Bashims are in maintainer scripts and the like, not Makefiles. It is usual to avoid bashims in the code called in a $(shell) construct though. > Reading > http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Shell-Function > I found the "$(shell command parms)" . > But it still leaving EXT_DIR empty. > Please, what am I doing wrong? > > # EXT_DIR=`/usr/bin/php-config --extension-dir`; > EXT_DIR = $(shell /usr/bin/php-config --extension-dir); You don't need the semicolon at the end, but I have just tried something similar and it worked.

Some obvious things to rule out. 1) /usr/bin/php-config --extension-dir produces no output 2) It produces output on stderr (I believe this wont be caught. 3) The value is overriden by the environment. I hope this helps, but if not someone with more make skills might be able to help.
