Description

Building GRASS support in QGIS is driving me nuts.
Part of the problem was "make clean" failing to clean built GRASS support:

$ make clean
$ find . -type f | xargs grep 'Revision: 37101'
Binary file ./output/lib/qgis/plugins/libqgisgrass.so.1.8.0 matches
Binary file ./output/lib/qgis/grass/modules/qgis.d.rast matches
Binary file ./output/lib/qgis/grass/modules/qgis.g.info matches
Binary file ./src/providers/grass/CMakeFiles/qgis.d.rast.dir/qgis.d.rast.c.o matches
Binary file ./src/providers/grass/CMakeFiles/qgis.g.info.dir/qgis.g.info.c.o matches
Binary file ./src/providers/grass/CMakeFiles/qgisgrass.dir/qgsgrass.cpp.o matches

All those binary objects won't be rebuilt so would still embed the GRASS version installed at time of previous build.

History

#1 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 13 years ago

For the record, there's more that fails to be cleaned:

$ make clean
$ find . -name '*.o' | wc -l
137

#2 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 13 years ago

Resolution set to invalid

I must have had a dirty source tree, after git-cleaning it make clean seems to leave no dangling objects in build dir.

#3 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 13 years ago

except find output -type f:
output/bin/source_path.txt
output/python/qgis/__init__.py
output/python/qgis/utils.py
output/python/qgis/console.py
output/python/pyspatialite/lib/__init__.py
output/python/pyspatialite/lib/dbapi2.py
output/python/pyspatialite/lib/dump.py

... which should likely not be there.
