Ukkonen >Release: FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE i386 >Organization: Sonera Ltd. / Internet Services >Environment: FreeBSD-2.2.8 & the default `make' utility >Description: The `make' command does not understand the library object syntax on the target side of the rules. >How-To-Repeat: Try one of the following (snatched from "Managing Projects with make" by A. Oram & S. Talbot) make /usr/lib/libc.a'(printf.o)' or make /usr/lib/libc.a'((_printf))' These should echo "`printf.o' is up to date." You could also create a Makefile with the contents library(object) : echo $% The latter should echo "object". >Fix: No real fix found yet. This can be partially bypassed by using gmake, which understands the "libc.a(printf.o)" syntax, but reports an unsupported feature on "libc.a((_printf))". >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: rule To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
