   Priority:  major     |   Milestone:  sage-4.4.3 
  Component:  build     |    Keywords:  beginner   
     Author:            |    Upstream:  N/A

------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 When one build sage, the modification times of the following 3 files are
 changed.

 {{{
 ./README.txt
 ./COPYING.txt
 ./sage-README-osx.txt
 }}}

 Whilst not a major problem in itself, it does mean that 'make distclean'
 does not return the source tree to its original state.

 If one runs
 {{{
 $ 'make distclean'
 $ find . -mtime -2
 }}}
 it will list all files modified in the last two days. Those files should
 not modified but they are. Some files created in the build process are not
 being removed, but they should be. That will be the subject of another
 ticket.
