Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 2/2] build: fix python in VPATH build

Match the fact that docs/Makefile.am dumps libvirt-api.xml in the

Hi Eric,
Does this fix a failure or just ensure that we use more
up to date .xml files?
With just your cfg.mk patch, I ran a srcdir ./autogen.sh && make distclean
followed by "make check syntax-check" from a non-srcdir build dir.
It succeeded.
The only potential down-side I see is that this requires running Python
(though only in a VPATH build?), to recreate a distributed file that is
available in $(srcdir).
