Hi,
I was puzzled by the following different behaviour of
GNU make 3.79.1 (in comparison with 3.78.1). Consider the
makefile:
# GNU makefile, target specific variables.
TMP=A
all : TMP+=B
all : TMP+=C
all :
echo $(TMP)
The "old" GNU make 3.78.1 seems to work properly:
pgu@paul-51>gmake.new -f gmakefile
echo A B C
A B C
To my opinion there is a bug in 3.79.1, which does the following:
pgu@paul-54>gmake -f gmakefile
echo A C
A C
(gmake.new is the old gmake 3.78.1 despite its name!)
Hope this helps.
Yours,
Tim Brunne
