Update of bug #11478 (project wesnoth):
Open/Closed: Closed => Open
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #3:
After getting burnt by the unusual behavior of the 'install' target again,
I'd like to suggest renaming and documenting the behavior of the current
'install' target and make a new one such that:
scons all
scons install
does the same thing as
scons all install
does the same thing as
scons install
I noticed today that doing:
scons all install
doesn't actually install anything if nothing was previously built.
This suggests that for the things that 'install' decides to install, it
doesn't check if they are up to date with the potential result that it isn't
hard to install things that were built with different (possibly incompatible)
versions of the source.
Documentation would be useful for what the 'install' target (hopefully
renamed) does when other targets are also specified especially when some
targets were initially missing but are being built, targets are being updated
(does it install the previous or new version) and what happens with targets
that are built but not up to date.
