Either it should always be generated (and not part of the tarball), or we need to audit the dependencies to make sure that it does not need rebuilding when used from a pristine tarball. I'll try to take a look into this one later this week (my past experience with dist bugs like this is that they take a good chunk of dedicated time on my part to get to a real root cause). > > $ git revert 1bfb47dfe61c3cf9a716db072cbe22f26e980081 > [master f5a9a90] Revert "Make ESX & Hyper-V code generator safe with parallel > builds" So that means that our conversion to using a stamp file is the real culprit. It may be as simple as just making sure the stamp file is also part of the tarball.
