dh_make puts this into the debian/rules clean target:
-$(MAKE) distclean
-test -r /usr/share/misc/config.sub && \
cp -f /usr/share/misc/config.sub config.sub
-test -r /usr/share/misc/config.guess && \
cp -f /usr/share/misc/config.guess config.guess
first of all, am i right in assuming (empirically) that a leading
hyphen causes make not to fail if the command exits with non-zero?
and second, what are these /usr/share/misc/config.* files, and why are
they precopied to a package. i don't have those files on my system,
and i noticed no problems. are they there to speed up the configure
run by giving some answers that are global to the systems?
