Subject: Configuring GCC 10.3 on PPC Mac OS X 10.4.11/Tiger for build reveals problems when removing relics
Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2022 11:36:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ACB45A81-3901-4B52-9FB9-5328381A5B5A@Web.DE> (raw)

Hello!

On Mac OS X/macOS configure scripts leave conftest.dSYM subdirectories behind, created by dsymutil:

	checking for build system preprocessor... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory
	checking for build system executable suffix... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory
	checking whether build system compiler is ANSI... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory
	checking for build system compiler math library... rm: conftest.dSYM: is a directory

Building GCC 10.3 with MacPorts the configure scripts produce 178 such reports (and more than 11,000 checking lines without complaint). (The relation is worse when building smaller software packages.)

Is it possible to replace the simple "rm" with "rm -r", at least on darwin, the macOS/Mac OS X? Or create a special macro to be used when dsymutil gets involved?
