Update of bug #34310 (project make):
Status: None => Not A Bug
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
Make cannot give such an error. You think it can because you already know
what the answer _should_ have been so it seems obvious to you, but make
doesn't know that answer. Make may try hundreds of different suffix and
pattern rules looking for a rule that can build a given target: there's no
way, since no rule matches, to know what rule it "should" have found and hence
no way to choose what message to print.
If you want to see all the different ways make tried to find a rule to build a
given target, that's already available via the debug output.
