install: extra $GISBASE/etc/wxpython/scripts/Makefile?

[hamish]

Hi,

I notice that $GISBASE/etc/wxpython/scripts/Makefile gets installed.

any reason to keep that?

Replying to hamish:

I notice that $GISBASE/etc/wxpython/scripts/Makefile gets installed.

gui/wxpython/Makefile does:

SRCFILES := $(wildcard compat/* icons/*.* scripts/* xml/*) \

Note that gui/wxpython/scripts/Makefile is redundant as gui/wxpython/Makefile never recurses into the scripts directory, so scripts/Makefile won't be used unless the user "make"s that directory manually.

Also, many of those "*" wildcards could (and should) be changed to "*.py" to avoid installing cruft such as editor backup files.

'*' changed to '*.py' for dirs which only have *.py in them done in trunk and relbr6 with r56744,5, maybe expand to *.py *.html later.

minimal patch to take care of scripts/*.py done in relbr64 with r56757. will backport the rest after the freeze.

I'm just looking to dist... after compilation not the result of make install but the file (etc/wxpython/scripts/Makefile or now /gui/wxpython/scripts/Makefile) is no longer there.

However there are Makefiles in directories of g.gui.* modules:

$ cd dist...
$ find . -name "*Makefile*"
./gui/wxpython/psmap/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/animation/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/dbmgr/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/tplot/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/rlisetup/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/gmodeler/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/mapswipe/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/timeline/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/iclass/Makefile
./gui/wxpython/vdigit/Makefile

Do we have some bad Makefile template somewhere?
