make bootstrap fails on master

make bootstrap fails on master

[Artur Malabarba]

Running make bootstrap on Arch Linux gives me a single line of output:

make: *** No rule to make target 'src/lisp.mk', needed by 'Makefile'.  Stop.

Actually, forget bootstrap. I can't even run make clean (same error).

Is this a fresh clone? And which version?

Ok, if I do a clean clone to another directory then `make` works fine
again. But the problematic directory was exactly on origin/master, so
I think this means the problem was being caused by a gitignored file?

Does anyone know what could have triggered this problem?

I would imagine it was a file that was changed somehow:

`git status`: will show details on what files have been modified/deleted/etc.
`git diff`: will show the diff on the modified files
`git clean -ndx`: will display files that would be deleted by a
.gitignore (`-n` is `--dry-run` so it doesn't act upon it.)

Would be interesting to see the output. :-)

The problem is fixed now, but just for the record, here are the outputs.

git status is perfectly clean, the repo is in sync with origin/master.

This shows a long list of files, mostly ".o" and ".elc". Doesn't show
anything like "src/lisp".

Aha! Found it!

Commit `46ea93792da1db916305d50272c6465a6dde7c25` states:

"* src/lisp.mk: Remove from repository and generate at build-time."

So a `./autogen.sh && ./configure` should fix it, or (as you have
done) simply reclone the repo, or even run `git clean -fdx`.
