As a newcomer I hesitate to report as a bug what may be a simple mistake
or misunderstanding by me.

(Re)buidling Seamonkey 2.0 rc2 I find that 'make clean' deletes
/rec/comm-central/mozilla/build/automationutils.py and a subsequent
build fails until I have laboriously restored the program from somewhere.

This seems to be a unreported bug or is it. Appreciate any comments.
Enno.

Looks expected to me: automation.py.in is the actual source file.

You're making an in-place (= no object directory) build, aren't you?

File a bug...

There's automation.py.in but also automationutils.py in the source.

Isn't :luser now using :ted, or am I thinking of IRC?
