Follow-up Comment #3, bug #22434 (project make): Your testcase is way too complex to be convenient - it would be more helpful if you could make a self-contained example, rather than requiring people to install Hg and then clone your repository and then autoconf a makefile and only /then/ be able to even /start/ looking at the problem.
So this is only a guess, but it sounds like you've missed or misread the part of the manual that explains that all dependencies are always supposed to be prerequisites, and if you just want a goal as a dependency that doesn't make a target file of the same name, you have to list it as a .PHONY target. Are you simply missing a .PHONY declaration to tell make that "Pokme" isn't the name of a real output file? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?22434> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
