Without a target that truly cleans any build artifacts over what is recorded in the commit to replace "make distclean", this is a regression. It seems people use "make reallyclean" or something for that, perhaps? > Signed-off-by: Jonas 'Sortie' Termansen <sortie@maxsi.org> > --- > Makefile | 1 - > 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile > index 6f5986b66e..c488b914a0 100644 > --- a/Makefile > +++ b/Makefile > @@ -3723,7 +3723,6 @@ dist-doc: git$X > ### Cleaning rules > > distclean: clean > - $(RM) configure > $(RM) config.log config.status config.cache > $(RM) config.mak.autogen config.mak.append > $(RM) -r autom4te.cache

make distclean conventionally restores the extracted release tarball to its original distributed contents by cleaning the source code for distribution. However, the configure script is part of the distribution and should not be removed. This behavior is creating problems on my package infrastructure where configure-based packages have make distclean run afterwards and then the subsequent git build fails.
