Re: Build trivially (but permanently) broken

["T.V Raman" <raman@google.com>]

Will try that. I have no idea what created the -.o file.

Here is the shell script I use to pull and build:
#!/bin/sh
#build it
git reset --hard
git pull --rebase
./configure --enable-silent-rules  --prefix=/usr/local \
--with-modules --with-mailutils --without-compress-install  --with-x-toolkit=lucid

make -j    V=0 bootstrap
make -j    V=0
#sudo make -j    install
