Well, same request applies:
LINKIT_y = ln -f -s $(DEST_BIN)/$(VIMTARGET) $(DESTDIR)/usr/bin/vi
LINKIT_n = @:
LINKIT_ = $(LINKIT_n)
LINKIT = $(LINKIT_$(LINK_TO_VI))
Can we do that instead? I'm trying to have a Makefile (and eventually
configure.in) that builds with the fewest numbers of patches applied.
We're trying to get it into AstLinux 0.5 trunk, but want to be able to
use it without having to apply any patches... since the way AstLinux is
built is by scripts that pull down source tarballs and then build them
according to prepackaged directions. Updating version numbers is a lot
easier than updating patches...
Thanks,
