For cases like this, we generally add a python script that translates the build files into something Blueprint understands, and rerun it each time we import into the project. Alternatively, Blueprint efficiently supports globbing for sources, so if all the source files are always listed in Makefile.sources (which seems to be true in our copy of libdrm except for intel/test_decode.c) then we could use globs and ignore the makefiles, possibly manually excluding a few files. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
