Subject: [PATCH] adjust outputmakefile rule
Date: Wed, 26 Apr 2006 15:56:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <444F9814.76E4.0078.0@novell.com> (raw)

Change the conditional of the outputmakefile rule to be evaluated entirely
in make, and to not touch the generated makefile when e.g. running
'make install' as root while the build was done as non-root. Also adjust
the comment describing this.
