Bug ID: 361983
Summary: building KNSBackend writes files to source directory
Product: Discover
Version: 5.6.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: silh...@gmail.com
When building libdiscover (KNSBackend in particular) the files
${backend}.desktop and ${backend}-categories.xml are overwritten inside the
source directory.
Is there a reason to keep these files in git, although they are generated?
I found out because cmake complained:
Error renaming from
"/scratch/discover-build/libdiscover/backends/KNSBackend/knscomic-backend.desktop"
to
"/home/carlo/discover/libdiscover/backends/KNSBackend/knscomic-backend.desktop":
Invalid cross-device link
/home and /scratch have different muont points, and rename works only on the
same volume.
If this behavior must be maintained, consider using
cmake -E copy
instead of
cmake -E rename
in libdiscover/backends/KNSBackend/CMakeLists.txt which works across different
volumes.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. cmake
2. make
