Because the dependencies evaluated by "make" don't take into account the different options that were used to compile existing object files. Without the "make clean" it says "aha, here's a nice up-to-date object file, I'll use that" and you don't get a freshly-compiled version. Touching the sources should also work, and is a little quicker. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC http://www.holdenweb.com/ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
