Changes in v3:
- remove bin blobs, now they are generated in install step
This isn't good in general. Usually all installed files are generated in the normal make step, and make-install only copies them. There are a few reasons:
- Invoking a random program as root is a security risk.
- This may create a file by root in the working directory, and either it's not always possible (e.g. on NFS) or it may be left undeletable after make install.
Right, that is good point indeed.
So what is your suggestion then?
Just put the normal make rule and generate it at the normal make step (only when needed).
