| The policy of Fedora is to regenerate generated files in the source code of a package. python3.spec runs "autoconf" and "autoheader" to regenerate configure and pyconfig.h. IMHO it would be good to have such recipe upstream, something like "make regen-all". I'm not sure if we can include it in "make regen-all". Currently, the main mandatory Linux job on Travis CI runs "make regen-all" and then ensure that no file has been modified. Problem: configure changes depending on the autoconf version, and usually a Linux distribution only includes a single autoconf version... That's why you may have noticed the "rpath dance" in the generated configure script... Depending on the autoconf version, you get rpath or not...

| Most developers seem to be used to "autoconf && autoheader", so it's not obvious that "make regen-configure" would benefit to anyone. I just close the issue. |
