When the scummvm repository updates and is pulled locally, 'make' on this repository build dir builds incorrectly #5

What happens is that make says it built the new changes, and then fails at runtime with a missing or incorrect symbol (from the new upstream code).

The obvious solution is, of course, call make clean before if the parent repository had a update.

However, i believe it would be valuable to automate this so that the build make file here can handle this cause automatically, because it makes automation complicated otherwise, or waste a lot of cpu and electricity rebuilding sub-modules it doesn't need by always calling make clean.

I don't know the best way to do this, if it's better to make this a submodule of the main project or what, just reporting.

This might help, although i'm not sure it's the same issue.

I seem to have the same "issue", @i30817 did you ever resolve this to prevent cleaning and rebuilding after pulling?

i30817 commented 2 years ago

No, i didn't manage to solve it. To tell the truth, i didn't even try.

I was too lazy to try your suggestion above - that's why I asked - ahah
