Follow-up Comment #2, bug #56732 (project make):
Thanks for looking at this. Make supports linker flags as dependencies of a
recipe and automatically searches for the .a/.so file using VPATH. See the
relevant section of the manual, 4.5.6 "Directory Search for Link Libraries".
I should have emphasised that this *does* work if it's *not* a pattern rule.
In other words, if you replace this line:
output/% : input/%.in -lAbc
with:
output/example : input/example.in -lAbc
then the recipe works as expected (but, obviously, only for a file named
"example"; unfortunately in my use case I need to build an arbitrary set of
files, i.e. I need a pattern rule).
