Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v4 00/20] cleanup current build system

As preparation to switch to Meson there are some things that needs be cleaned up to make the conversion easier. The important thing in Meson is that there is a strict separation between source and build directory and the distributed tarball by default contains only files tracked by git with a possibility to write a script which would add some other sources into the tarball. Regardless of the adoption of Meson these patches improve our current build system to fully support VPATH builds. Changes in v2: - some patches from v1 are pushed now - added a patch to mandate build dir != src dir - added a patch to cleanup .gitignore - added patches to fix sc_po_check - improved some patches from v1 Changes in v3: - python-zanata-client is the tool our Makefile uses Pavel Hrdina (20): build: mandate use of a build dir != src dir .gitignore: cleanup old and obsolete ignores syntax-check.mk: fix sc_po_check rule syntax-check.mk: cleanup sc_po_check dependencies syntax-check.mk: cleanup generated_files list for sc_po_check po: generate files into build directory po: rewrite the way how we generate files po: README.md: add a note about which Zanata client is required remote: unify rpc server dispatch generated files src: generate source files into build directory src: access: generate source files into build directory src: admin: generate source files into build directory src: esx: generate source files into build directory src: hyperv: generate source files into build directory src: locking: generate source files into build directory src: logging: generate source files into build directory src: lxc: generate source files into build directory src: remote: generate source files into build directory src: stop distributing generated source files tools: stop distributing generated source files .gitignore | 276 ++------------------- .travis.yml | 3 +- README-hacking | 11 +- README.md | 11 +- bootstrap.conf | 6 + build-aux/syntax-check.mk | 47 ++-- configure.ac | 6 + docs/compiling.html.in | 10 +- docs/windows.html.in | 3 +- libvirt.spec.in | 10 +- po/Makefile.am | 45 ++-- po/POTFILES | 320 ------------------------- po/POTFILES.in | 356 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ po/README.md | 3 + src/Makefile.am | 13 +- src/access/Makefile.inc.am | 17 +- src/admin/Makefile.inc.am | 24 +- src/bhyve/Makefile.inc.am | 1 + src/esx/Makefile.inc.am | 9 +- src/esx/esx_vi_generator.py | 11 +- src/hyperv/Makefile.inc.am | 9 +- src/hyperv/hyperv_wmi_generator.py | 11 +- src/interface/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/libxl/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/locking/Makefile.inc.am | 16 +- src/logging/Makefile.inc.am | 18 +- src/lxc/Makefile.inc.am | 36 ++- src/network/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/node_device/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/nwfilter/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/qemu/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/remote/Makefile.inc.am | 45 ++-- src/remote/remote_daemon_dispatch.c | 4 +- src/rpc/Makefile.inc.am | 8 +- src/secret/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/storage/Makefile.inc.am | 2 + src/util/Makefile.inc.am | 6 +- src/vbox/Makefile.inc.am | 1 + src/vz/Makefile.inc.am | 1 + tests/Makefile.am | 4 + tools/Makefile.am | 1 - 41 files changed, 636 insertions(+), 722 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 po/POTFILES create mode 100644 po/POTFILES.in
