504239 - Remove a useless chunk of a likely-unused script for a barely-supported configuration

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Back in the day of srcdir builds, clean-config.sh was probably pretty handy: no need to even have a mozconfig findable, just fire it off from $topsrcdir and it would remove all makefiles (that were produced by all-makefiles, anyway) and configure output.

Now, with srcdir support amounting to "we won't automatically wontfix a bug just because it only happens with srcdir builds" it probably doesn't see much, if any, use, but it's still pointless to have it looking for a file which hasn't existed since bug 381902 landed two years ago as a sign that it needs to remove mailnews makefiles when mailnews doesn't exist in mozilla-central.

(And yes, I'm afraid it would amuse me if the timing works out so this is the 500th bug I've fixed. Triviality a speciality.)

You know, if you removed this whole script and the cleansrcdir target, I bet nobody would notice.
