cvs/HEAD: broken clean on linux+libtool: msg#00159

gnu.libtool.general

Subject: cvs/HEAD: broken clean on linux+libtool

I have attached a small example tar.gz of this (obvious) bug.

cd test
make
make clean

... and it is not that clean. (it leaves .la and .a files in */.libs)

If you look at the commands libtool executes:

rm -f lib2/libb.la lib2/main/main/.libs/libb.al
lib2/main/main/.libs/libb.la lib2/main/main/.libs/libb.lai

rm -f lib1/liba.la lib1/lib2/lib2/main/main/.libs/liba.al
lib1/lib2/lib2/main/main/.libs/liba.la
lib1/lib2/lib2/main/main/.libs/liba.lai

... you will see that it is definitely on crack.

There is simply something wrong in the directory logic.
I presume this is broken on all architectures.

Please fix before 1.5. :-)

Thanks.

PS. I am hoping this attached test makes the bug more clear since my
previous *4* posts (one of which was a work-around patch) on this bug have
been silently ignored.

... I am also interested if someone can test the 'make' part on MacOS.
I have heard rumours that this fails.
