On mingw, configure sets the name of the lxc symfile to libvirt_lxc.defs rather than libvirt_lxc.syms. But tarballs must be arch-independent, regardless of the configure options used for the tree where we ran 'make dist'. This led to the following failure in autobuild.sh: CCLD libvirt-lxc.la CCLD libvirt-qemu.la /usr/lib64/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/4.7.2/../../../../i686-w64-mingw32/bin/ld: cannot find libvirt_lxc.def: No such file or directory collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [libvirt-lxc.la] Error 1 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... We were already doing the right thing with libvirt_qemu.syms. * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Don't ship a built file which depends on configure for its final name.
