2011-07-05Revert "build: collapse all Makefile.am files into a single non-recursive one."Gaetan Nadon1-0/+27
This reverts commit 39afe69ad7d2258d4043044d1283bd6e311e48da. 1. For such a small module, the build time improvement is most likely negligible. At least, I'd like to see some timings proving it's worthiness before seeing the patch go back in. 2. This kind of change would need a thorough review. The need to operate the build from a single toplevel Makefile is a significant change. The two most noticeable issues for me are that collapsing all the Makefiles could easily cause namespacing issues with the variables, and operating on files outside the current directory can introduce subtle bugs. I feel that the non-recursive style is generally less robust than the standard recursive make scheme. 3. It's unlike all the other X.org modules. This isn't a showstopper for me, but the recursive style is well understood here and you've beaten all the modules into a consistent format that makes build bugs unique to specific modules less likely. Acked-by: Dan Nicholson <dbn.lists@gmail.com> To give a concrete example for #3 above, the 175 man pages are much easier maintained using a very similar makefile in the man directory of all X.Org module. The cost of maintaining a single makefile is much higher. Every target in the makefile has to be reviewed and tested when changes are made. Not everyone has the all the skills to handle widely different targets such as man pages, DocBook/XML, librairies, C code, distribution hooks, and so on.

2011-05-15build: collapse all Makefile.am files into a single non-recursive one.Diego Elio Pettenò1-27/+0
With this change, the whole of the build is done non-recursively in the top-level Makefile.am. This reduces the amount of overhead due to recursing into directories only to build one file. Signed-off-by: Diego Elio Pettenò <flameeyes@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Brill <egore911@egore911.de>

2010-06-01config: fdi file must be installed in $(datadir)/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdpartyGaetan Nadon1-3/+4
Applies to server with no sysconfigdir Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>
2010-05-31config: 50-synaptics.conf must be unconditionally distributedGaetan Nadon1-5/+3
A file may or may not be installed based on a particular system configuration, but it must always be distributed in the tarball so the package contains the complete source code. Signed-off-by: Gaetan Nadon <memsize@videotron.ca>

2010-04-16Add 50-synaptics.conf snippet.Peter Hutterer3-0/+65
If the server exports the sysconfigdir variable, install the 50-synaptics.conf snippet in the directory provided. This patch also moves the fdi file from fdi/ into the new conf/ subdir to have a single location for all config files.
