[vlc-devel] Re: Extras/contrib bootstrap error?

[Mark Moriarty]

Weird, as usual.
I ended up changing the > config.mak to a >> config.mak, and it cleared OK.
I did the same with distro.mak, at line 55 (made it a >> instead of a >).
Doing that the bootstrap went fine.  
I then restored bootstrap (changed >> back to >), deleted the two .mak
files, reran bootstrap and it worked OK.
For some reason it just wasn't happy with the brand new trunk, needed that
little "magic" step.
