$ type -p mplayer
/usr/local/bin/mplayer

$ pwd
/home/now3d/mplayer/main
$ ./mplayer
MPlayer dev-CVS-040828-23:58-3.2 (C) 2000-2004 MPlayer Team

The fault is because version.sh does not called everytime ./configure is
run. So when I do:

cvs update -d
./configure
make

it will still be using the old version.h !

Unless I do "make distclean", which clears all the crud and makes me
completely rebuild.

Is there a reason configure does not update the version.h timestamp?
Would a patch be accepted to update version.h when configure is run?

Kind regards

JG
