Would you have it complain that commands.mli,v, RCS/commands.mli,v, RCS/commands.mli, s.commands.mli and SCCS/s.commands.mli were missing? The existence of any of those would have let make build commands.mli, hence commands.cmo. You can have it do that, with make --debug=all. You'll see it tries harder than you'd imagine, even searching for a rule that could update your makefile to fix the problem. Can you come up with a specification for finding which of the possible missing dependencies is the one that you actually care about? _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
