That seems to be a bug. I can reproduce it. On the other hand I can do this: $ touch 'foo(bar)baz' $ make 'foo(bar)baz.t' and I don't get this error: it actually runs the rule, so it's not just parentheses. I wonder if it has to do with archive support. This should be reported on Savannah. > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/make-2006-11-30$ make 'bracket('.t > bla bla bla > make: bla: Command not found > make: *** [.bracket(.time] Error 127 This is perfectly legitimate, and not an error in make (Dan's original example didn't have a real command to run in the event it actually worked). _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
