Dear maintainer:

During a rebuild of all packages in unstable, this package failed to build.

The failure happens randomly, approximately 50% of the time on machines with 2 CPUs.

Full build log is available here:

https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202610/

The problem is a race condition in the Makefile. Target "all" depends
on both "clean" and "gresource", like this:

all: clean gresource

but this does not specify any order, so they can run in parallel, which makes
"clean things" to be run at the same time as "build and/or install things".

There is not, in fact, any need to run the clean target here. Debian packages
already run the clean target before starting the build.

The attached patch might fix this, it also uses mkdir -p so that creating
directories is idempotent.

Thanks.
