FYI:
Last night I had some serious problems starting up postgresql after
recompiling it after a gmake clean.
A gmake cleandist was needed to get me a compiled version that
would startup properly, otherwise I'd get an error about being
unable to get my shared memory (no space on device).
The exact sequence of events was:
had an already compiled 7.0.
did a cvsup, then cvs up
gmake clean; rm config.cache
configure --enable-debug --enable-cassert
gmake; gmake install
*poof*
doing a "gmake cleandist" then repeating the steps above fixed it.
I'm not a big autoconf user (in fact i'm pretty clueless about it :) )
but shouldn't the 'clean' target be safe?
thanks,
