Bug#585042: eglibc: please disable manual directory for bootstrap builds

[Hector Oron <zumbi@debian.org>]

Package: eglibc
Severity: wishlist


Hello,

  While trying to bootstrap eglibc headers from source package, I get:

make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/zumbi/tmp/arm-ballonboard-linux-gnueabi/debsrc/eglibc-2.11.1/wctype'
make  subdir=manual -C manual ..=../ install-headers
make: Entering an unknown directory
make: *** manual: El fitxer o directori no existeix.  Stop.
make: Leaving an unknown directory
make[1]: *** [manual/install-headers] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zumbi/tmp/arm-ballonboard-linux-gnueabi/debsrc/eglibc-2.11.1'
make: *** [install-headers] Error 2


  Could you please consider fixing bootstrapping headers and disable manual/ directory builds as it is not shipped along eglibc source?

  The following patch is all it takes + a changelog entry :-)
