Hi.

I have a repo for my project 'lsdupes' in ~benc/src/lsdupes.

2.2.0 and 2.4.1 both fail with similar but different error messages when I 
try to clone that:

$ mkdir tmp10
$ cd tmp10
$ darcs get ~/src/lsdupes
Unapplicable patch:
Fri Dec 25 14:58:11 CET 2009  [email protected]
  * should use autoconf now
darcs: ./Makefile: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or 
directory)
$ darcs --exact-version
darcs compiled on May 25 2009, at 11:35:34
# configured Thu Jan 15 14:31:24 PST 2009
./configure /usr/local/share/config.site /usr/local/etc/config.site

Context:

and with 2.4.1:

$ mkdir tmp11
$ cd tmp11
$ darcs get ~/src/lsdupes
Converting old-fashioned repository to hashed format...

Fetching a hashed repository would be faster.  Perhaps you could persuade
the maintainer to run darcs optimize --upgrade with darcs 2.4.0 or higher?

There used to be a makefile in my repository, but I subsequently removed 
it and moved to using autoconf which generates it at build time. However, 
there is no Makefile from that sitting around in my repo directory at the 
moment.

The patch that its failing on is not the patch that removed the makefile 
(I think) - that happens a bit later - but for a while I had the autoconf 
generated Makefile in darcs too.

So whats going on here and how can I make it better?

(maybe trying to apply that patch to Makefile after applying the patch 
that deleted it? I don't really know my way around darcs guts to go any 
further than the above)

I've put a tarball of ~benc/src/lsdupes, the repo I mentioned above, at 
http://dildano.hawaga.org.uk/tmp/lsdupes.tar.gz - so untarring that and 
then attempting to clone it would (I guess?) give the same behaviour for 
anyone interested.
