Ah, we are running 'make distcheck(-light)' in Buildbot, versus 'make dist'. Still, I think we should make this part of the normal build procedure (or at least 'make distcheck'), but we can use 'make dist' to distribute the USB files on the off-chance that someone doesn't have Perl installed when they build from a tarball. (We aren't depending on a specific version of Perl, so it's not an outrageous dependency.) Otherwise, nobody will ever test this. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ Nut-upsdev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsdev
