Subject: libxc/Makefile's VPATH issue
Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2008 11:42:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080609104237.GH4264@implementation.uk.xensource.com> (raw)

Hello,

c/s 17138 introduced the use of VPATH instead of symlinks to access to
libelf files.  However, that not only provides access to .c files, but
also to .o files.  That means that if one compiles the hypervisor before
the tools, libxenguest.a contains .o files intended to the hypervisor,
containing references to printk, etc. and thus is unusable.

Is there a good reason against reverting to symlinks, or maybe another
way to achieve the same?

Samuel
