I had thought I must have made that release manually, but indeed it was probably the fault of the root Makefile. Corrected it now to "$(RM) -r". So maybe this issue can really be called "fixed", although there is no guaranty that the root Makefile is used for making a release... Thanks Rafael and Carnë.

You have a Makefile recipe to make releases which was added to the repository before the last release and has the instructions to remove autom4te.cache

http://hg.code.sf.net/p/octave/parallel/file/9c27fea99a83/Makefile#l48

so something weird must be happening. I think because it's a directory, it should be "$(RM) -r"

Thanks for the reminder, but this was just a random mistake, I normally delete this directory. There is no 'fixing' in the sense that it can't happen again. This report can be closed.

The tarball for version 3.1.0 of the parallel package contains an extraneous autom4te.cache directory:


$ tar tfvz parallel-3.1.0.tar.gz | grep autom4te.cache
drwxr-sr-x olaf/olaf         0 2016-04-28 10:27 parallel-3.1.0/src/autom4te.cache/

-rw-r--r-- olaf/olaf      7710 2016-04-28 10:27 parallel-3.1.0/src/autom4te.cache/traces.0


Please, remove it in the next release of the package.
