build: directory dist/ seems to contain unneeded files
make install do prepare pharoVM in a dist directory to make it usable (and I assume to package release).
However, the directory contains unexpected files like .c or .cmake. Here, a detailed list
160 .c
133 .h
21 .cmake
18 .so
4 .icns
3 .txt
3 .rc.in
3 .S
2 .st
2 .sh.in
2 .ps1
2 .m
2 .ext
2 .exe.manifest.in
1 .sh
1 .rc
1 .plist.in
1 .mm
1 .macros.cmake
1 .info
1 .image
1 .ico
1 .h.in
1 .CMakeLists.cmake.in
1 .6b2
The files are there to generate 3 artifacts inside dist, which are then compressed to distribute: the .app executable, the include and the pharo-vm directory with all the sources including the generated sources (to generate in a system without Pharo).
You meant moving those directories to another location?
I think we should just document the different things that are produced, with the directory structure.
