New comment by pullmoll on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/27437#issuecomment-752260795 Comment: After seeing many problems arise when the `98-fixup-gir-path` script modified the Makefiles, I went back to copying the wrong path to the correct one. When I modify the Makefiles this (for some packages) leads to them detecting the modification time being greater than that the configure script and want to re-run autoconf. I already did add `automake` to a few packages but even that sometimes isn't sufficient, and it sometimes leads to the **whole packge** being rebuilt - without `${makejobs}` because it happens in the `do_install()` where there usually is no `${makejobs}` in the make command. So to make a long story short: there is still no good solution for the problem, just inherently poor workarounds.
