Follow-up Comment #31, bug #48643 (project make): Paul, in update 27 i added 2 patches. sv48643_exp_preqreq_is_not_interm.diff has a fix for example 6. sv48643_exp_preqreq_is_not_interm_tests.diff has related tests.
Not sure, if you decided not to apply these 2 patches or they fell through the cracks. You introduced another change in commit 6682fb. This change in commit 6682fb causes example 6 to succeed even when sv48643_exp_preqreq_is_not_interm.diff is not applied. However, without sv48643_exp_preqreq_is_not_interm.diff pat->is_explicit has incorrect value of 0 in cases like example 6. This incorrect value of pat->is_explicit now goes unnoticed with this new assigment f->is_explicit |= imf->is_explicit || pat->is_explicit; , because f->is_explicit is set in enter_prereqs. My concern is that this incorrect value of pat->is_explicit can manifest itself in some other scenario or after a change is introduced. For example, this incorrect value is assigned to dep->is_explicit = pat->is_explicit; a few lines below. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?48643> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
