Hi Simon,
thanks for cleaning up the fallout of my two rename patches.
I've reproduced the issue:
- did in-tree build
- ran make distclean
- saw git status mention gdb/gdb-gdb.gdb as deleted
The fix LGTM.
Approved-By: Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>
FWIW, I found that a further cleanup related to the rename was needed in
the all target (
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2026-September/230054.html ).
Thanks,
- Tom
