An example.
$ cat Makefile
foo = bar baz
luser = dan
su_luser = su - $(luser) -c
target1:
sudo make target2
sudo $(su_luser) "make foo='$(foo)' target2"
target2:
echo $(foo)
$ make
sudo make target2
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/dan'
echo bar baz
bar baz
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dan'
sudo su - dan -c "make foo='bar baz' target2"
echo bar baz
bar baz
$ make foo=bif
sudo make target2
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/dan'
echo bif
bif
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dan'
sudo su - dan -c "make foo='bif' target2"
echo bif
bif
I think this is the preferred way to pass variables to sub-makes anyway.
