Subject: Avoid new "make distcheck" failure, now that VPATH has GNUmakefile.
X-Git-Tag: v6.11~96
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c7d33788e02259c43bfe33815626018be88127a7;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

Avoid new "make distcheck" failure, now that VPATH has GNUmakefile.

* GNUmakefile: Remove commands to create ".version".
They were unnecessary, and caused creation of a newer .version
file in a VPATH build, which in turn caused creation of updated
man/*.1 files reflecting the newer time stamp on .version.
Those *.1 files were not removed (since they're distributed), and
the fact that they remained after "distclean" triggered the failure.
