+1 for standard behaviour
* John H Palmieri <[email protected]> [2020-04-18 13:51:29]:
Several of us are in favor of requiring that, in order to build Sage, people should have to run "./configure" before running "make". I would further propose that "make" should not itself then run "configure". Some advantages: - This is the same procedure used with many other software packages. - Configuration should be done separately from building, and this makes that separation explicit. - It would help to avoid the issue that ./configure gets run too often; for example, "make distclean" may cause ./configure to run. Some disadvantages: - It adds one step or a least requires the typing of some extra characters - It's not what we're used to doing to build Sage. Ticket #29316 proposes doing at least some of this, and Sage 9.2 seems like a good time to do this. Comments?
