How about putting these explanations about the .elc files in "Makefile.in" (together with the other comments)? > We would have to arrange the Lisp sources in a very different way to > dependency tracking to be practical. > > So instead people who pull Emacs have to say "make bootstrap" once in a > while.

It seems that "make boostrap" will do a rebuild with a default configure, thus shouldn't be used if one needs configure options (I find a configure variable impractical due to quoting and working poorly with various shell advanced features). I suppose that "make maintainer-clean" or "make extraclean" should be sufficient. -- Vincent Lefèvre - Web: 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
