_______________________________________________________
Details:
I have a Makefile using pattern rules with multiple targets. Some of the
targets are intermediate, and used on other targets.
GNU make does not identify those files are intermediate: it does not remove
them after building the targets, and it rebuild everything if they are
deleted.
In order to test the provided MWE, please execute:
make source
which will create the example source files.
In the provided MWE, if you execute:
make
(or make all)
this will create an intermediate file my.int. This file will not be deleted
after make has finished. If you delete the file manually, next execution of:
make
will rebuild everything.
