Follow-up Comment #3, bug #58639 (project make): I changed the text like this; hopefully it's more understandable now:
target pattern that matches the file name, @emph{and} all prerequisites in that rule either exist or can be built. The rules you write take precedence over those that are built in. Note however, -that a rule whose prerequisites actually exist or are mentioned always -takes priority over a rule with prerequisites that must be made by -chaining other implicit rules. +that a rule which can be satisfied without chaining other implicit +rules (for example, one which has no prerequisites or its +prerequisites already exist or are mentioned) always takes priority +over a rule with prerequisites that must be made by chaining other +implicit rules. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58639> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
