Indeed. The correct way is to move these files to $(builddir) (which is always writable) and quit trying to ship them in the tarball - they only need to exist for the duration of the test, so the tarball only needs rules on how to generate the files into $(builddir) at the start of the test. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
