I hit a Makefile issue (that wasn't there in dnsmasq-2.60test10):

This leads to:

Makefile:38: *** missing separator. Stop.

Apparently it doesn't like the first TOP line.

I might be building it wrong. I'm using Gentoo Linux, and I copied and
tweaked the ebuild that I used for test10, which was copied and tweaked
from the ebuild for the previous release.


Sigh. Writing portable makefiles is a thankless task. I tested this on Gnu-make and BSD make. What flavour/version on make are you using.

Related question: BSD people. Would you care if I gave up the fight and required GNU-make to build dnsmasq?

Cheers,

Simon.
