Well, I could easily be wrong on just about anything to do with make files, but on a second look that appeared to be dealing with eliminating an installed pg_receivellog binary, which is not created. > I don't think either hunk has anything to do with that buildfailure > though - can you reproduce the error without? I tried that scenario three times and it failed three times. Then I made the above changes and it worked. Then I eliminated the one on the uninstall target and tried a couple more times and it worked on both attempts. The scenario is to have a `make world` build in the source tree, and run the above line starting with `make maintainer-clean` and going to `make -j4 world`. I did notice that without that change to the maintainer-clean target I did not get a pg_receivellog.Po file in src/bin/pg_basebackup/.deps/ -- and with it I do. I admit to being at about a 1.5 on a 10 point scale of make file competence -- I just look for patterns used for things similar to what I want to do and copy without much understanding of what it all means. :-( So when I got an error on pg_receivellog which didn't happen on pg_receivexlog, I looked for differences -- my suggestion has no more basis than that and the fact that empirical testing seemed to show that it worked. -- Kevin Grittner EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
