As you said, at the moment it will filter out excluded files after checking that the glob matches something. I think I was trying to exclude entire globs from being considered (ignoring missing files in a specific case) as opposed to excluding files which would have otherwise been installed. With that, I think you can close the bug. After originally filing this bug, I changed the codelite packaging to something which worked properly and I'm fine with keeping that. Thanks, James
