Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-471:
-------------------------------------------
Noah, the thing with $(top_srcdir) is that if you do a VPATH build then you end
up creating the tmp directory structure in the src tree and not the build tree.
make distcheck adjusts file permissions to prevent writing by the build process
and this step fails. So is it possible to use $(top_builddir) or just prevent
make dev from running durring distcheck?
