Re: [gpsd-users] Scons Dist

[Robert Norris]

Lee, you could try amending the SConstruct file like this to avoid needing the 
generated manpages in the tarball. e.g.

diff --git a/SConstruct b/SConstruct
index b6606f52..163ef03c 100644
--- a/SConstruct
+++ b/SConstruct
@@ -2281,7 +2281,8 @@ if os.path.exists("gpsd.c") and 
os.path.exists(".gitignore"):
     if ".gitignore" in distfiles:
         distfiles.remove(".gitignore")
     distfiles += generated_sources
-    distfiles += base_manpages.keys() + python_manpages.keys()
+    if env['manbuild']:
+        distfiles += base_manpages.keys() + python_manpages.keys()
     distfiles.remove("gpsd.h")
     if "packaging/rpm/gpsd.spec" not in distfiles:
         distfiles.append("packaging/rpm/gpsd.spec")

Or indeed just comment out that line.

HTH.
