Did I write that? It just happened to me that I lost the output of a former release because I did not remember the make target silently deletes those directories. I'd move the directory deletion and recreation to a separate cleaning target and abort the tarball creation if the directory is not empty. For the sake of stupid people like myself. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
