Hi All,

I'm using the parallel make (see my previous parallel/distcc compilation 
patchset). I noticed that a lof packages use the following make invocation:

$(MAKE) all install

"all" followed by "install" target.

In general this is not correct for the following:

 1) Not all Makefiles have a rule like "install: all" to assure the correct 
sequence
 2) gmake doens't assure that the targets sequence in the command line will be 
respected
 3) parallel make will file for 1) and 2)

I would like to see all packets that use this poor practices to convert the 
single make call to distinct make invactions:

 $(MAKE) all
 $(MAKE) install

This simple rule assures to cover the previous 1) 2) 3) points.

I hope that this mail is useful for the future developments.

Best regards,

luigi
