Follow-up Comment #3, bug #56064 (project make): I can't say whether that SO-referenced issue still exists or has been fixed, but your example usages of setting .SHELLFLAGS are all incorrect. They are all missing the -c option, which you must provide to the shell otherwise it thinks that the argument you gave is a filename, not a command to run. See the shell man page.
Consider: $ /bin/bash -e 'echo hi' /bin/bash: echo hi: No such file or directory $ /bin/bash -ec 'echo hi' hi _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56064> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
