Try "make distclean" (there is no "-").

I gave up trying to build a newly updated (from 6.9 to 6.10.beta7) Sage from source since I got so many errors. Even "make dist-clean" fails as follows: Error building Sage. The following package(s) may have failed to build (not necessarily during this run of 'make dist-clean'): * package: backports_ssl_match_hostname-3.4.0.2 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/backports_ssl_match_hostname-3.4.0.2.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/backports_ssl_match_hostname-3.4.0.2 * package: certifi-14.05.14 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/certifi-14.05.14.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/certifi-14.05.14 * package: decorator-4.0.2 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/decorator-4.0.2.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/decorator-4.0.2 * package: jsonschema-2.4.0 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/jsonschema-2.4.0.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/jsonschema-2.4.0 * package: markupsafe-0.23 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/markupsafe-0.23.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/markupsafe-0.23 * package: setuptools_scm-1.7.0 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/setuptools_scm-1.7.0.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/setuptools_scm-1.7.0 * package: six-1.9.0 log file: /home/jec/sage/logs/pkgs/six-1.9.0.log build directory: /home/jec/sage/local/var/tmp/sage/build/six-1.9.0 The build directory may contain configuration files and other potentially helpful information. WARNING: if you now run 'make' again, the build directory will, by default, be deleted. Set the environment variable SAGE_KEEP_BUILT_SPKGS to 'yes' to prevent this. If I cannot even make dist-clean, what can I do? I have no idea how this situation was reached. Should I just delete the entire directory and start again? This is the reward I get for not building any versions of Sage for a month or two and then trying to fix a bug! John
