I tried running make scriptsinstall from my build directory. It failed with this error message: error: file 'byteyears.py' does not exist I added os.path.abspath() around the source file name in the error message. It's looking for byteyears.py in the current directory. From where I executed make it's in ../Tools/scripts. I'm not sure it would work if executed from the top-level source directory either.

Set to needs patch as I don't see why you need a unit test for this build issue, feel free to change it back if you see fit.

I have no intention of finding out what is in the 48 attached html files :(

Closing as out of date. Too much spam in this issue.
