Yes, I got this far as well. > Not sure if this is a bug in gnome-pkg-tools/uploaders.mk and if we > should add dh specific makefile rules, or if extending clean via clean:: > is supposed to work under dh as well. I don't think it can really work. The dh magic relies on the wildcard pattern % matching everything, but a separate clean:: target will always be a better match. So a separate set of makefile rules seems the only way to me. -- Niko Tyni [email protected]
