target in the Makefile, but near as I can tell it doesn't do anything.To me it looks like the Debian building process got moved into
tools/release.lisp
and not restored when I rolled back to using the shell andMakefile
(I was never able to get the lisp scripting code to work reliably for me, nor could I figure out how to debug it).I can see if I can de-lisp it for the moment and put it back in the top level
Makefile
.
I had a shot at it, and I don't have a great understanding of how to write a Makefile. In the lisp code for the rule there's a bit of code that checks for a clean working directory that I have not been able to replicate (stuck dealing with the fact that a bash string has an extra space at the end (🤷🏻). I will commit this into a merge request, but it is definitely a work in progress. Maybe someone else can figure it out.
