can gcc regenerate src/Makefile.in before the build?
Hello.
gcc-7 build process may recreate src/Makefile.in from src/Makefile.def
and src/Makefile.tpl with something like
# cd src && autogen Makefile.def
right after patch application.
This would drop two thousand lines of noise in
debian/patches/bootstrap-no-unneeded-libs.diff
debian/patches/gdc-libphobos-build].diff
plus a bit more in the Ada patches.
I see no counterpart.
- Gcc-7 already Build-Depends: autogen for unrelated reasons.
- The generation takes less than a second on my machine.
