I have a series of rules like this in my Makefile:
$(ROOT)etc/dir1/%: $(ROOT)etc/dir1/%: %
cp $< $@
chmod 644 $@
$(ROOT)etc/dir2/%: $(ROOT)etc/dir2/%: %
cp $< $@
chmod 644 $@
...
$(ROOT)etc/dirN/%: $(ROOT)etc/dirN/%: %
cp $< $@
chmod 644 $@
Is there a way to write all of these static pattern rules with one rule?
When I did a google search on this I saw that there was a patch submitted
for that back in 1997, but there is no documentation in the make manuals
that suggests that this feature has been incorporated into gnu make.
Thanks for any info?
