Re: [swarm-hackers] Can somebody declare a CVS "version" that works?

I think there is a little packaging mistake.  "java/kawa-1.6.70.jar" is 
missing.
With the newer swarm-2.2.5 test package, I go

$ mkdir builddir
$ cd builddir

$ JAVAC=jikes ../configure --prefix=/opt/packages 
--libdir=/opt/packages/lib --with-defaultdir=/usr 
--with-jdkdir=/home/pauljohn/LinuxDownloads/src/jdk1.6.0_07 
--enable-onelib --enable-subdirs --with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.4 
--with-tk=/usr/lib/tk8.4 > build-config.txt 2>&1
during make, I get this:

Issued 1 system warning:

I copy the kawa-1.6.7.jar from the CVS swarm and after that  build will 
proceed.
Right?

While I'm on the packing topic, here's a question that is brought to the 
forefront by my effort to understand Debian packaging.  This has really 
been a struggle for me.  Debian seems to lean heavily on "make 
distclean" to return a source directory back to its original state.  It 
*appears* to me that a "make distclean" in swarm-2.2.4 does not erase 
some generated files.   In jackson aquino's debian packaging, one of the 
hassles he is working around is cleaning those up before building.  I 
think the files I noticed were config.sub  config.guess.  Can those be 
put into Makefile.am in the "maintainer-clean" list?
