Configuring GDB for release
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GDB should be released after doing "config.gdb none" in the top level
|
||||||
|
directory. This will leave a makefile there, but no tm- or xm- files.
|
||||||
|
The makefile is needed, for example, for "make gdb.tar.Z"... If you
|
||||||
|
have tm- or xm-files in the main source directory, C's include rules
|
||||||
|
cause them to be used in preference to tm- and xm-files in the
|
||||||
|
subdirectories where the user will actually configure and build the
|
||||||
|
binaries.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"config.gdb none" is also a good way to rebuild the top level Makefile
|
||||||
|
after changing Makefile.dist, alldeps.mak, etc.

The README file
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Check the README file, it often has useful information that does not
|
||||||
|
appear anywhere else in the directory.
