Hello, I got some special software development experiences by the usage of the program “GNU Make 4.2.1-1.7” on my openSUSE Tumbleweed system. The functionality “Generating prerequisites automatically” is desribed in the manual. I would like to check again how good this works at the moment.
I am trying also a software out where such build dependencies are provided by the tool “ocamldep”. Unfortunately, I observe still broken build tries because of missing files which should have been built before. I started to “fix” this for my needs by the addition of small make functions which construct extra rules. But it seems that such special stuff should usually not be needed according to the documentation. I would appreciate further advice for this issue. Are there any difficulties (or open issues) to consider for the handling of make rules with empty recipes?
