[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] Fix 'make distclean'

I found the problem about help_mp.h not being deleted by "make
distclean" under Windows.
When mplayer.exe is run from the svn root directory, it creates a
sub-directory called "mplayer". Please note that if mplayer.exe is
executed from MSYS environment it doesn't create the mplayer sub
directory for some reason, but when executed from windows shell, it
does. Then when "make distclean" is executed, there is the following
line:
rm -f mplayer mencoder
but since "mplayer" is actually a subdirectory (and the "rm" is
supposed to delete the executable *file* mplayer, as it is called in
UNIX), the command fails:
rm -f mplayer mencoder
rm: `mplayer' is a directory
make: *** [clean] Error 1
And the further clean commands after it are not executed, which
includes the following one (which deletes help_mp.h):
rm -f configure.log config.mak config.h codecs.conf.h help_mp.h \
version.h vidix/pci_dev_ids.c vidix/pci_ids.h
vidix/pci_names.c vidix
/pci_names.h vidix/pci_vendors.h \
codec-cfg cpuinfo TAGS tags
The fix is simple. Change
rm -f mplayer mencoder
to:
rm -rf mplayer mencoder
This ensures that make distclean cleans both the executable mplayer
and the sub directory mplayer, so the command always succeeds.
I attach the patch.
