Comment #6 on issue 2210 by address@hidden: Patch: Build: Top-level  
GNUmakefile
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2210

I think I'm having some problems relating to this.  If I run this:

rm -f -r build
sh autogen.sh --noconfigure
mkdir -p build
cd build
../configure

I get:

Source directory already configured.  Please clean the source directory

     make -C /home/phil/lilypond-git distclean

and rerun configure.

This comes from

        if test -f $srcdir/GNUmakefile; then

in configure.  So it looks like it assumes that the presence of a file  
called GNUmakefile in topdir stops configur from completing properly.  If I  
rename GNUmakefile it runs as expected - albeit without a GNUmakefile at  
all in the git directory - even after running make.

Please advise (running with renamed GNUmakefile.old at present).
