-Subject: [PATCH] libcap/Makefile: don't overwrite 'empty' when generating
- loader.txt
-
-objcopy takes an input file and an output file as arguments. If the
-output file is left out, the input file will be overwritten.
-
-Since the objcopy command used to generate loader.txt only does a
-dump-section and no filtering, in practice there is no change to empty.
-However, as a side-effect, its timestamp is updated. The timestamp of
-empty and of loader.txt will be more or less the same; however,
-loader.txt is closed just before the output file is closed, so it's
-possible that the timestamp of loader.txt is just a little bit earlier.
-If this happens, it causes loader.txt to be rebuilt later, which in turn
-causes a number of other object files to be rebuilt.
-
-Usually that's harmless, but it sometimes causes the rebuild to happen
-during 'make install'. This is particularly annoying if 'make install'
-is done as root, since loader.txt becomes owned by root in that case.
-
-Fix this by specifying a harmless output file: /dev/null.
-
-While we're at it, take in an upstream change that removes the redundant
-redirect.
