When I build with LC_ALL=C in my environment,
the all-local rule generates po/POTFILES.in that
is sorted differently from the on that is checked in:

If we generate that file so that sort always uses the C locale, then,
this type of difference will not arise. Here's the patch to fix the
rule as well as to reflect the change in the generated file:

Subject: [PATCH] build: avoid locale-specific changes in generated, VC'd file
* Makefile.am (all-local): Use LC_ALL=C to sort in C locale.
* po/POTFILES.in: Regenerate.
This is an end-user testing tool, designed to test basic functionality
of libguestfs/qemu/kernel combination on the end-user's final host
machine.
It does not perform a thorough test, but should be enough to find
most booting issues.
Also this is intended to be used when reporting bugs.
This script is just a simpler way to cat a file from a VM. It
is otherwise equivalent to using guestfish.
virt-cat someguest /etc/fstab
virt-cat someguest /var/log/messages | tail
All Perl strings are now marked as translatable using __"string"
or __x("string {placeholder}", placeholder => $_). Perl strings
now get copied to the PO files.
The po/POTFILES.in file is now updated automagically whenever we
add new *.c, *.pl or *.pm files into the repository.
Hi Rich,
automake's policy on what to remove via "make clean" is reasonable:
if running build rules creates it, then "make clean" can and should remove it.
However, even if build rules happen
to create backup files, please remove only the specific ones
they can create, not all of the ones in a directory. Just in case
someone relies on those and expect them to hang around...
