The problem is with the last rule you defined because a rule to generate test-stop.log would have already been generated by Automake and this would override it. I tested in my own source tree and confirmed that: automake-1.16: warnings are treated as errors Makefile.am:200: warning: user target 'Init_d_Stop.sh.log' defined here ... /usr/share/automake-1.16/am/check2.am: ... overrides Automake target 'Init_d_Stop.sh.log' defined here make: *** [Makefile:1156: ../Makefile.in] Error 1 -- Kip Warner | Senior Software Engineer OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com
