to 'git add'? make: *** [git-submodule-update] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [subdir-capstone] Error 2 Install prefix /usr/local BIOS directory /usr/local/share/qemu firmware path /usr/local/share/qemu-firmware binary directory /usr/local/bin [rest of configure output skipped] replication support yes VxHS block device no make: Leaving directory `/home/pm215/qemu/build/all' It looks like the git update script thinks that there ought to be a 'capstone' submodule, which of course there isn't any more, so it barfs trying to update it. thanks -- PMM
