The Tools/Scripts/make-dist script gained an --unified/-u command line flag in 272404@main so we could check the value of ENABLE_UNIFIED_BUILDS and pass it accordingly. Then using build-webkit to generate releases like this: Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --wpe --makeargs=distcheck --no-unified-builds Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --wpe --makeargs=distcheck --unified-builds would also result in doing the build from the generated tarball unified or not depending on the CMake setting and whether --[no-]unified-builds was used with build-webkit. The main motivation for this is that we typically care about non-unified builds for stable releases, but we may want to skip checking them for development releases which are cut from the “main” branch (specially when the build is tricky to fix), and this makes it easier to choose what the script should do.
