Each time there is a CVS update I checkout Csound, build it with my
preferred options:
ALSA, OSC, X, suid, shared link, install the binary in my system and
finally go on with the packages to be uploaded to tiscalinet.it. Then
write a mail to csound-unix-dev.
Since these days I'm using Csound on several machines, yesterday I also
downloaded the source tarball back from tiscalinet.it on and installed
it. So I was sure it did its job: for me.
Few hours later Stephen Swaney wrote me that the source tarball missed
rtlinux.c.
In fact there was a rtlinux.c file in the CVS directory but not in the
tarball. I remade the tarball without reconfiguring the tree: nothing.
I deleted config.status (yes, I know...) and entered
./configure
make src-tarball
and this time there was a copy of rtlinux.c.
The resulting srcball has been uploaded.
Since I have no time to check configure.in and the makefiles, I can't
explain what's happened.
I described my action in detail so that you can possibly guess what went
wrong.
