While it is perfectly reasonable avoiding that on svn, providing swig stuff for a well-tested reference swig version would help a lot distributions. Swig upgrades are generally done system-wide and out of control of packagers, and compatibility issues (often subtle) can raise from time to time. At the same time, sometimes regeneration has to be forced occasionally. Other softwares (e.g. gdal) have a suitable .PHONY target to force regeneration of swig stuff on demand in dist tarballs. That would help a lot. ",enhancement,closed,normal,6.4.0,Python ctypes,svn-trunk,wontfix,,,Unspecified,All
