Also, it becomes unreliable when used inside phases and other phases begin to rely on it. 193 194 Please use absolute paths instead, starting with ${worksrcpath}. If you need to run a command with `system`, use it like `system "cd ${worksrcpath} && autoreconf"`. 195 190 196 === What is the process for becoming a committer? === 191 197
