Description Andrea Pescetti 2017-10-03 22:01:39 UTC

The 4.1.4-RC4 source package contains an unneeded file named
aoo-4.1.4/main/config.out
(apparently a clone of config.log)

The file is harmless so this is not a blocker at all, but the cleanup from https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126605 should be extended to cover this if this is an expected byproduct of the current process.

Comment 1 Andrea Pescetti 2017-10-14 16:22:17 UTC

The 4.1.4-RC5 source package contains another extra file.

aoo-4.1.4/main/clog
aoo-4.1.4/main/config.out

It remains to be seen whether these were simply local files created manually by the developer who built the source package or are generated by our current tools/processes.

In any case, this is not a blocker and the content is not problematic (a changelog and a config log).

Comment 2 Andrea Pescetti 2017-12-21 22:18:18 UTC

The 4.1.5-RC1 source package adds to the list of "useless local files that got packaged in the source release" the following:

aoo-4.1.5/main/build_aoo64bit_on_macos.sh
aoo-4.1.5/main/clean

Comment 3 oooforum (fr) 2018-04-21 08:36:38 UTC

4.1.5 is available now so can we close it?

Comment 4 Andrea Pescetti 2018-04-22 15:44:36 UTC

We can't close this as the cleanup is not happening yet: all extra files are still there and we need to add them to the blacklist.

Comment 5 Andrea Pescetti 2018-11-08 21:49:09 UTC

The 4.1.6-RC1 source package does not contain "clog" but it contains yet another extra file:

aoo-4.1.6/main/Makefile

which should still belong to the "local" files generated on the developer machine.
