Not unless you build from the git-repo, no. Snapshots will fail to set the "proper" version every time, because the GIT-VERSION-FILE: is a forced target and even if git-describe is present it will find neither tags nor HEAD. I have no solution to this, apart from rewriting the Makefile on the fly whenever a release tarball is created. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231
