Details:
:: Software ::
Debian 3.14 Kali
OS 10.10 Yosemite
Mint 17
Make 3.81
:: Steps to reproduce ::
1. Create a directory called foo.
2. Create a file with in directory foo called foo.cpp.
3. Create a Makefile foo's parent directory with these contents
all: foo
foo:
g++ ./foo/foo.cpp -o ./foo/foo
4. Run make in foo's parent directory.
:: Actual Behavior ::
Running `make` reports "Nothing to be done for all". Running `make foo`
reports that "Foo is up to date". Nothing gets compiled.
:: Expected Behavior ::
Make should compile foo.cpp or produce some sort of error message if it can't
compile foo.cpp.
