started a new discussion:

<p dir="auto">Daiki Ueno <a href="https://gitlab.com/dueno" data-user="470892" data-reference-type="user" data-container="body" data-placement="bottom" class="gfm gfm-project_member" title="Daiki Ueno">@dueno</a> commented 2 weeks ago</p>

<blockquote dir="auto">

<p>I guess such situation could be effectively avoided if:</p>

<pre class="code highlight js-syntax-highlight plaintext" lang="plaintext" v-pre="true"><code><span id="LC1" class="line" lang="plaintext">we check the installed libopts version and</span>

<span id="LC2" class="line" lang="plaintext">fallback to use the bundled libopts if the system libopts is older</span></code></pre>

<p>Still, the user might want to link against the (older) system libopts. In that case, however, I think he wouldn't mind removing .stamp manually.</p>

</blockquote>

<p dir="auto">Sorry for following up late.

Did you check whether this test (system libopts >= tarball libopts) is sufficient? Or is it documented that files autogened by autogen X can safely be used with libopts X, X+1, etc?</p>

<p dir="auto">I am not completely sure but I think only these two scenarios are safe:

a) use prebuilt autogened files to link statically against tarball included libopts tearoff

b) Use locally installed autogen to regenerate everything and link against locally installed libopts</p>
