Paul Joseph Davis resolved COUCHDB-471.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Assignee: Paul Joseph Davis (was: Noah Slater)
Fixed in r805272.
Looking into this [1] I found that the reason that this was failing (after
fixing license checks) was due to VPATH builds [2]. Specifically in how a
couple of the targets weren't using magic variables when building targets. See
[3] and more specifically [4] for the solutions. Ended up rejiggering a couple
things to avoid paths when building targets.
Note to Noah, make distcheck was wanting to call make dev targets and was then
failing when trying to create the tmp/ directory structure. I removed the
$(top_srcdir) and made the directories local to the current directory. You'll
probably yell at me about this, but it made things work and seemed to fit best
with what I read about VPATH builds.
