Description Mark D. Roth 2003-09-17 10:24:27 AEST

Under OpenSSH-3.7.1p1, "make clean" fails with the following error when building
outside of the source tree:

roth@coredump:/scratch/os/obj> make clean
rm -f *.o *.a ssh sshd ssh-add ssh-keygen ssh-keyscan ssh-keysign ssh-agent scp
ssh-rand-helper sftp-server sftp logintest config.cache config.log 
rm -f *.out core 
(cd openbsd-compat && gmake clean)
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/services/scratch/os/obj/openbsd-compat'
rm -f *.o *.a core 
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/services/scratch/os/obj/openbsd-compat'
(cd regress && gmake clean)
/bin/sh: regress: does not exist
gmake: *** [clean] Error 1

The problem seems to be that the "regress" subdirectory only exists in the
source tree, not the build tree.

This may also be a problem for the "distclean" target.

Fix "make clean" target

Unfortunately the fix for this did not make the tree before 3.7

Thanks for the report, the patch has been applied to HEAD and the 3.7 branch.
