Looking at my qmake generated Makefile for libmythtv:
|clean: mocclean
| -$(DEL_FILE) $(OBJECTS)
| -$(DEL_FILE) *~ core *.core
|distclean: clean
| -$(DEL_FILE) $(TARGET) $(TARGET)
| -$(DEL_FILE) $(TARGET0) $(TARGET1) $(TARGET2) $(TARGETA)
This tells me that a 'make clean' will delete all the compiled .c and
.cpp files (OBJECTS) + any core dumps produced in that directory + *~.
The makefile target distclean will also delete the linked library
(TARGET*) in addition to the stuff that clean does.
