Dear Developers,

I'm updating my R installation via svn (currently: Revision 44626). For
some time now (sorry don't know the exact revision number) make for R
devel yields the following error

You need to start a clean build: you are updating from a rather old one.
Try something like

make distclean
./configure
make

In some cases (and this was one) if you update every day it may work, but in a few cases you will need to rebuild from scratch after a change.


make[4]: *** Keine Regel vorhanden, um das Target
»../../../src/include/R_ext/GraphicsBase.h«,
 benötigt von »g_fontdb.o«, zu erstellen.  Schluss.

(translation: no rule to make target ... needed from ...)

The file "g_fontdb.d" (and also g_her_glyph.d) has the last line
../../../src/include/R_ext/GraphicsBase.h

Is this line obligate due to 1) in
https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/270update.txt
?

At least, if I remove this last line in these two files make runs
without an error.
Is there another explanation for this error?

Thanks for your help!
Matthias
