vpath's and included makefiles

GNU Make 3.79.1 on AIX & Linux So, vpath's don't seem to work for locating 'include' makefiles. For example, you can't do this: vpath %.d directory -include src1.d src2.d src3.d Is this by design? Otherwise, any hints on how to go about adding this would be appreciated. (Or consider th

Re: Misleading RCS behaviour

I don't agree that "zog.c" below should end up in the source tree (foo). The reason that configure was designed to be able to generate a separate "build tree" (bar) was to support the idea of a read-only source tree. If "zog.c" were generated into foo, then a read-only source tree would not be

I never got a response on this. Thought I'd try one more time before diving into the code. Anyone gots some comments? Tom. tom_honermann

Intermediate file woes

Running GNU Make 3.79.1 on a RedHat Linux 6.2 system I've got two issues: 1) Explicit intermediate files (Those listed as pre-reqs of .INTERMEDIATE) will get deleted even if make did not create them. This is not-consistant with how make deals with non-explicit intermediate files. Here's an exa

gmake hanging on Solaris 2.7

I'm running into a problem with two gmake processes hanging (parent/child) on a Sun Sparc running Solaris 2.7 using gmake 3.79.1. I'm just starting to debug this now, I'm wondering if anyone has seen this or has some hints for me. Here's the stack traces: Parent: (/opt/SUNWspro/bin/../WS6U1/

Nevermind, stupid environment problem. Sorry for disturbing you all. Everyone go back to sleep now. Nothing to look at here... Tom. tom_honermann

GNU Make ends up invoking "make"

Hello! I'm running GNU Make 3.79.1 on AIX 4.3.3 and am running into the following problem: GNU Make is on disk as "gmake". When "gmake" gets invoked for a makefile it turns around and does an exec of "make" gmake -d shows it invoking "make" while trying to do a "remake" (See output below) The

AIX & GNU Make Issue

I'm running GNU Make 3.79.1 on an AIX 4.3.3.0 system and running into the following problem. I'm trying to convert from the system make to GNU make. I have a Makefile that does nothing but call a shell script: (This is a test case scaled down from the original Makefile) Makefile: all:

Re: Unable to build gmake 3.79.1 on AIX 4.3.3.0

Beautiful, thank you! I had untarred the source on one system so I could have it moved around with other sources that we build. The way the sources get moved around would not have preserved timestamps, so that is definitely the problem with the first case. The second case (--disable-nls) may b

Unable to build gmake 3.79.1 on AIX 4.3.3.0

I've been trying to compile GNU make 3.79.1 on an AIX 4.3.3.0 system and have so far been unable to. The problems I've run into are all related to the I18N support recently added. I've tried building with and without NLS support. Here's the results: ./configure > >checking whether NLS
