order-only dependencies do not work very well in implicit rules.
This quick&dirty patch may fix the problem :
--- implicit.c.orig 2002-09-04 09:26:19.0 +0200
After a little more digging, it looks like mf1 "works" because it's the first rule
that gets triggered, not the second. Unfortunately, in my particular case, having the
first rule triggered will cause the wrong action to take place.
Here's what I see with "gmake -npqr":
# Implicit Rules
../in
I'm getting the following output:
$ ls -ld ../install/common/.
drwxr-x---5 yapn morgan 96 Nov 9 16:52 ../install/common/./
$ ls -ld ../install/common/make/.:
ls: ../install/common/make/.\:: No such file or directory
$ cat mf2
install.DIR := ../install
$(install.DIR)/common/%
