-Subject: [PATCH] Ticket #4070: misc/Makefile.am: install mc.lib only once.
-
-Before the change mc.lib was installed twice due to being
-in two _DATA variables:
-
-dist_pkgdata_DATA = \
-        mc.lib
-
-pkgdata_DATA = \
-        $(dist_pkgdata_DATA) \
-        $(PKGDATA_OUT)
-
-This causes occasional install failures when two parallel
-`/usr/bin/install` calls race in installing the file:
-
-$ make -j20 DESTDIR=/var/tmp/portage/app-misc/mc-4.8.24/image install
-...
- /usr/lib/portage/python3.6/ebuild-helpers/xattr/install \
-    -c -m 644 mc.lib '/var/tmp/portage/app-misc/mc-4.8.24/image/usr/share/mc'
- /usr/lib/portage/python3.6/ebuild-helpers/xattr/install \
-    -c -m 644 mc.lib mc.charsets '/var/tmp/portage/app-misc/mc-4.8.24/image/usr/share/mc'
-...
- /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file
-   '/var/tmp/portage/app-misc/mc-4.8.24/image/usr/share/mc/mc.lib': File exists
-
-After the change mc.lib is present only in dist_pkgdata_DATA.
