Subject: maintainer-makefile: Fix syntax-check rules wrt README.
X-Git-Tag: v1.0~769
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2b63182ece42f65f1ee6b5290fad2901fb7dbe77;p=thirdparty%2Fgnulib.git

maintainer-makefile: Fix syntax-check rules wrt README.

* top/maint.mk (sc_readme_link_install): Change the value of the
variable in_vc_files to contain a pattern for the README file.
(sc_readme_link_copying): Likewise.
Previously, the above rules always passed, because the generated
list of files was empty.  Bug introduced when adding the rules
in commit 53b4bf3018.
