Default build target fails about graudit HOT 7 CLOSED

Looks like make without an argument defaults to make dist which is only used to make the .tgz files from the repo. It might make more sense to have a different default action, but for now you should be able to work around it using ./configure and make install

It will work for now but I'm trying to package graudit for Archlinux, this means that compilation and installation would ideally be performed in different steps.

Thanks for your time.

It's a shell script, there is no compilation. The only reason for ./configure is to allow setting the lib and bin dirs.

You're right there's no compilation "per se" but there is file generation and other operations...
If I were you I would avoid using the configure script by making use of the "standard" DESTIR variable among others in the makefile.

That should simplify the "compiation" by avoiding the use of a configuration script and by simplifying the Makefile.

+1. It would help to have a clean ebuild for Pentoo Linux as well.

I'll make this change in the next update
