Actually thinking about this in more detail, git_version.py should not be deleted by "make clean", or "make distclean", but by "make maintainer-clean" as it needs to be in the distribution. Adding this to MAINTAINERCLEANFILES results in the same error. How can I tell distcheck that this file should remain in the tree after a distclean? Cheers Adam
