bug#39985: feature/native-comp; make clean broken

[Andrea Corallo]

Hi all,

I've been signaled that ~make clean~ does not work on the
feature/native-comp branch.

This is due to the fact that now .eln files are generated into
subdirectories.

Ex: a file ~.../foo.el~ compiles into
~.../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-12383a81d4f33a87/foo.eln~.

The trouble is that the build system has no knowlege of
`system-configuration' therefore it's not easy to modify it to remove
all of these folders.

One option would be to add another prefix like compiling ~foo.el~ into:

~.../eln-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-12383a81d4f33a87/foo.eln~

and have the Makefile removing recursively all eln-* folders.

I'm not sure this is the best way to handle this but is the only idea
I've got so far.

bug#39985:

[Andrea Corallo]

Hi all,

I looked a bit into it.

I think the report was inaccurate and make clean was already working
similarly as it does in the regular configuration (keep all .elc and all
.eln).

What was broken was the behaviour of make bootstrap-clean reflecting
then on make bootstrap.

I believe dab8dd836c does fix this so unless something comes up I think
this bug can be closed.
